Having a hand in seemingly everything hair-related, American brand TRESemmé offers a range of shampoos, conditioners, mousses, hair treatments and hairsprays to help keep your mane cared for. Its hairspray range includes Extra Hold, Freeze Hold and Extra Hold Lacquer, all available in a 360g container, or 75g container for the Extra Hold and Freeze Hold. The Extra Hold hairspray aims to achieve maximum hold with extra flyaway control without any stiffness, while the Freeze Hold looks to secure your look with humidity-resistance.
There are various types of hairsprays and ‘strengths’ to choose from, each designed to do something different. These include:
Typically, a product with a flexible hold is ideal because it gives you a little more wiggle room and still allows you to shape your hair how you want it with tools like a comb or brush. Meanwhile, hairspray with a strong hold tends to help your hair stay in place for longer, but that makes it less forgiving if you make a mistake.
