AG Care Curl Retention Mousse Gel — Extra-Firm Styling Mousse for Curly, Wavy, Coily Hair | 10 fl oz, 98% Plant-Based

This mousse pairs a plant-forward Curl Creating Complex with a double-action mousse-gel texture to lock in shape and shine for wavy, curly, coily and kinky hair. Formulated to add volume and long-lasting hold while feeding the hair with rice amino acids, vegetable proteins, and calming botanicals, it builds definition without weighing strands down. The formula is 98% plant-based, vegan, and cruelty-free, designed for everyday styling, braid setting, or wash-and-go routines.

How does this mousse keep curls from falling flat?

The product combines a lightweight foam with gel-like filmers that create structure at the strand level, so curls keep their lift and spring. Unlike heavy creams, it distributes evenly for full-body hold and minimal residue.

• Extra-firm hold technology for all curl patterns
• Mousse-to-gel texture that sets shape without weighing hair
• Leaves no sticky or crunchy buildup when used as directed

Will it reduce frizz and increase shine?

Yes — amino acids from rice and vegetable proteins penetrate to smooth the cuticle, improving elasticity and surface reflection. Botanicals like chamomile, hops, and fennel add soothing moisture and a pleasant scent while helping control airborne frizz.

• Rice amino acids for cuticle smoothing and shine
• Botanical extracts to calm frizz and add natural gloss
• Non-greasy finish that enhances curl definition

How should I use it for best results?

Work the mousse into damp hair from roots to ends, rake or scrunch to form curl clumps, then air-dry or diffuse. For braids or twist-outs, apply on damp hair to set and let dry before releasing for long-lasting shape.

• Apply a golf-ball to palm-sized amount depending on hair density
• Distribute evenly using fingers, comb, or Denman brush
• Diffuse on low heat or air-dry to preserve hold and shine

Is this safe for color-treated or sensitive scalps?

The formula avoids sulfates, parabens, silicones, gluten, DEA, PABA and similar harsh ingredients, making it a gentle choice for many hair types. While it’s plant-based and minimal in irritants, always patch-test if you have a known sensitivity or open scalp wounds.

• 98% plant-derived ingredients and vegan-friendly
• No sulfates, parabens, silicones, gluten, DEA or PABA
• Formulated to minimize residue and scalp buildup

Who is this for? AG Care Extra Firm Curl Retention Mousse Gel suits anyone seeking strong, long-lasting curl hold without stiffness — from fine waves that need lift to thick coils that need structure and frizz control. It's ideal for people who prefer plant-forward formulations, want improved elasticity and shine from within the hair fiber, and need a versatile styling product for wash-and-go, twist-outs, or setting braids. Keep in mind: volume and hold levels can be adjusted by the amount applied and whether you air-dry or diffuse.
