I like the John Freida "Frizz Ease" - if I end up like Little Orphan Annie after I take out my pins, this spray really calms down my 'do!

I use JOICO K-PAK Protective Hairspray

Designed for: medium hold (although I think it's more of a strong hold)

Benefits:
Medium-hold hairspray provides ultimate protection while delivering flexible styling, healthy body, volume and control that lasts all day.

Leaves hair feeling soft, natural, touchable and brushable.

I have never heard of that! Where can you get it? I'm not too into hairspray, but when I do use it I like Aussie sprunch? I think? It's not scrunch... but it smells like candy and really holds well.

My favorite ever is from Bumble and Bumble. Smells nice and holds well, but it's so wretchedly expensive, like all their products.

Big Sexy Hair - hairspray. I bought it because it made me laugh and I am a sucker for packaging. To my delight I think it's pretty fantastic for hold without being too crunchy.

I think Elnett is nice because it's such a good working spray, it doesn't flake and you can brush it out. The hold is not stiff but therefore not that strong either.

Right now, I really love Tresemme Freeze Hold, the one in the white bottle. It is very, very strong hold, to the point it gets stiff, but really nice because you can still brush it out. It does flake if you build it up, though, so I use it sparingly...

Other than that, I like Ice Shine, as mentioned. It actually does give shine, which is good since hairsprays sometimes leave my hair very matte. Also strong hold, but unfortunately this one flakes badly, so it's more of a spray you use if you really need your hair to look fab for one evening/day, and you can just wash it out afterwords. Not much of a working spray.

So, I must say, Elnett is great for overall everyday use... But I will keep experimenting. :)

I only use hairspray on my bangs to prevent fly-aways. I've used Pantene for years, and usually go with something that will hold in windy weather. Can't remember which one that is. It smells good, though.

I love the plain old tresemme that I bought when my good stuff ran out and I haven't switched back.

I like the aussie frizz control styling cream for my 'setting' lotion, I like the sprunch spray and their hairspray for flexible hold that really is soft and I like their instant freeze for finishing.

Ethnic hair spray!

i like a lot of hold, but have super dry hair, so I have started using hairspray made for black people's hair, ad I love it! My current fave is called IsoPlus 24 Hour Hold, and it is a strong hold with no crunch whatsoever. Makes my hair silky!

OOh! I am going to have to give that a try!! Ethnic hair products work so well with my hair, I don't know why I haven't thought of using that as well.. lol Thanks for the tip!

Aquanet. Truly the Queen of hairsprays. I used it when my hair was short. I only use it now when I've set my hair for a night out. I had no problems but you dry hair girls might not like it.
