Customer Reviews of Bumble and Bumble Styling Creme, 8-Ounce Bottle
Customer Review: They changed the formulation. It SUCKS.
Summary: 1 Stars
I've used bumble and bumble's Styling Creme for eight years, and it was the best product ever. In early 2007 they changed the formulation, and now it does absolutely nothing. No hold, no added texture. It feels like the original product when your hair is wet, but once it's dried, it feels like you have nothing on your hair...and I don't mean that in a good way.
I've compared the new bottle with the old, and the ingredients are dramatically changed. The list of ingredients is also much shorter.
Anyway, I requested a refund, and bumble and bumble sent me a prepaid envelope to send the product back. In fact, I just received my refund today, so at least they're honest. But I hope enough people tell them how their product sucks so they go back to the old formulation.
Customer Review: Functional but not the best
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this after watching the videos on Bumble & Bumble's website, and I do not think that it is worth so much money. It has the texture of a runny gel and only gives moderate hold (but the hold has great memory). It smells like tall grass and plastic (not pleasant in my opinion). I can brush my hair after using this and have both hold/memory and volume without flakes, BUT even though my hair still looks natural, it feels like it's coated with something synthetic and very lightly sticky. Before brushing my hair it has a fair bit of crunch to it for sure. I could see this being handy only for certain looks, but not for everyday - ergo, not worth the money in my case. Should have bought the 2oz version (or just something else).Customer Review: love this stuff - new formula works for me
Summary: 5 Stars
I've used the old formula for years and now the new one for a month now. I have very fine hair that otherwise looks like 'little girl' hair without this product. It looks like I have nothing in my hair but it gives my hair guts and some lift - it looks esp. good the 2nd day. It's also good for giving my blow dryer a rest - I can just comb my hair into place and let it dry naturally. I also like that there is not lasting fragrance - I've chucked many a product because of the perfumey smell. Anyway I find the new formula really nice it's thinner and easier for me to distribute in my hair - it also seems to give me a bit more lift. Usually I hate when a product I love changes, reformulates whatever... but this one works for me.Customer Review: Disappointed!
Summary: 1 Stars
This is the first time I've used B&B Styling Creme, so I'm not a disgruntled user of the previous formula. I've been trying to find a product to replace the wonderful but discontinued Matrix Quality Control, and hoped this was it. My hair is fine and thin, and my plan was to create some volume and manageability with this product. What I ended up with was sticky hair which was almost impossible to comb through, felt stiff and looked dried-out, yet at the same time was FULL of unmanageable static. It was so bad I had to wash it out of my hair and start over with some of the last little bit of Quality Control I have. I won't give up my search, but this one is definitely not going to work for me.Customer Review: Superb performance; one little problem...
Summary: 5 Stars
My stylist used this product on my (wavy, unruly and cow-licky) hair the last time I was in for a cut. I was impressed that the product kept my hair exactly as she had styled it, but without being sticky or "hard-hat" like. I went back to the salon the next day to buy some for myself.
The *only* problem is that I think that it smells horrible when you put it on. It dries without much of an odor, but it smells like melting plastic when you rub it on your hands and hair. One of the ingredients is vinyl so I guess that is what you get. However, it still rates 5 stars as it is the best styling product I have ever used.
