Product Review:


I’m a huge Alterna fan and I’m always anxious to try their newest products! The Bamboo line is the new version of their “Life” line. I was disappointed to see the old stuff go but I’m impressed with the new stuff!

I used to use the Alterna Life Volumizing Spray Mousse & it was awesome but the new Bamboo Weightless Whipped Mousse is just as good if not better. I do miss the spray form but it was always getting clogged so this is probably better anyways.

Your hair will have great hold without feeling sticky or crunchy and won’t weight it down. Remember that a little goes a long way!  I use this mousse when i let my hair dry naturally with Alterna’s Boho Wave Spray. It gives a great summer look if you have any natural texture or curl!
