Disappointed
I don't know if it's because my hair is on the thicker side but this is legit the worst hair spray I've ever tried. It does not hold whatsoever -- my hair will fall after like half an hour. The smell is also horrendous, I'm sorry, I have to hold my breath until the scent is gone. Pretty disappointed as I do love kristen ess products usually.

Broken nozzle
The hair spray arrived with a broken nozzle. With the first spray it came pouring down the side of the bottle.

Needs better packaging
The hairspray itself is nice, if you can get it out of the can. The spray nozzle is ridiculously tough to press down. Thinking of returning it. Putting on hairspray shouldn't be this hard.

smells so good wasps will swarm you!
i love this hairspray. i’ve been using it for years now. i don’t curl my hair often so i don’t use hairspray much. i did today and was absolutely swarmed by wasps while getting my kids out of the car. twice. i’m almost certain they’re attracted to the scent of the hairspray because this has literally never happened to me before and i had just done my hair! i still love it though. i will just park in the garage when i’m using it 🤣

texture spray love
This left a shine to the hair, creating a perfect text to hold the curls in place. The packaging is nice and the scent is average, smells like hairspray!

Hold great and smells great
My go to hair spray the last few months. Its hold is perfect and leaves my flyaways set in the right spot. The smell is nice and leaves hair feeling smooth still

It’s a good one!
This hairspray is nice and finely sprayed but for my thick and curly, horse hair it didn’t work as well. But for my mom it held up super nice. She has thinner and finer hair! It did leave both of us with a lot of shine though!

Great hairspray!
This hairspray smells so good and holds my hair into place without feeling sticky or hard. I used this on my curls and it helped them shine and last all night!

Lightweight but long lasting
I don't typically use hairspray but this one right here is AMAZING. it's a lightweight combable hold but it holds your style all day long. It's affordable at most drug stores. It leaves a slight shine to your hair and smells good. The nozzle could definitely use an upgrade though because it gets stuck.

Smelled Horrible
It may hold well but the smell was the worse. Never buying this again. Had to throw it out. Wish I realized this earlier and return it

Stinky but perfect hold for me
I love the level of hold for my fine hair and how soft my hair still is! It’s not crunchy or sticky. I really don’t like the smell but put up with it because the end product of my hairstyle is so good!

Light, smells nice, not much hold
It’s not terrible by any means, but it really doesn’t have hold at all. The smell is lovely and it doesn’t get crunchy or greasy or too heavy. If you’re looking for anything more than an EXTREMELY light shine/defrizz, I’d go elsewhere for styling.

Poor nozzle
Product is good. Nozzle is not. I had to return one for not working immediately. My latest one doesn’t work with 1/2 the bottle left. Will not buy again

Faulty nozzle
Forget it, the nozzle is an issue. It breaks off because it is attached by a flimsy piece of plastic in one place-leaving you unable to use the product! You can read the other reviews that agree with this. Get this fixed Kristen Ess!

Decent
I tried this with high hopes, but it didn’t do the trick. Smells good, is light weight, but essentially has no hold. If you want your hair to fall a lot after spraying, then you’ll like this but not for me. Loved the bottle though!

Nozzle is consistently bad
So I thought I hated it, until I used another one instead for a long time, then went back to this one and realized it was so much better. It keeps my annoying flyaways down but it does have a bad smell and can feel crunchy to the touch unless you comb it out. I can deal with the smell because it goes away fast. But the worst part is the NOZZLE that always clogs and leaks. If they fix this, it would be 4 stars. Bottle lasts a long time too.

Fix the nozzle!!
I really love this product, but the nozzle drives me crazy! It feels like half the time I purchase I have to go back and exchange for a new one, because the nozzle either leaks or clogs and doesn’t spray properly. It’s too expensive for this to happen so often!

Her Favorite!
My sister in law got me on this hairspray. She said it was her favorite! I already use the dry shampoo so she gave me her brand new bottle on hairspray to try! It smells great and leaves my hair feeling “natural”! Definitely a new go to!
