I really like the smell of this! Sorry, I must like cheap perfume! So I think I am in a minority. Maybe it is because it reminds me of my mum, so the smell triggers happy memories for me. However,...

This is one of those things that works well, but I really feel it damages and dries out my hair. Sebastian Shaper is my preference but I'm on the lookout for something still less damaging.

This hairspray does have a very pungent smell. I personally describe it as old folk's home and cheap air freshener, but some others describe it as cheap perfume, garbage, et cetera. Thankfully,...

La la love this hairspray. I use it regularly before/after curling my hair with a conical wand. It gives me shiny, bouncy, loose curls that I can run my fingers through without the slightest bit of...

For it's price, it's an excellent product. I must be weird, I don't mind the smell. I usually use Bumble & Bumble Spray De Mode, but Elnett is half the price so sometimes it suits the need.

I feel like there's something wrong with me for not loving this hairspray......I don't get anything out of it, other than it's drying and doesn't really provide any hold--- and I'm not a helmet...

I had been in the market for a drugstore hairspray under 15 and ran into this one. I only use hairspray when I curl or braid my hair so I don't use it daily. So when I first sprayed this on, I...

I would love to love this hairspray, but I just can't! Before buying, I checked plenty of reviews and compared it against tons of other hairsprays. I noticed warnings about...

Loved the hold, lack of "crunchiness", and how I could brush it out with no white flakes. Couldn't get past the very strong scent. It smells like the 1980's or an older lady's perfume. The smell...

I use this occasionally for updos. The odor is stronger than the hold but it doesn't leave my hair crunchy. A bit overpriced for the performance.

First, I was looking for a good old fashioned aerosol hair spray now that CFCs are a thing of the past. I know, old news, but I'm a child of the 80's and 90's so in my head aerosol==bad. I did a...

I have been using this for several years. The can lasts a long time. The spray nozzle does not seem to clog. I find the smell to be pleasant. However, since I have been bleaching my hair for almost...

Smells like a chemical perfume nightmare. Doesn't hold very long, you're very fortunate to get 20 minutes on anything but a dry, windless, low humidity, sunny day. Even the "colour friendly"...

Even if this hairspray was amazing, there is NO WAY I could ever get past the smell. It smells STRONGLY of "old lady" perfume. Like a bad 80's women's "cologne." I am at a huge loss as to its...

In one word? Overhyped. I found this not only smelled weird (very old fashioned like this old Avon perfume my grandmother sometimes wore) but didn't hold my hair at all. It was a very light hold at...

I think I'm allergic to this. I've used it off and on for a couple years but it makes my head itch. plus it smells bad. I know there's an unsceneted one but I won't risk it. I'm not using this...

Very average in performance - didn't hold the style in my hair and the scent is slightly odd - kind of like my mother's hairspray from the 70s. Like many drugstore hairsprays for 5 times the cost.

Seems to provide a decent hold. Yet there are a few important drawbacks. The smell is awful: very very strong, making me choke almost. It also makes the hair look unnatural, stiff.

I don't get what the big fuss about this hairspray is about! It doesn't hold my wave/curls and it doesn't make my hair softer nor shinier. My hair kinda just goes into this semi-hard limbo. I...
