I've been using Redken Spray Starch 15 and have been happy with it for the most part, but I am always looking to try something new and exciting. What have you been using? What have your experiences been? Lets hear it!

Thanks for reading,
Stu

That new stuff in the green bottles---Fruictris? That stuff is really good. Smells great, non sticky. like it a lot.

I will look it up. Thanks for the suggestion.

EDIT: Its called Fructis, and it looks pretty good. Where did you get it? Online or store?

i use garnier fructis stuff. They don't have the tighest holding stuff in the world, but what previous person said is true.


edit: you should be able to get it at any drug/grocery store

I have tried several (L'Oreal, Tresemme, Dep, LA Looks, Fructis, Suave) in the last 4-5 years and have finally settled at "Crew". Its the costliest in the bunch but is worth it. Smells nice (my girl says so) and doesn't turn the hair grey.

Edit: I have seen that crew isn't available at some of the grocery store (even though the two I go to keep them) but you can surely find them at salons at maybe a $1 more.

putting stuff in your hair to hold it is not gay. rambling on about how detroit doesn't make crappy cars anymore is.

Actually, I think knowing a place that has that picture is pretty questionable. :)

You can get it anywhere. Target, Walmart...anyplace that sells guy hair stuff. It has an odd gooey feel to it, but it sets up nicely- almost like a wax.
