Great hair spray!

I recently got this hair spray for my husband and I and we both love it, it has a long lasting hold. The scent isn't bad either for hair spray.

very nice

I really like this hair spray. I have pretty thick hair and I've found that this really does a good job of holding my hair in place without making it feel sticky and it doesn't give you that helmet head look either. The scent isn't terribly overpowering like someother hairsprays I've used in the past but it does have a strong scent to it. I only use this once in a great while so the can that I...read more have has lasted for a long time. This was a product recommended to me and I would honestly recommend it to others as well.

Excellent stuff

It's not too firming to the point where your hair feels stuck together . I like to lightly mist my long hair with this. It's just enough of a hold to last through out the day. I would not get this if you have an issue with hairspray that has fragrance to it. You can smell this from a mile away. Plus it's not on the natural side, so use sparingly so your hair doesn't dry out.

No IMPACT on the earths climate! Fabulous hair spray!

I really love this hair spray so much! I love a firm hair spray that can hold really well but also not look like stiff board either. So when I came across this I was so very happy and excited to be able to try this because I really love Aveda's hair products and all of there stuff! I have not had one problem yet with any of their products and they all smell so nice and last for a long time. They...read more always are giving out samples and you get hooked to their products which is how they get you right there to buy more. So anyways I fell in love with this and I used it and it did exactly what I wanted it to. I was able to brush my fingers right threw it and it felt so nice that I was shocked I even had hair spray in it. I freaken love this hair spray! The coolest thing I found that was a huge added bonus for me was I read on the back of the bottle it said it has a net-zero impact on the earths climate! I thought that was interesting because it is a aerosol which I always thought all aerosol's damaged the earth's climate! It just made me love it that much more and I was just so pleased with the results I would be silly to go back to my old hair sprays. There are just way too many more benefits to using this hair spray than any other one I have used or heard about honestly and this is my complete honest opinion I promise! I would have not said any of this if I did not mean it and I also want to let you know I have been using this for three weeks now.

SMELLS GROSS!!!

I purchased the small bottle of this hair spray at the salon I went to when I got my haircut yesterday. I paid $15 for the small can which I thought was RIDICULOUS considering it is the size of a travel hair spray you would buy at any drugstore. (the regular size can is $24) I'm glad that I didn't buy the regular size can though because while the product does work nice if you're looking for a f...read morelexible hold hair spray, IT SMELLS DISGUSTING. It's comparable (in my opinion) to an elderly woman's perfume. I did like the way I was able to layer it without it ever getting that "crunchy" look or feel but I think that if I do keep layering it I am going to go through it a lot quicker. The first spray you give your hair doesn't hold the style you spent all your time achieving so it's almost a guarantee that you are going to keep spraying it and wasting (in my opinion again) the product. And at $15 (for the small can) and $24 (for the regular can), you aren't going to want to waste the product (or your money!!). There are plenty of other flexible hold hair sprays that smell good and are A LOT lower in cost that will give you better results.

Strong Hold

I don't love hairspray, but some of my stylists have used this on me in the past, and it definitely has a strong hold. If I were interested in a hair-sprayed look, or needed to hold in an up-do, I would use this hairspray.

The Best

After numerous trys I have finally found my holy grail hair spray. It smells amazing and the hold is amazing without making my hair hard or crunchy. I can touch my hair through the day without even noticing the spray. I have also noticed that the spray prolongs my washes. If I spray right after drying then my hair doesn't get oily or flat for an extra day then without using the spray. Love love love it.

Multi-tasker

While this hairspray could have a stronger hold, it is still a great product. It can almost double as a dry shampoo for my oily hair. I also like to use it on my wet hair at the root for added lift. And you can't beat the smell, it's amazing!

Nice, but doesn't provide a long lasting hold.

Pros: Smells really nice. The mist is really fine and it does not make your hair hard or sticky at all. Cons: Doesn't seem to provide much of a hold. I only use hair spray when I curl my hair.
