This hairspray certainly has good and bad qualities. I'm mostly underwhelmed by it though, and wouldn't purchase it again, so I'll just list a few of both pros and cons.
PROS:
-It doesn't make hair crunchy or stiff
-It smells nice (to me)
-It has a soft hold and brushes out easily
CONS
-It's not a strong enough hold for my fine hair
-It stinks (to my boyfriend)
That's about it.

I hate hair spray because it feels like shellac, all sticky and crusty. But I wanted something to hold my hair into place. And this worked, even on a humid, rainy day it kept my hair in place while feeling soft. It's a little on the costly side, but completely worth it! Seriously!
I love this. This was the first formula I've purchased from the Elnett range, and I'm so pleased with it. I've generally avoided hairspray as I always associated it with sticky and crunchy hair - yuck! However, the Elnett spray very volume formula does not leave my hair sticky or crunchy; rather it holds my hair in place, and actually makes my hair look quite shiny! This spray, combined with Batiste dry shampoo, makes my fine hair look more polished and volumised. It smells nice too and I don't need to wash my hair the next day after use. And I think the vintage gold can looks very nice. Will definitely repurchase.
I like this hairspray granted that it doesn't have the best smell in the world. Its not sticky, it holds, and you can comb through your hair with it on. Its awesome. I purchased the small one and it was about seven dollars. The one thing that happens its that the sprayer gets clogged from time to time.

WOW!! WOW! this definately tamed my hair and I live in humid conditions! the hold lasted all day! I have thick hair and not John Frieda, Paul Mitchell, Tressame, Suave, Bed Head, Aussie, Redken, Garnier, Herbal Hessence, or Pantene could give me hold with non-sticky texture like Elnett!!
this is a definate favorite for me! love it! love it! I hope it never gets discontinued in the USA. I highly recommen it!

I generally hate hairspray because my hair is fine and most sprays tend to leave it matted or crunchy. Elnett gives my hair volume, but the style stays flexible - so no helmet hair. I like the fact that it doesn't leave a residue, because the fine texture of my hair is prone to getting weighed down easily - plus, some products seem to darken the look of its light blonde colour, but not Elnett. The packaging is quite uninspiring (it looks really dated), but I've found it to out-perform high end (and more attractively presented) products. Elnett really does deserve its cult status.

I've been using this for about 9 months and i love it! I spray it over my hair after blowdrying and then used daily as the finishing touch to hold my style. I have fine straight hair and this gives it a nice amount of volume without weighing my hair down or making it feel sticky. If i put waves in my hair then again this gives great lift and a nice flexible natuaral hold. Before i started using this i hated hairspray but now i can't live without very volume!!!!

After reading reviews here, I decided to splurge and try this. Since I didn't want to shell out $15.00 for a large size (in case I hated it) I bought a small travel size that was around $7. Great hairspray, and I don't normally use spray unless I'm going out on the town. It held my style nicely and gave some fullness and volume too. Washed out easily the next day and did not leave a "glue" residue behind in my hair. More than I would normally spend for a hairspray, but I recommend it if you feel like splurging.
Somewhat disappointed with this. I don't hate it, but I was expecting to love it =( My hair isn't flat or anything, but I love having extra volume. We all look sexier with some volume to our hair, right? Anyway, I got this in 'very volume' because...well...I thought it would give me a tonne of volume. It doesn't. In fact, it adds really minimal volume, much to my dismay. Whether I tip my head upside down, shake it all around, fluff it up...just doesn't pump up the volume!
However, I do like that this is non-sticky and doesn't leave build-up residue in my hair. It doesn't provide much hold at all, but I like that. It's natural hold hairspray to me. However, I just don't see much point using this if I get such little volume.
I wouldn't repurchase.
I love this product and I am so not a hairspray kind of girl. I bought my bottle in France last June and still have almost a quarter of it left. It gives a lovely hold and sheen without any of the dreaded crunchiness. As for the fragrance, I really enjoy it, particularly since it reminds me of Paris. Yes, it is highly fragranced, but in a very French way, if you know what I mean. This is an HG hair product for me.
