20 Best Hairspray For Strong Hold (2023 Updated)

Another clogged nozzle. So tired of this. Agree with all those experiencing this problem and giving bad reviews. Just too expensive to keep throwing half the can away. This time its three quarters full and stupid big spurts are all that come out when I try to spray it.

You really do need to look into this matter and make a change. I have tried several remedies to unclog the nozzle sometimes it works most times it does not. I have even tried taking a nozzle from a working can and putting it on a clogged can still does not work.

I think there is something in the can that I cannot see that is clogged. So flustered! UGH!!!!! Anymore suggestions as to a solution to this problem besides hot water, storing upside down???.

The delivery was great! The price was great! However, sometimes (and this has happened to me twice) when more than one item is ordered (in this case I ordered three Sebastian Hard to Hold Hair Spray) it seems that one isn’t as good as it should be.

Last time I ordered three, two of them stop spraying when the can was half full. I always put the nozzle under running water before I spray to get rid of the residue, but to no avail. I haven’t used this order of spray yet as I just got it so I will see what it does.

I love Sebastian and the ordering was just great. Received quicker than I thought. And I would definitely order again.

I’ve used this product for 6 years or so and would buy in bulk during these sales so it took me a while to finally get a bad “batch”. Each can gets clogged and will no longer spray after about two uses.

It’s not that thing where you can run the little plastic nozzle thing under warm water to unclog it. This is different. There is no pressure, the button will not even press down. Or it might for one push then nothing again.

This has happened with about 4 cans now. I kept buying it hoping it was just a weird batch but after seeing all of these similar reviews I understand that I have to start the search for a new hair spray.

I understand that this is a very privileged problem to have but it still sucks to lose such a great product.

I’m glad I am not the only one with the same issue. The control force nozzle is constantly clogged unlike every other hair spray that I have ever bought. It is sticky on the hair and the “scent” stinks.

I’m not sure how this can be an AVEDA product. The science of Pure flower and plant essences???? Really? I don’t know of any flowers that smell like this. Would definitely not recommend this hairspray.

And it’s expensive too. ! What a giant waste of money.

The only reason this product is not getting 5 stars is because the packaging needs some work–the spray nozzle gets stuck A LOT and just won’t spray. I wipe mine down now, but it still happens way too often.

Aveda, please find a better way or tell me how to make this not happen. I love the hairspray though! I have fine hair and it helps my hair hold style. Don’t spray too close and don’t overdue it because it will get too heavy.

A lot goes a long way.

I use the Kendra 25 and the Kendra 6 texture spray. Felt like the hairspray was to drying out my hair but held the hold all day. I’ve been trying different alternatives. Ordered a sample size and wow I can spray a little as texture spray and then use it for hairspray.

My hair was not stiff and brushed out nicely. The next morning my hair wasn’t as dry as when I used the Kendra. It’s a little pricy but you get discounts when you order so that helped. Also using the volume tonic and thickening tonic.

Love those products too. I’m excited about having healthier hair and hopefully this will slow down my hair loss for my age. 59 years young.

This hairspray does exactly what it says it does. It is a very light hold and I was able to easily brush through it. No sticky feel but a little crunchy in a few places. It did have a strong alcohol scent but it didn’t bother me too much however fir someone who is sensitive to stronger scents it may be a bit to much.

I was pleasantly surprised that it did hold my hairstyle a little bit better and longer than some others that I have tried. Personally I prefer a stronger hold so I most likely would probably not purchase this product.

For what it does the cost it a little high as well. I like I could get similar results from a less expensive brand.

Sebastian Shaper is “dry, brushable styling hairspray. ” It can be used before or after blow drying, or with a heated styling tool. I found it to work very well. My hair is very straight, and usually goes where gravity pulls it.

Sebastian Shaper allowed me to defy gravity. A small spray and a comb-through did the trick, but another short spray guarantees it. Still, the hair is not stiff or unnatural. The scent is unobtrusive.

Overall, a very good product.

Curl Last Flexible Hold Hairspray has a very pleasant smell and a nice medium hold. My biggest problem with most hairspray is all that perfume; makes me gag! I’ve gone from natural curls to a straighter blow dry look and this hairspray is fine for either style.

I love your hairspray honestly. however as I see on the rest of the ratings the nozzle is just awful. I cannot get thru more than 1/4-1/2 a can before the nozzle is so clogged that nothing will come out.

I have tried everything. I take it off and soak it in boiling hot water to melt the spray. nothing works. When I put if back on it dribbles out. I cannot tell you how many cans i have had to throw in the garbage.

