Have you ever had those days where you spend an hour on heat styling your hair, only for it to come undone within a couple of hours? We have the perfect solution that doesn’t require lacquering your hair in a thick coat of hairspray.

Here are the industry secrets for bouncy, flowy, and long-lasting heated styles.


ghd Curly Ever After Curl Hold Spray 


Despite its name, you can use the ghd Curly Ever After Curl Hold Spray for any heated style. Formulated by ghd stylists and engineering heat experts, this product maximises the longevity of your chosen styles and works as a heat protectant, too. You might as well switch out your regular heat protectant for the Curly Ever After to reach the fullest potential of your hair goals. 

Furthermore, according to consumer testing, 8/10 people felt a difference in the hold of their curls, while 8/10 women also noticed a shinier, healthier result when using the Curly Ever After. 

If you have thin hair that cannot seem to grip a curl or thick and stubborn hair that doesn’t agree with your heated tools, you have to try the Curly Ever After. To use, spray onto the lengths of your hair, brush it through and wait until your hair is dry before heat styling. 

For wet to dry stylers who love a good blow out, the Curly Ever After is a godsend for long lasting bounce!


Hair by Sam McKnight Modern Hairspray Multi-Tasking Styling Mist 


We all love a beachy, effortless and wavy moment. One problem. The nature of this hairstyle requires less heat to achieve, and so it tends to fall flat after a few hours. If you can relate, you need to get your hands on the Modern Hairspray Multi-Tasking Styling Mist from Sam McKnight. 

This product is best for beachy or wavy styles where volume, texture and longevity come first. The Modern Hairspray will give your hair that extra tousle for flirty hair flips and that effortless vibe. It can also double as insurance for meticulously styled updos and perfect for short hair styles. 
Spotted on the set of hundreds of runway fashion shows, the Modern Hairspray Multi-Tasking Styling Mist has become an industry favourite, and for good reason. This product is best used before you begin to heat style, not afterwards. Afterall, this is a modern hair spray. Because this is a multi-tasking mist, this product will give your hair grip and shine for the ultimate lasting waves without the crunch factor.


Living Proof Full Thickening Mousse 


The Living Proof Full Thickening Mousse is for people who prefer to wet-style their hair. Formulated with Living Proofs’ patented ingredient, the Thickening Molecule, it works by attaching thickness and volume to each strand – much like mascara. It is an excellent option for those who need to blow dry their hair before curling. 

You know how second-day hair always seems to curl a little better? Providing an extra layer of hold on super clean hair gives you long-lasting curls that won’t slip away throughout the day. Additionally, you won’t have to worry about the hair becoming stiff due to the touchable and flexible hold you can easily brush out when the day is over!


You don’t need hairspray for long-lasting styles! Ditch the stiff crunch for soft and touchable hair with these products.
