Amika Plus Size Mousse: Alcohol free?

[norgegirlot]

Hi! I'm just started using Amika Plus Size Perfect Body Mousse and am curious to know if this contains alcohol? I know there are 'good' & 'bad' kinds of alcohol, but am unsure which this falls into. I'm worried about it drying out my hair. Thanks!

@norgegirlot I don't see alcohol listed in the ingredients list on sephora.com, but IDK if the ingredient list is exhaustive on the site.  You can always contact Amika directly. 

Side note: I haven't seen a mousse in years and years that has alcohol in it, though.  If you know of any, please tell me!  I actually like mousses with alcohol in them b/c I need that degree of hold.  As for alcohol drying out your hair, I think that remains a controversial topic.  Many believe that it does, which is why many companies have removed it from their product.  However, I have also read that "denatured alcohol" isn't harmful to hair, and that it is water soluble.  I'm sure in the end it comes down to each person's individual hair type and preference.  Just like how some people like silicones and some don't.

Good luck!  🙂

Thank you for your thoughts! I don't know why I didn't think about contacting the company. I'll see what they say! 🤞🏻