I am finally at the point where I give up. TOOOO expensive to keep throwing them in the garbage. Please advise what in the world to do! I think that a company like Sebastian should correct this problem and offer some sort of compensation to their customers who have had this experience! I have thrown out too many cans!!!.

I’ve been using this spray for quite sometime & I love it! It has enough hold & yet very easy to work with. I’ve had trouble with previous cans not spraying half way through & would take them apart & wash them.

Lately all I have to do is give my hair a few quick, short sprays & they’ve been working better. Before I’d hold down on the button & continuously spray. The short sprays seem to keep the can working better.

Hope that helps!.

I’m not sure about the countless other reviews, but I’m on my 6th can and I have never had a bad nozzle, nor have I ever had to remove and run under hot water. Now, I always shake my can first as I was instructed over 40 years ago by a hairdresser, so maybe that’s the trick.

As for Re-Shaper I go back and forth between this and Shaper Plus. I have thick, coarse, curly 3A hair and although we don’t have much humidity in Sacramento I have lots of hair and on windy days the Re-Shaper really helps.

I love Sebastian hairspray because it doesn’t interfere with my perfume. The only reason i didn’t give it 5 stars is because it is a bit more heavy than Shaper Plus. But when I go to the beach this spray is the bomb and is a 5/5.

Was pleasantly surprised by this product. Was in need of a hairspray that didn’t leave my hair feeling sticky, overly dry, or flat and clumpy like other super strong-hold ones tend to. Curled my hair today for a wedding, lasted ALL day in this Fl.

humidity!! Yet my hair still looked soft and touchable, despite being held in place. And for the price?? Not complaining. I was also able to brush it out at the end of the night no problem.

I’m not a fan of this brand. Every product I have tried has been a fail. Why did I buy this? I was out of my every day hairspray. I have texturizing hairspray, volumizing hairspray and super hold hairspray.

All different brands and price points. But for every day flexible hold or for flyaways on ponytail tail days, I use Suave Flexible Hold. I saw the Garnier at the pharmacy and I had a coupon so I grabbed it.

It has a lot of hold. But it is do drying. Which is the problem I have with this brand. I’ve tried this a few times with different hairstyles and different leave ins and I get the same effect. High hold for a couple hours and super dry hair.

It also leaves a lot of residue behind. Sorry, Garnier, we’re just not meant to be.

So my mother has been using Garnier Fructus product for a long time and she loves them. I tried the Garnier Fructis Style Full Control Anti-Humidity Non-Aerosol Hairspray and wow I am impressed. I am a male and it is hard to find products for my curly hair that don’t make it look dry and dead.

The hairspray did magic, my hair looked healthy and alive while holding my curls. I am going to start buying this product because I been using it every single day and it works and smells good. When I went to school I was receiving compliments in the hallways about how good my hair looked and it made me feel more confident since my curly hair has been my biggest insecurity.

I also wanted to test if it would flake like many other products I have used before so I went to bed and woke up the next morning with my hair still looking good without flakes and with a little bit of water it went back to looking like was before I went to bed.

I totally recommend it and I am definitely buying it from now on. Thank you Garnie!.

I’ve recent tried this hairspray and I had my doubts as I’m not usually a huge fan of this brand’s styling products, but I was very impressed with the results! I have very thick, wavy, frizzy prone hair and hairspray is NECESSITY for me even if I’m just rocking a ponytail because I have more fly-away than a hive of swarming bees and if my hairspray doesn’t do it’s job I look like Pennywise.

With this hairspray, I brushed my hair, sprayed the sides where I’m prone to fly-aways, and then brushed my hair into a ponytail. I’m excited to report that from 5am-7pm my hair was fly-away free without feeling like I had a ballistic helmet on my head.

My hair was still pretty soft. Now, the ultimate test was curls. could this stuff hold my curls in place? Unless I use about half a can, nothing holds my curls in place. My usual curling routine is to spray a section of hair, roll it into a hot roller, then spray again, I leave the hot rollers in my hair for at least an hour and spray again before taking them out.

And just for good measure, I spritz again after I’ve taken them all out. Do you know what that gives me? Gorgeous curls that a tsunami couldn’t move. They’re pretty, but no one really wants hair that doesn’t move.

Plus- I know you can all imagine how long it takes me to brush it out and wash it out. Anyways, I decided I’d really test the hold ability of this stuff. So, all I did was roll my hair up in hot rollers (no pre-roll spritz), sprayed when they were set in the rollers and then once again when I took them out.

To my extreme surprise and delight, my curls could move AND they held ALL day. In short, this is my new go-to hairspray. If you have thick hair, this is definitely a product you want to buy.

