I regret buying this hairspray and I can't return the stupid thing because it was on clearance. My salon was having sale and I'm always down for a new hairspray. This was marked down to $10. It...

Not impressed with this one. I really like Matrix Biolage Freeze Fix so was hoping that this Amplify formula would help hold volume in my hair as it is a texturizing spray. It gives me volume for...

I literally went up and down all the shelves at the local beauty supply, looking for an aerosol hairspray that would provide hold without stiffness, stickiness or weight. I also wanted something...

One of my favorite hairsprays of all time. It holds fairly decent-not stiff or sticky, and it brushes out great, too. I have extremely straight hair, and this holds curl pretty well. I think it...

This is on the pricey side for me!! I only use this for my roots as I'm always looking for some lift at the top and this works pretty nice. I flip sections of my hair over and just spray the roots,...

Didn't hold well at all. I was looking for a light hold just to give my hair some volume. This was not good at all. I returned it. Got the VaVoom instead and it is much better.

Aveda Pure Abundance hair spray is the best volumizing spray on the market because it volumizes and HOLDS that volume through the day. Matrix Amplify is a decent second; it amplifies beautifully...

This is my old-standby hairspray. The can clogs on occasion, and the finish at the end of a can may be a bit sticky, but this generally provides a hold to fine hair through humidity and/or wind,...

This is my HG hair spray. Every time I consider a new product, I ask myself, "why fix what isn't broken"? I have fine,wispy, thick hair that gets unruly in a pony tail if not shellacked in place....

I have never had any luck with hairspray and this is the best stuff I have ever used! It's not at all sticky or crunchy and smells great (none of that gross bread-like smell). It's a very fine mist...

This is truly the best hairspray I've ever used. I went in search of a hairspray to replace my Physique Volumizing Non-Aerosol Hairspray and read the reviews of this one on MUA. I held out at...

Not too sure about this hairspray. I applied according to the directions (raking fingers through), and that worked okay. Hold was fine for me. It just seemed to give my hair a very noticeable,...

I tried this based on the MUA reviews here. It does feel light and airy going on, but for me that seems to mean that it just doesn't hold well (see review directly below mine). Oh well, the search...

After reading the reviews on MUA I thought this product would save my fine and straight hair. But I found that this spray didn't last very long (1-2 hrs) nor did it hold any volume. If I don't...
