Top 10 Flexible Hairsprays

Get a Hold You Can Run Your Fingers Through With A Top-Rated Flexible Hairspray

Get a Hold You Can Run Your Fingers Through With A Top-Rated Flexible Hairspray

The world of hairspray can be a tough one to navigate. With the wrong product, one spray can overturn all of the hard work put into a perfect blowout. But with wind, heat, and humidity (the ultimate dirty word), the solution cannot be forgoing a spray altogether. With that knowledge, the beauty brands we love got smart and created hairsprays that hold without leaving a sticky residue or turning touchable locks into stiff strands. Now with a wide range of light to medium flexible hold options lining the virtual Amazon aisles, we thought we’d narrow it down to the Top 10 flexible hold hairsprays. No matter your hair type, the sprays that follow promise movement, body, and serious shine. Not to mention, many of the picks on this list are packed with ingredients that strengthen and restore hair all while keeping your freshly curled curls intact. From a finishing spray to sprays that can be brushed through or applied to damp hair, the reviews are in. One spray might be enough to keep flyaways down, but with these flexible hairsprays you can keep on spraying to build volume without building build up. Opening image: @nexxusnysalon
