The Mousse That Doesn't Mess Around

There are few things in life I trust without hesitation -

• My mom when she says “just try this bite”

• That one pair of jeans that always fits, no matter the chaos

• And now, True Frog’s Volumizing Mousse.

  
  

Because listen.

Humidity is a personality trait where I live.

You oil, you wash, you style, you pray.

And two hours later, you look like a frizzy Greek tragedy.

Been there, lived there, got the blurry selfies to prove it.

So I didn’t expect a mousse (a mousse!!) to become the hero of this story.

But here we are :)

But What Does It Do?

• Gives amazing hold (like, it stays, gurl)

• Adds fabulous volume without the drama

• Makes you question why you were buying gels all these years

• Survives monsoon humidity

• Leaves a nice, gentle “crunch” (don’t panic, that’s a good thing)

It’s one of those rare styling products that looks like it’s going to be light and useless, and then totally delivers.

The Nerdy Part

I did some sleuthing because I love ya'll, and here’s what turned up on this mousse’s secret sauce -

💧Aqua - The base for nearly all hair foams.

🩹Maltodextrin / VP Copolymer - The film-former aka the 'glue' that gives you hold without hardness.

🌱Marshmallow Root Extract (Althea Officinalis) - Adds slip, moisture, and that ‘cloud-like’ glide when applying, and helps curls not look crunchy or chunky.

🌺Hibiscus Flower Extract - Brings shine, softens, and shapes curls with definition.

⚡Polyquaternium‑110 - A lightweight cationic polymer that boosts volume, bounce, and elasticity. In other words, the secret behind those root-lifts.

🧴Hydroxyethyl Urea - Humectant that maintains moisture, so your curls don’t go straw‑dry in 5 minutes!

🍦Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine - Gentle surfactant to help the mousse foam and spread evenly.

🪟Dehydroacetic Acid & Benzyl Alcohol - Safe preservatives, keeps the bottle fresh and barf‑free.

How To Use It

1. Wash your hair per usual (detailed steps here!)

2. Plop your wet hair in a microfibre towel or a cotton tshirt

3. Once the excess water is gone, take 2 pumps of the mousse and evenly spread it on your hair, and scrunch

4. repeat this till all sections of your hair is coated.

5. Let it airdry/use a diffuser - whichever u prefer.

6. Once your hair is dry, use 2-3 drops of oil to remove the crunch.

7. Shake your hair and voila! volume 💪

Frankly, curly hair routine has given me amazing arm strength.

But this product has saved me a lot of time, effort, money and patience!

My Final Thoughts

From someone who used to hoard gels, I used to believe good hold = hard gel.

I used to think volume = frizz.

I used to believe mousse was for runway models and 90s shampoo ads.

I was wrong.

This mousse proved me wrong.

And now, my bathroom shelf is just quietly adjusting to its new queen.

Try it once.

Judge me later.

And if you hate it, you didn’t hear it from me 😋

Much love,

Sejal
