"This works really well for my senior citizen, fine and thinning hair with a curl pattern of 2a to 3a.

"Although I love the volume this product gives my hair, I absolutely hate the smell. I have baby-fine hair that tends to lay limp unless I use a volumizer. After trying countless products, I found this one actually works, so I tolerate the odor for those good hair days! Thankfully, the smell fades after drying."

"I have beautiful hair, but it's so soft and silky that I can never achieve body. This root lift is exactly what I've been searching for; it gives me lift and body.

"After using various products, I finally found one that works. This Matrix spray gives me fantastic volume without making my hair feel heavy or sticky. I love how my hair looks and how it lasts an extra day without needing to be washed!"

“I have thin, curly hair and was already using Catwalk Curl Enhancer with great results, but I needed something to give my hair a thicker appearance. I was hesitant about trying the root booster because I thought it might be too much product, but I’m so glad I did! It’s a bit pricey, which held me back at first. I apply the curl enhancer first, let my hair dry, then use the root booster and blow dry my roots. It dries in about 5 minutes and has a light, pleasant scent. It adds so much volume that my hair looks thick, and there’s no stickiness at all. I love how my hair looks, smells, and feels!”

“I really love this product; just a small amount makes my hair look fuller. However, it did arrive with the nozzle disconnected, and despite trying several methods to reattach it, I couldn’t get it to work. I reached out to the vendor but didn’t receive a reply.”
