With 24-hour control that keeps hair in place and can withstand humidity, this spray will keep your hair looking sleek and shiny all day. With the Shaper Plus feature, it has a strong hold and provides excellent shape, so you can style it however you please and know it’ll stay put. And it doesn’t get that sticky, coarse feeling.

Great for all hair types, whether straight, wavy, or curly, this spray conditions hair to add moisture and shine and it provides a long-lasting lift to keep hair voluminous for hours.