This is the best spray so far for my liking. It’s not so strong that I have stuff hair. My hair stays bouncy and natural without that crispy look that happens with other products. It doesn’t have a strong smell and it last a long time since not much is needed for my curly hair.

I also use it to tame my frizzies that get out of control around the frame of my face. I’m thinking of purchasing a smaller bottle to take with me on the go. My girls love to spray a little on after they curl their hair and it’s the o my thing that keeps their curls from falling out without making them look stiff.

I usually purchase High end hair sprays however after watching several online videos I decided to give this one a try because it had good reviews. Unfortunately this done absolutely nothing for my hair.

A little background on my hair I have straight, thin hair. When using this I noticed my scalp itched pretty bad. There was no holding power either.

Love this hairspray, except for the spray nozzle, as it seems to stop working midway down. I tried everything to correct this problem. like wiping the nozzle with a wet cloth, wet tissue, soaking in hot water & soaking in vinegar, but nothing worked.

Finally I tried one last thing before I would give up & never buy again. I wiped the nozzle with a dry tissue after I finished all the spraying on my hair. I have now finished three complete cans with no problems with the nozzle.

I must add that I purchased some of the cans from Ulta & some from the grocery store, so I really do not know if that was the problem or was it always the nozzle wherever they were purchased. The company really needs to address this nozzle problem, because they have a great product, which I have used for many years & hope to continue.

I use this hairspray for styling my hair. Helps to get some lift by under spraying my hair after blow drying and then finger comb it in place. It holds the lift without being stiff, it can get wind blown and finger combing a bit gets it looking good again.

Very nice smell, not overwhelming.

I use this hairspray almost everyday. It helps control the frizz (I live in a very humid climate), but doesn’t weigh down my very thin hair. Nor, does it result in a hair helmut. I use this instead of the extra-firm formula in the same line, because I like my hair to move.

And, even though it is named, “strong hold”, it certainly isn’t stiff. I can still run my hands through it, immediately. I can also blow dry it again, later in the day, with no ill-effects. It seems to add a little texture, which again, is very helpful with thinning, color treated hair, that has trouble holding any kind of body during a long day.

Even though I use the large size at home, I really like this smaller size and use it for travel. It is physically a good 50% larger than most travel sizes, so it can last a while. through several short trips.

Worth every cent!!.

This Rusk Hair Spray has the worst spray bottle on the market, and this company does not do anything about it. I really like the spray. I like the fragance, the way it keeps my hair in place, and it does not leave a residue on my hair as other extra hold sprays tend to do.

I will not be buying this product any more,because I seem to have to take almost every bottle back to where I bought It because the bottle will not continue to spray correctly and the spray will not come out.

Some shops will no longer exchange the bottles that do not work for new ones. It is too bad that this company doesn’t correst this situation with a new spray bottle.

Really love this product. I’m new to using it. It comes out in a lovely fine mist that is great for fine hair. Have been using the Kenra volume spray number 25 and absolutely hated how the nozzle of the sprayer became so caked with gunk and it stopped working.

This is lighter hold than Kenra but it does just as good of a job and keeping my hairstyle in place all day. Also quite a bit cheaper than the Kenra hairspray. Only issue is it smells not bad , but not great either.

Absolutely love everything about this spray!!!!! Always get it at a good and reasonable price. This is a must have. Wouldn’t change a thing about this product. Amazing results, no white residue. I recommend this product to everyone.

One of my favorites by far.

I have never tried this hairspray but a co worker of mine, whose hair always looks phenomenal even at the end of the day, told me this is what she uses. I have used this for 2 days and I’ve gotten compliments on my hair both days.

For years I have been using the very expensive Kenra hairspray and also the generic version of that from Sally’s. I cannot believe how great my hair looks with the bed head hairspray. A little goes a loooooong way, but I spray my hair in the morning and I’m done for the day.

I have a short layered Bob haircut and this does not look or feel sticky but it just looks phenomenal.

A friend with thin straight hair let me use this when I was staying with her. I have thick curly hair so wasn’t sure it would work. That was five years ago and I have been using it daily since then. I have tried others but they are not strong enough for my heavy shoulder length hair.

I put a heavy coat on after washing once a week to set the diffused shape. Then use it lightly every day after that to refresh the shape. I watch for sales and stock up!.

Why can’t someone come out with an all day extreme hold hairspray with out perfume? This one has a very weak hold and a horrible strong perfume fragrance. The awful fragrance lasts until you wash your hair the next morning, it just won’t go away! Some people want rock solid hairspray so you can fix your hair and it looks great all day.

The kind of hairspray that makes your hair hard and stiff so it stays in place.

