I Create Finish Non-Aerosol Hairspray - Lavender

Perfectly suits fine wavy hair without weighing it down

fine-hair reviewer

Great hold with no stickiness or crunchiness, and a little product goes a long way

satisfied reviewer

Felt the hold was too light and didn't keep curls held for long

curly-hair reviewer wanting stronger hold

Disliked an unpleasant chemical smell and questioned the price-to-size ratio

dissatisfied reviewer

Doesn't leave hair sticky and fingers can still run through it, though scent was underwhelming

reviewer weighing texture against scent

Salty Waves Texture Beachy Spray

Adds texture to curls and holds the style in place while keeping curls feeling soft, not crunchy

5-star Ulta reviewer with curly hair

Sweet scent fans like it and it does not dry out their hair with regular use

5-star Ulta reviewer

Scent reads as a natural, not artificial, banana/coconut smell and gives hair a beachy, tousled volume

5-star Ulta reviewer

Banana scent read as artificial and off-putting enough that the reviewer didn't keep the product

2-star Ulta reviewer

Left hair feeling weighed down and stringy for this reviewer's hair type

1-star Ulta reviewer

How this page was made

  • This page is assembled from the same researched records the individual product pages render: identity, each ingredient list as printed, each brand's own claims, dated price observations, and review themes written in our researchers' own words. Nothing on it is written per comparison.
  • We do not rank these against each other. Which of them suits you depends on your hair, and that is what the consultation works out.
  • The formula similarity percentage is a stored, precomputed number: position-weighted overlap of the two ingredient lists blended with agreement on the attributes we derive. It measures how alike two formulas are, not how well either works.
  • The value band is a fixed label over two stored numbers: this product’s cost per ounce as a percentile of every product of this type we have priced, each at the size it is most often sold in, and how many products we score as doing the same job cost at least a quarter less per ounce.
  • The "Is this right for you?" panel reads only your own consultation answers, and it applies exactly the filters our recommendation engine applies. It is computed when you load the page and is never stored on it.
  • 4 sources were consulted across the products on this page.
  • Ingredient order tells you relative amount only above roughly 1%. Prices are observations on the dates shown and change without notice. We do not sell these products and take no placement fees.
  • This is cosmetic information, not medical advice, and nothing here diagnoses or treats a health condition.
