No, not from the air we breathe but from O2-infused ingredients that supposedly give a moisture and volume boost.

A common problem: Hydrating hair products weigh your tresses down, but volumising ones dry them out. Why? Well, the former are often packed with oils and creams, while the latter tend to have moisture-absorbing ingredients to prevent limpness caused by excess grease.
The compromise? Dove’s new Volume and Nourishment range, which coats each hair strand with its oxygen-infused ingredients to seal in the products’ hydrating benefits. What about volume, you ask? Well, these ingredients also have moisture-binding molecules that are said to swell in water – and will make each hair strand “swell up” as well. It’s good news for women with limp locks.
After using the shampoo ($8.50) and conditioner ($8.50) for two weeks, my hair appeared fuller, minus the frizz. It also managed to stay bouncy for the entire workday without falling flat by lunchtime.
For a quick fix, I’d recommend the Volume and Nourishment Root Lift Spray ($16.90). When spritzed onto my hair roots, it instantly gave my mane more body. The pleasant floral scent was a bonus.
