Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Wild Ginger Hydrocream Whip is a lightweight mousse that adds smooth, touchable volume.
This rich, creamy foam swells gently at the roots to lift fine or flat hair without leaving it stiff or crunchy. As you work it through damp strands, it feels silky and cushioned, with a light ginger-infused scent that smells clean and slightly spa-like.
The formula helps smooth frizz, define blow-dries, and give waves and curls a soft, bouncy shape. Hair dries with a satin finish that feels light, polished, and easy to style.
Perfect for anyone who wants fuller-looking hair that still moves, especially fine to medium textures. Use before blow-drying for everyday volume, special occasions, or any time your style needs extra body and control.
How To Use Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Wild Ginger Hydrocream Whip
- Shake can well before each use.
- Dispense a small amount of foam into your palm.
- Apply evenly through clean, towel-dried hair from roots to ends.
- Comb or finger-comb to distribute product.
- Blow-dry with a brush for smooth volume or diffuse for soft waves.
- Use a little more on longer or thicker hair if needed.
