If when you think of hairspray you still picture the stiff, sticky helmet-like look and feel of the past, we’ve got a considerable variety of spritzes and sprays to fill you in on. Now don’t get us wrong—an extra-firm hairspray has its time and place, but for many of us, a light hold with a bit of shine is often all we’re looking for. Whether you prefer a heavy-duty hairspray with a hold that won’t quit or a flexible frizz-fighting finisher, read on for the perfect recommendation for your hair type.
For a frizz-fighting formula with little hold:
Bumble And Bumble's Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil Finishing Spray works best on fine to medium hair, straight or curly. It reduces frizz and adds nourishment to dry, color-treated hair. After shaking well, hold your hairspray 8-10 inches from dry hair and spray evenly from mid-shafts to ends. Distribute evenly with a comb or fingers. PRO TIP: For hair that’s on the finer side, spray it in your hands before applying.

We recommend Pureology Style + Protect Texture Finishing Spray for fine hair or for those weary of a heavy look or feel. Shake well before use, then spray a fine mist 4-6 inches from the hair to add touchable texture to your finished style. Layer on as desired.
For luminous locks with a medium hold:
Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray - Medium is ideal for blowouts and updos alike and works well with all hair types. Spray onto your style as needed, holding the can about 10 inches away from your head. PRO TIP: For extra volume, spray onto roots before styling.
For a seriously strong hold (sans the heavy-duty hairspray smell):
