Bumble and Bumble Texture Hair (un)Dressing Crème: Unsuccessfully Undressed

bbtexutre_hair_undressing_creme.jpg

Bumble and Bumble has a knack for coming out with unique and super-specific hair products, some kinder to your locks than others. Like Brilliantine, even explaining on the tube that it’s “hard to define,” which gives you soft, sexy bedhead tendrils. With all the fuss surrounding their new “(un)Dressing” crème, I had to give it a shot, even though I’ve never particularly yearned for second-day, matte-texture hair (my hair is thick enough as it is).

The label instructs you to apply sparingly through damp hair and build up the product in increments. I eased in cautiously, using no more than a small dollop altogether (maybe just a little more than the amount of toothpaste you’d put on a toothbrush). I wanted to like this product, I really did, but all it gave me was messier, almost gritty hair that was prone to tangling. The crème does increase volume, so it’s definitely better for softer and thinner heads of hair. And if you’re speeding full-force towards a grunge-look, this would definitely have a place at your vanity. Call me old-fashioned, but I guess my hair just likes to be dressed! At Bumble and Bumble for $26.

  1. Kelly!

    YES! I wanted to love this product too! I really wanted to love it. And I was so sad that everyone else has given it rave reviews and I just couldn’t get it to work on my hair. And I even have the soft, fine hair you were suggesting it might work for. It made my hair really tangle-y and didn’t do anything for it. It made it kink a little, but not in that perfect beach-y way. I think I’ll stick with the Surf Spray! I’m glad I’m not the only one it didn’t work for!

  2. No no.. Don’t use it the way it says on the instruction. I tried this and my hair’s very short but I like it messy.

    Use it on damp hair and seriously use a TINY bit on the roots to mid length and then keep on scrunching. It’ll help if you flip your head upside down. Then as your hair dries, just keep on pushing your roots upwards. If you wish, use a little hair oil/serum on the ends to make them nice and healthy looking!

    Hope this helps!
