I was really upset when I could no longer order Alberto VO5 Extreme Style Max Hold hair spray from you anymore. I used it for years and loved it. I took your substitute advice and ordered the Brush Out hairspray and boy I'm glad I did! It holds and adds body just as great but does not have that sometimes harsh and sticky feel that the Max Hold had. I love being able to comb through it the next day. Thank you, thank you for recommending a top-notch hair spray!

I used this like I would any hairspray... normally just to keep my hair from falling out of place during the day, no complicated styles or anything. Plain and simple, this just doesn't work. Sure it's light, and you can brush it out, but if hairspray can't even hold a few hours then what's the point?

    Comments about Alberto VO5 Hair Spray Brush Out Crystal Clear, 14 Hour Hold, 8.5 oz:

    I like this product also. It is a very light weight hairspray that seems to never get too sticky no matter how much you use. I had a hard time telling if there was hairspray at all on my hair. It did hold but not as much as I would like it to since I have unruly wavy, frizzy hair. This product would be best for people that have thin, straight hair. And, yes, you definitely can comb thru with no problems. But I don't know if you would still get the hold if you did comb thru. I think I am going to stick with the Alberto VO5 Perfect Hold Styling Hairspray.

        VO5 is the best hairspray in inclement weather. It
        does not get heavy and sticky. I have used it at
        the beach in heavy misty weather and rain. It washes out easily. It does not discolor hair. I
        used VO5 in the 60's and now. Good Product

          Comments about Alberto VO5 Hair Spray Brush Out Crystal Clear, 14 Hour Hold, 8.5 oz:

          I've been using this hairspray for years, and haven't found anything that works as well for my needs and hair type. It provides just enough hold, but leaves my hair looking natural. It's easy to brush through if I need to restyle. I love the fact that there's no smell once it's applied. Who needs a bunch of conflicting scents clinging to them? Also, it's very reasonably priced, which is a huge plus.

                    This hairspray is perfect except for one thing. It stinks! It smells like raw squash and never goes away. Make this "unscented" and you have a miracle hairspray.

                              Have used VO-5 hair spray for decades & it's the only one that holds without making hair feel like a board, & completely brushes out to soft hair! Only available now at DrugStore.com - not available in stores anymore... at least I can still buy it online! Highly recommend!
