Again, this product was designed in such a way that it gives loads of volume without you having to compromise on shine and healthy looking hair, because the smart people of John Frieda added small little round polymers so the mix so that you will have amazing volume. This product also will not strip your hair of it's natural oil layer to achieve the volume you want, so your hair will still be healthy and shiny. The conditioner is also very soothing on your scalp and the fresh scent always lifts me up.
