What owners say

What people report

Recurring themes our researchers wrote in their own words from sourced reviews. We do not store or scrape star ratings, and we never balance one product’s themes against another’s by inventing them.

Living Proof Full Dry Volume & Texture Spray draws complaints about the packaging.

Turn It Up Hair Thickening Instant Volume Spray

Several reviewers compare the powdery texture and finish to a dry shampoo, and some use it as much for a refreshed feel as for volume.

Many reviewers point out it leaves no white cast or powdery residue, unlike other dry-shampoo-style volumizing products they have tried.

Reviewers consistently describe noticeable instant volume and root lift that does not weigh hair down, feel sticky, or feel stiff.

Reviewers repeatedly single out the sweet, marshmallow-like scent as one of their favorite things about the spray.

A few reviewers found the added volume faded faster than hoped in heat or humidity, or felt the hold turned stiff after brushing.

Full Dry Volume & Texture Spray

Dry-application format is preferred by curly-haired users because it adds root volume without re-wetting curls

Ulta reviewer (curly hair)

Refreshes second-day hair and extends time between washes

Ulta reviewer

Holds volume in place all day without pulling hair when removed

Ulta reviewer

Adds instant volume and texture without leaving hair sticky or crunchy

Ulta reviewer

Aerosol nozzle is hard to press down, a problem for users with arthritic hands

How this page was made

  • This page is assembled from the same researched records the individual product pages render: identity, each ingredient list as printed, each brand's own claims, dated price observations, and review themes written in our researchers' own words. Nothing on it is written per comparison.
  • We do not rank these against each other. Which of them suits you depends on your hair, and that is what the consultation works out.
  • The formula similarity percentage is a stored, precomputed number: position-weighted overlap of the two ingredient lists blended with agreement on the attributes we derive. It measures how alike two formulas are, not how well either works.
  • The value band is a fixed label over two stored numbers: this product’s cost per ounce as a percentile of every product of this type we have priced, each at the size it is most often sold in, and how many products we score as doing the same job cost at least a quarter less per ounce.
  • The "Is this right for you?" panel reads only your own consultation answers, and it applies exactly the filters our recommendation engine applies. It is computed when you load the page and is never stored on it.
  • 6 sources were consulted across the products on this page.
  • Ingredient order tells you relative amount only above roughly 1%. Prices are observations on the dates shown and change without notice. We do not sell these products and take no placement fees.
  • This is cosmetic information, not medical advice, and nothing here diagnoses or treats a health condition.
