How does hairspray work?
Hairspray consists of a film-forming agent, which is kept liquid in the spray bottle by solvents, as well as other components that have caring or protective properties for the hair. For application, this liquid is pressed through a very thin nozzle by means of propellant gas or a mechanical pump. A fine mist is formed, which evenly covers the hair and dries within a very short time. The thin film gives the hair shine, fixes the hairstyle and can protect the hair from influences such as UV light . Hairs is usually always used at the end of styling. It can be easily combed out again if necessary and is washed out with the next hair wash. Why and when should you use hairspray?
Use hairs whenever you want to add hold or volume to your hairstyle. For example, you can use it for the following occasions:
- Fixing hair – such as for bangs, cheeky twirls, curls or waves
