Mistake # 1: Thinking Foam and Mousse Are the Same
The foam has a denser texture - this product provides a stronger hold. Consider this when doing your daily styling. Be sure to read the information from the manufacturer - it is not just put on the label. Some products, for example, have good smoothing properties, some add volume, and some help create curls.
Mistake # 2: only use strong fixation

Strong hold products are good for thick hair, and are convenient to use before important events - when you need to be sure that the styling will last a long time! Go for lighter textures in your everyday life. They do not weigh hair down, do not stick together and leave them mobile, due to which the effect of naturalness is achieved. On bottles with foams and mousses there is always a number from 1 to 5. For owners of thin hair, products with markings from 1 to 3 are suitable.
Mistake # 3: apply foam or mousse to dirty hair
Foam and dry shampoo are not the same! These products are non-absorbent, absorbing excess sebum. Dirty hair can be made even more unkempt by styling products. They are applied only to clean, slightly towel-dried strands.
Mistake # 4: using too much product

For good fixation, a pea-sized product is enough. The rule "the more the better" in this case does not work. Especially if your hair is greasy and gets dirty quickly. Apply a small amount of foam or mousse to the roots, then spread over the entire length. After that, you can start drying with a hairdryer.
Mistake # 5: you distribute the foam poorly
Foam or mousse should be applied not only to the upper, but also to the lower hair, evenly distributing them along the length. This rule must be followed when creating curls. If ignored, styling won't last long.
