I've given up on my hair for the summer.... it has a natural wave that's next to impossible to avoid in this humidity, even with blow drying with a round brush. So I've taken to scrunching my hair when it's wet (using my fingers for the top and a towel at the bottom). I only have some cheap drugstore brand scrunch spray - the name of which escapes me - and it works decently but leaves my hair feeling very sticky. Any good recommendations for a scrunching spray out there? TIA! |

I'm not sure about a spray but I use ISO's Bouncy Creme. I put a bit on my palms - rub together and scrunch on my hair - revives my permed curls very naturally with NO frizz whatsoever. It's not sticky at all and has a very light consistency. It doesn't make my hair crunchy or anything - just very natural looking curls. |

WHere do you order ISO?
I know what I don't recommend...Frederic Fekkai Wave creating spray.
Can ONLY be used on dry hair and it made my hair sticky and gunky. Swapped it on MUA to a gal who absolutely loved it though. It just wasn't for me.
But I do love other FF products! |

I don't order. Luckily I live in Vancouver where TONS of store carry this brand. MUA raves about this product as well - but apparently a lot of MUAers have trouble finding this as well. It also comes in a convenient plastic pump bottle - and was even recently on sale! If you really want to try give me a PM and I'll see if I can help |

I've been having the same problem and got tired of straightening my hair this summer. Anyway, I know it's not a spray, but I've been using the Aveda Retexturizing Gel with a couple drops of Smoothing Fluid mixed together. If I don't add the Smoothing Fluid, it can be kinda crunchy(?). Afterwards, I blow dry with a diffuser. HTH. |

Yes, LandB, my hair is the same way. I could stand all day in front of the mirror trying to blow dry it and it will never get dry, and on the chance that it does, it will look something akin to a dried out afro. You know what's a good product? Frizz-Ease Dream Curls. It's a spray, and it leaves curls defined and soft. In fact, I need to pick some up today! Another good trick is to coat your hands with a creme (Fekkai glossing creme, or just anything as long as it's not exclusively for straightening as it would be too stiff) and take random pieces of your hair twist them up to your head, let them go and then just let them air dry. You'll get a nice tendril-y look. |

I used to use frizz-ease mousse, but it left my hair crunchy, and I recently switched to Tresemme touchable curls shaping milk, and it leaves my hair more natural. It's really cheap, too (less than $4). It's in a pump, though, not a spray. |

No, tons of places means tons of salons or almost any store that sells ONLY hair products. In Van for example you can find it at zennkai or mega hair salon - in metrotown or richmond center. I would try Richmond center as a best bet. Richmond Center also has another store that sells this brand near the Grand and toY location (G&T isn't there anymore but it's off the corner of The Body Shop). They also sell it at the hair product store on the 2nd level of Yaohan, also in Richmond. Many salons also carry this brand. |

I don't really bother too much with hair product any more when styling my hair curly as it a minefield and I spent too much money trying to find the HG. I have for a while just put some good old fashioned mousse in my hair, then started with the undersection (pin the rest of the hair up) and get section of hair and twist around your finger until its tight then let go. Do this all over your head. Leave to dry naturally and you get tons of lovely ringlets! Its a really good trick and once you get the hang of it takes about 10 minutes. I always get lots of compliments when I do this. (Only works if your hair is naturally curly though) It is really great on my frizzy, thick hair. |
