I use Kerastat heat protectant or Pantene Miracle Rescue. Both are great.

Well thanks for pointing out that it’s an old thread. I didn’t check the date. Guess I’ll take the one I thought I’d try out of my Amazon cart.

What product for “bouncy volume” of thinner hair?


Aveda volumizing tonic for root lift. It’s amazing.

Look at what the person who resurrected it wrote. We’re not dealing with smart people here.

Jeff explained this somewhere. It has to do with Google and it showing old threads.

I have long blonde 2b hair that is highlighted.

I use aveda nutriplenish leave in conditioner and then aveda be curly curl enhancer if I air dry. Sometimes, but very rarely, I’ll use the diffuser on my hair dryer (Dyson) and I’ll use these same products.

When I blow it straight I use Redken 25 on wet hair, comb it through, and dry with my head upside down until it is about 80% dry. Then I section and spray with Color Wow Dream Coat and dry each section, pulling it straight with a round brush.

Days between washes I work some argan oil onto the ends.


I have the same long blonde 2b hair that is very fine. I have a large sample of the Color Wow Dream Coat but haven't tried it because I fear it would be to heavy and oily on my fine hair. Is that not the case?

Y'all spend too much time on your hair, not happening.

If it bothers you so much that a thread was revived, why don't y'all take your but somewhere else to discuss y'all hair issues.

28 bucks for a tiny bottle but it lasts about 8 weeks and it's my "if I was stranded on a desert island" product!
I use before and after blow drying. Before for protection and taking away frizz...after for shine.

A lot of people like the argon oil stuff. I found it weighed my hair down, and didn't give me the shine Brilliance gives me. But u might try that first since it's cheap...it might work for you.

I have long, very thick hair prone to dryness.


Which one is it, PP? There seem to be quite a few different Aveda Brilliance options. Is it this?

Good luck getting an answer from that PP. That post was over a decade ago. The products probably aren't even the same anymore.

I also love Alterna cc cream. I heard about it here. It is all purpose like a bb cream. You can use for leave in conditioning, pre-heat protection, or to smooth down dry hair. I love it.


I assume it's intended for curling iron or straightener.
