Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I wrap my hair to stretch my natural curls/waves. Wrapping requires less heat and hot tools on my hair to keep it straight. Hair wrapping uses your head like a roller to keep your flat-ironed hair straight overnight too and minimizes the need to flat-iron it again. (To get more general info on hair wrapping go to You Tube search for "wrap your hair and keep it straight overnight" and watch the video.)

Wrap lotions are similar to setting lotions for wrapping hair, wet sets, blow drying, and up dos. I am used to wrap sprays. This is the first time I used a foaming one. This foam is like a medium hold light mousse.

The Foaming Wrap Lotion didn't make my hair crispy or sticky like some other products. It made my hair shine, not as good as the commercials, but better than usual before applying shine serum or shine pomade. Overall the product is good BUT I don't like the scent which did die down but lingered.

My Directions:

Start with damp conditioned hair.

Part hair in 8 sections and clip each

Apply one pump of mousse to a section combed it through until all sections were completed.... use more if desired!

Proceed with the wrap process using hair clips, paddle brush and wrap scarf. Stay On Satin Natural Style Wrapping Scarf #1170

Let hair completely air dry OR use a hair dryer

Flat-iron hair as usual.

* Wrap hair overnight to maintain flat-ironed straight style and reduce hair breakage and tangles.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program You know what I'm talking about... that crispy crunchy texture to your hair that you get when you take your hair out of rollers when you have used wrap lotion.

I haven't used wrap lotion in years. But then I have not used rollers in years either. I didn't this time, either.

Motions hair products are generally marketed towards women of color, and people with similar hair care needs, i.e. African American and multi-racial hair types. I have seen many of their products to do with chemical straightening, but since I haven't done that in years, I've never tried any of them before this.

I intended to use this product along with Motions Naturally you Hair Gloss to prepare my hair for heat styling with a tourmaline flat iron, a device that puts out a tremendous amount of heat to straighten flat hair. Some of what follows appears in my review of the other product.

I started my test off by going to ground zero shampoo and wash with Pantene Smooth shampoo and conditioner for thick hair, cause that's what I have. Then I applied the gloss to my still wet hair, which is how I normally go about my normal 'drip-dry' style. I have a LOT of hair, long, and all of it ringlet-curly. Whatever you are imagining right now, double that. I used a generous amount, several pumps of the product worked between my palms then smoothed through my hair in sections and finger combed.

I followed this with the Motions foaming wrap lotion, same method of application. I was not expecting it to rival the control and definition of my normal combination of Pantene Pro-V Curly Mousse and Shea Moisture Conditioning Curl Milk (a combination meant to support a wash and wear style that does not require heat or any other styling), and it indeed did not.

What I expected is that it would leave my hair in a state ready for thermal styling with a flat iron, and afterward to hold and define the straightened style better. Which it did.

I was pleased by the non-crispy texture of my hair, but as I may have said in other reviews, I needed more moisture to keep my hair in line. So, this is probably not the best product for my intended use, even though it does say it's for thermal styling. I think it's still best used as a hair roller wrap.

This provided a very nice pre-ironed state. Prior to ironing, my hair was much pouffier mane than I normally wear it. It had the ringlets in a bright shine, and was ridiculously soft and touchable! Yet, it had enough definition and hold to not friz out, at least in winter weather. I wouldn't try this in the height of a mid-atlantic summer when I would probably not flat iron at all, or use a heavier moisturizer like Shea Moisture. For that kind of hold and definition, you'd really need to be looking at an entirely different product.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I have fine hair, and I am always looking for ways to add body...hairspray works, but it either leaves my hair crunchy or stiff, or both. I put this foaming lotion in my hair while it was still wet, and used a blow dryer. I didn't notice a difference at first, but when I used my curling iron, the curls held extremely well, and I was still able to run my fingers through my hair without losing any of the style. The best part was that my hair did NOT fall flat just a few hours later the style actually lasted a lot longer!

What I also enjoyed was the scent it kind of reminded me of Joico Shampoo with jojoba, but I didn't see it in the ingredients. In any case, it smelled great, and did not have a chemical scent like some hair products.

I'm thinking about trying more of the Motions product line now.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This styling FOAM is easy to use and to dispense exactly the amount you want (more for firm hold, less for light control.) It gave my LONG hair real body, shine and volume without any stiffness at all. I just combed it thru my damp hair, scrunched my hair a bit, and got a clean-looking, natural style. Recommended!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program My daughter reports that this product works well. She has a thick head of hair and she loves to set it in everything from a 1910s Gibson Girl hairdo to waves, etc. Sometimes hair products have a hard time making a difference because her hair is so thick, but this is a winner.

The pump bottle is also environmentally friendly...no propellants, and you get a full bottle, not one that's partially full of product and partially full of propellant.
