don't listen to negative reviews
-12.28.12
Quick Take: easy to use, lightweight, non-sticky
If anyone is saying there's too much hold, it's because they're using too much. I spray the brush then brush my hair after I straighten it. I usually only use about 3 sprays. It's very light weight and not too greasy.

dried out my hair
-12.10.12
Quick Take: lightweight, non-sticky, dried out hair, stiff
I have oily scalp with a bit to the dry side hair, particularly at the end. This product makes my hair dry even more; plus I don't like the hold; it's too much for me. BUT love the smell, and the product really protects hair from heat styling.

Light, Fragrant Hairspray
-07.08.12
I definitely recommend this hairspray! First of all, I love the scent. It is much lighter than other hairsprays I have used and, while it provides good hold, it doesn't leave my hair looking and feeling like cement. The only drawback is that is costs about the same as better sprays, but you don't get as much. I will still buy it again though.

Similar to Spritz-good for holding
-06.15.12
I did not like the product that much because it reminded me of Spritz. It was also making my hair hard as I was trying to curl it. This product is great as a holding spray but it was not good for me when curling my hair because it caused my hair to be hard and crunchy as I was curling it..

Must have!
-06.12.12
Quick Take: easy to use, lightweight, non-sticky
This spray is one of THE best products of hers I have purchased. I have thin hair and this spray did not weigh it down at all. I used it on completed hairstyles and it gave an awesome shine to the styles. I think I have had the same bottle for at least 6 months. I am out and can't wait to get more!

No, Thank you.
-05.27.12
I bought this a while ago and still haven't gotten the hang of not making my hair a sticky, clumpy mess that is impossible to get a hairbrush through.
Many reviews said that you can't use a lot of this product and that is why everyone is saying your hair will get sticky and crunchy, but I find the spray bottle makes it near impossible to achieve applying less product as it is more of a gloopy squirt then a fine mist.
I stopped using this.

I have curly hair, use sulfate free shampoos, as wells as silicone free conditioners...i needed something that would protect my hair against heat styling while helping keep my hair in place and this product does the job! It not only protects against heat styling tools but it keeps those curls in place and fights frizness.Works on both wet and dry hair. And although it leaves my hair a tad bit greasier from the roots the next day, i still think its a great purchase , i will merely just avoid spraying on my roots.

Stiff hair
-02.15.12
The first time I used it my hair felt heat. But the next few times it left my hair so stiff I couldn't get a brush through it without a fight for the life of me. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone despite the raves about it.

Quick Take: lightweight, easy to use
I am in love with this product. Not only does it protect my hair from everyday straightening, but it has great hold and smells divine. You only need the tiniest amount, otherwise your hair will be sticky and straw like - exactly what other reviewers have complained of, but if you use a little it does the job perfectly.

Straw Hair

Quick Take: turns hair to straw
Carol's Daughter heat styling hairspray turned my hair into straw and it still did not hold the curl. My hair felt terrible and was still straight.

Not the best...
-12.05.11
Quick Take: sticky
I love Carol's Daughter products. I've been using the Macadamia serum and LOVED it. I saw this spray and decided to give it a try. It is NOTHING like the serum. It did NOT make my hair soft and shiny. It actually made my hair appear dull and had a "crispy" feel to it to my hair. It also made my hair feel stick after I sprayed it on. Waste of my money.

I love this stuff!!
-11.29.11
Quick Take: lightweight, easy to use
I got this as a sample and I'm now online to buy it. You only need a small amount in wet hair and it made my hair unbelievably soft and shiny. My daughter has very course, dry, curly and frizzy hair and it made it beautiful again!! I wish there was a Sephora closer so I could just go buy it instead of waiting for it to ship.

Ugh.
-11.08.11
Quick Take: easy to use, sticky
Made my hair sticky and hard. It felt like plaster. The only thing this stuff DID right was protect my hair from my flat iron. Other than that, it was below my expectations.
