While hair spray is perhaps best known for keeping hairstyles firmly in place, the truth is that there are about as many uses for hair spray as there are hair types.
Depending on the type of spray you use, hair sprays and mists can:
- Texturise hair
- Thicken hair
- Hold hairstyles
- Add waves
- Protect hair from heat
- Fend off humidity
- Add shine to hair
Hair spray sometimes gets a bad rep for drying out hair,
however, it’s important to note that no hair styling spray alone will damage your hair. To ensure that your hair sprays and mists are actually helping your hair, make sure you choose products with high-quality ingredients. All of our products have been carefully selected and tested to ensure that they not only do their job but that they also benefit your hair in the long run.
Most often, hair spray and finishing mist refer to two different products with distinct uses. Typically, hair spray is used to coat strands to lock in a hairstyle. Hair mist, on the other hand, is an added layer on the hair, which adds shine and prevents frizz without coating hair strands.
This isn’t a hard-and-fast definition, however, as
different brands refer to different products in different ways. Where one brand might have a ‘shine spray’ another might have a ‘shine mist’. Even though they
might have different names, these products cans sometimes be used to achieve similar results.
As with every hair product, the best spray for your hair is entirely dependent on your hair type and hair goals.When choosing a hair spray, it’s important to consider your hair’s natural state (before styling), as well as your desired outcome. For example, someone with dry hair might select a hair spray with hydrating properties, whereas someone with frizzy hair might choose one that guards against humidity.
