Although this product has the type of hold I'm looking for in a hairspray (as well as the non-flaking factor), the smell is so pungent that I don't think I can repurchase. I'm only going to finish...

I don't know what the all hype is about with this product. Supposedly, this is the best selling hairspray in Europe. I lived in Germany for 2 years and never heard rave reviews. This reminds me...

I had this in normal hold. I am not sure what is the problem but I found this spray ruined my styling jobs a couple of time. I have limp hair - so I normally give it volume and then flick up the...

I just bought this product today and it already beats all the other hair sprays I have. What I love most is that it imparts shine - or at least doesn't take away the shine I already have - which I...

I'm just getting the hang of this spray. I have quite fine and thin hair that always falls limp. I think that this will become an HG of mine for styling but not setting. I'm over having crunchy...

Don't understand the hype. Did hear that the european version is the original so maybe that is better. Don't mind the smell. Maybe I'm just used to my sebastian but I find elnett a too sticky.

Even though this does smell kinda bad I love it because it brushes out easily and has a light hold. I use this when I just want a slight hold to my hair but don't want any stiffness.

The secret of the popularity of hairspays sold in Europe is that they are "dry" sprays. If you look at American brands, you will see that the number one ingredient is "aqua". The distinguishing...

This stuff is being marketed and hyped up so much, when it reality it's an average hairspray. It holds my curls somewhat when I wear my hair down, but does very little in keeping the "halo of...

I am in love with this HG hairspray! It's scent reminds me of what styling sprays would have smelled like in the 40's or 50's...ala Marilyn Monroe! The gold can is retro in feel and the spray is...

The smell is so strong and awful. Although I like the fine mist, this doesn't have good style memory at all. My curls fell flat within an hour and they looked greasy. Definitely will not...

Holy smells. After reading so much about it, decided to take the plunge and purchase this. I tried it on the morning on my way to work, and my DH asked if I had stepped on something. It was bad......

I absolutely live for hairspays and I finally got around to trying this- I bought a small travel size from Ulta in the extra hold version. I love the gold old-fashioned packaging and the fact that...

I recently got a travel size of this hairspray free. I would not normally buy such an expensive hairspray since I'm satisfied with the cheap $3 drugstore ones, but now I see what I've been missing!...

OMG the smell of it is awful. Like and olda lady's parfume, powdery, sweet and overpowering... The quality of the hairspray itself is really good. I would have given 5 lippies for it, but I just...

Reviewers aren't exaggerating when they complain about the smell. How to describe the smell? Strong, for one. Powdery. And not fresh powdery. Perfume-y powdery, like it was made for someone who has...

I just started using Elnett and I have to say I'm seriously impressed. I've always been a "hairspray is hairspray" type person, and I've used everything from Aqua Net and Suave to Artec and...
