    And there it is! I’ve never tried Kevin Murphy’s volume cream so that looks like something I should pic up. I actually purposely had the formula for ascend feel like there’s something in your hair - like a little density which I quite liked and thought separated it from the vast amount of volumizing products that felt nearly like a “placebo” affect rather than actually doing much, (granted I haven’t tried your favorites you mentioned). Thanks for checking it out 🤙🏼

    I think you’re right Robin, to where you mention that on the reviews most people say that this product is life changing, that it’s their first volume cream they’ve tried. This is the same experience that I’ve had. After trying many things for volume even down to sea salt sprays, Ascend was the first volume cream that I’ve tried and I think it’s a perfect balance of volume without the tackiness. And yes, I agree thee is a slight weight to it, but I like the fact that I can “feel” that it’s doing it’s thing. Anyways, great review Robin! I’ll see you in the next one

  • @azured909

      J Mateö Just trying to add a bit of tonality to me talking about a hair cream. I liked it.

    Even if it was good, I would be afraid the smell would be as bad as the other products from the BluMaan line. Hybrid cream clay actually seemed like a good product for my fine hair type, but I smelled that 1980's budget bar soap all day. It was so overpowering it actually caused a bit of nausea. The matte paste was even worse, with the cheap drug store cologne type fragrance that would not go away even after washing my hair. Joe seems like a nice guy with a lot of knowledge on hair, but I simply don't trust the BluMaan brand after my last purchase... Their "pomade" works great as a hair mask though.
    I've been using the Kevin Murphy anti gravity cream for several months now and I don't see how it would be possible to make a product much better than that... other than making the same product without fragrance.

      Ascend actually has a very different scent, it's very fresh and mild, you can't really smell it once it's in your hair.

    That's exactly why I didn't enjoy this product. It made it felt crispy and rough. I wanted my hair to be lifted but still soft.

      Same. Thin/fine hair type here, and that result was disappointing.

    It depends on what hair texture you want. The anti-gravity makes your hair drier finish while cream category provide smoother and thicker finish. Mousse provide separate texture and makes your hair sticker. The length of this video or testing is too brief. It will be better if Robin gives more explanation on the type of products because it’s better to compare products in same category. Also, can also show how does your hair hold after you went out all day.