When I used this product I actually thought it was heat protectant. Don’t judge me lol I was in cosmetology school not reading. Surely I realized it was not heat protectant when I used the flat iron right after spraying this and the hair was hard lol.

So that means the hair spray did it’s job!.

I absolutely love the smell of this. It is worth the price. My only issue is the holding factor residue. I felt like it left a little residue on my hair if I brushed my hair after I sprayed it. Compared to others in that category, I would buy this above most others.

I have been using this hairspray for years and love almost everything about it. My one complaint is that the nozzle get a clog that can’t be flushed out (sometimes before it is even halfway gone). Excellent hold, smells awesome, and no issues with build-up.

If it weren’t for the clogging issue it would be perfect!.

OSIS+Trill Fibre Gum is great for adding texture and definition to your hair. Just a little of this goes a long away. The texture of the gum is quite sticky – just apply to your fingertips and rub together to spread the product.

After this use your fingertips to define layers, add a little texture and definition. This gum can easily be reworked hours later too! Great for short hair styling!.

Excellent product I have been looking for quite sometime for a product that suits my hair and this is perfect. It doesn’t leave your greasy just styles the layers and leaves a natural shine and as I have short hair which is thick as well it keeps the style in all day.

I liked it so much I have already ordered three more in case they discontinue this product. I have tried so many different gels and waxes but this is the best.

Really like this product, better than hairspray! I have straight, thin hair, I use this product after blow drying my hair. The product keeps my hair styled until I want to re- brush my hair. No product residue when you restyle your hair or brushing you hair in general.

My new favorite! I have very straight hair that doesn’t hold a curl well. I’ve tried other products but they just leave my hair feeling like I’ve used too much extra hold hair spray, crunchy and stuck together.

This goes on super fine and makes my hair feel normal. It holds the curl really well. It says you can use before you curl and again after as a hair spray. I don’t find that I need to use it again afterwards unless I’m trying to get a firm curl.

This is my favoriteeee heat styling product!!! It’s so lightweight (as if it was a normal hairspray), it has a very pretty, peachy scent to it that’s not overwhelming, it’s not sticky at all, and it’s effective against heat styling damage! The way the product dispenses is so convenient as well.

This product is color safe, vegan, gluten free, paraben free, safe for all hair types, and I like that about this product too. Love Paul Mitchell.

I am VERY picky about hair spray, and I don’t like to use heat on my hair unless absolutely necessary as I am in the process of trying to get my hair to a healthier state. I am a professional hair artist though and I use heat all day long on my clients.

I have found that currently my most favorite hair spray to use with heated styles would be Paul Mitchell’s Hot Off The Press Thermal Protection HairSpray. Not only is it a heat protectant but it is a styling product as well, it gives a great flexible hold.

I am very favorable of products that are versatile and can be used for more than one objective, the less product applied to the hair the better and more beautiful it will look. This particular thermal protection hairspray helps to fight frizz (which is great because then I can avoid needing to use a silk product that often times leaves hair greasy so its really great for fine or thin hair).

It provides a strong hold while still being flexible, it does not make you look like you have helmet head. The Rice Hull Extract provides a strong barrier between the hair and the heat being used against the hair while the wheat proteins give the hair a little extra strength.

It doesn’t weigh your hair down, it successfully provides all day volume, and enhances shine. Also one of the biggest selling factors for me is that it fights against humidity! Living in florida a product that fights against the effects of humidity is a MUST! Not to mention it is paraben, gluten and cruelty free!!! I give this FIVE STARS!.

Love this hair spray. It’s the perfect hold, leaves no residue and smells nice. The reason for only 3 stars is I was very disappointed in how the hairsprays were poorly packaged and arrived all dinged and damaged.

I’m truly surprised that not one burst with all the dents in them. Someone was obviously having a bad day when my order came through. Additionally, I was supposed to receive samples which I did not get.

:(.

couture is my absolute holy grail of hairsprays. i work in a salon and it’s been on backorder for almost 2 months so hopefully i don’t run out before it comes back in stock. i wear extensions but my natural hair alone doesn’t hold curl well, and this hairspray changes that.

it does not make your hair feel crunchy whatsoever no matter how much you spray and it doesn’t have the gross normal hairspray smell. please get this stuff. it’s hold is incredible and i can’t feel it in my hair whatsoever.

I do not use hair spray very often. But I made sure to have something that was of very good quality neaby. I am very pleased with L’Oreal products in general as they keep their technology up to date about to gives us results without causing harm to hair.

This spray works beautifu. No crunch feeling. You can comb and style. The hai looks well put together. This is a great finishing touch.
