The Wella Absolute Set Ultra Stark Spray is a product that would definitely satisfy anyone looking for a 'strong-hold hair spray'. In particular, I often had the experience of my bangs, which I had carefully styled with a curling iron, being ruined by a single gust of wind, so I really wanted to find a product with satisfactory fixing power, and this product precisely met that need. The first advantage is the 'overwhelming fixing power'. Just one spray and the hair is fixed in place, and it doesn't get messed up even in the wind. It is especially effective for styling bangs or stray hairs. If I spray it on after curling my bangs in the morning, the shape is maintained all day without having to touch it. Even in the rainy season or humid weather, the fixing power doesn't falter, so I strongly recommend it for the summer when hair is greatly affected by the weather. The second is the non-sticky, refreshing finish. Most strong-hold sprays tend to make the hair stiff or leave a white residue where sprayed. However, this product remains natural even right after application, and the hair doesn't feel stiff or gummy when touched by hand. The texture maintains the strength of the hold without compromising the natural look, making it suitable for daily use. The third is that the fragrance is not too strong. Sprays with overpowering fragrances can be headache-inducing and clash with other perfumes or products, but this product has a subtle, clean, slightly powdery scent that doesn't interfere with the overall styling. The fourth is the wide-area spray coverage. The nozzle sprays evenly, distributing the product consistently across the entire head, and it doesn't clump, so it's easy to layer thinly multiple times. By spraying, drying with a blow dryer, and repeating, the fixing power is amplified. The price-to-volume ratio is quite generous, and a single bottle can last for several months, demonstrating its durability. Seeing reviews that it's also used in salons, this is clearly a quality product.
Cons
The first difficulty is cleansing. While it is an advantage to be fixed all day, when washing your hair in the evening, rinsing alone is not enough to completely remove it. Especially if you have sprayed it multiple times, the sprayed area feels stiff and rigid, and you have to wash it thoroughly with shampoo more than twice to remove it completely. If you dry it with residue left, your hair may feel coarse. The second is that it can be a bit irritating to sensitive scalps. I don't have a particularly sensitive scalp, but when I use this product frequently near the roots of my bangs, my scalp sometimes feels itchy or irritated. Especially when spraying from close up, the sprayed mist can clog the pores and cause a stuffy feeling, so you need to adjust the distance when using it. The third is that the smell can be strong when used indoors. The scent of the product itself is subtle, but since a lot is sprayed and dispersed in fine particles, it can make your throat feel scratchy or cause coughing when used in an enclosed space. You must ventilate thoroughly after use and be careful not to let it get too close to your face. The last is that it is difficult to control the exact amount. It sprays like a mist, but when you press the spray once, it disperses over a wider area than expected, making it hard to control a small amount. So when you only want to use it on a small area like your bangs, it often ends up spraying more broadly than the desired area.
Tip
Additionally, while the fragrance itself is subtle, the initial spray may be slightly irritating to sensitive individuals. When using indoors, it is essential to keep windows open or avoid spraying directly on clothing.

I bought the must-have item for maintaining Lisa's bangs from BLACKPINK! It really puffs up the bangs well and doesn't fall apart, so I'm completely satisfied!!👍👍👍
Cons
Hmm.. the only thing is that the spray force is strong, so you need to aim carefully from the start?

It has good adhesion and good spray force, and I'm using it with moderate satisfaction.
Cons
When I first used it, something strange happened and I was flustered, but since then I've been careful to adjust the amount and use it cautiously.

It is fixed very well. Spray and let it air dry naturally. I bought it for fixing the side hair, and I'm satisfied.
Cons
When I first used it, I couldn't spray it well, so a white residue-like thing formed and hardened...

While it's not a mist spray, it sprays well in a general spray format and has good lasting power.
Cons
The opening seems to leak a bit. You need to adjust it carefully when spraying.

- Hold: While my hands are not the most skilled, once I started using it, I found that it has decent hold, though the effect tends to wear off over time. - Fragrance: Compared to other sprays, the scent is not as overpowering, which is a plus.
Cons
- Clumping: When spraying one area for more than 3 seconds, it can cause clumping, leaving a whitish, shimmery appearance... It might look like your hair is thinning from a distance. - Spray Nozzle: The spray itself is good, but after about 2 months of use, the nozzle can get clogged due to the product buildup. You can poke it with a needle and wipe the area to get it working again, but the frequent clogging is the biggest downside. - Amount: The amount is both a pro and a con - it's too much to carry around, so it might be better to get a smaller size for travel.
Tip
Spray from a distance and avoid getting it in your eyes. Use one hand to spray, while the other hand covers your forehead slightly. Then, use a hot blow dryer to set the hold. When spraying, do it in light, quick bursts while checking the hold.

The fixation is quite smooth and stable. The dispersive power is also good!
Cons
There is a slight grape-like aroma, but it's not bothersome enough to be a concern, though some people may dislike it.

This is the best when it comes to holding power. I was recommended it and have escaped the nomadic lifestyle!
Cons
If you don't spray it just right, it gets sticky, but that's the case with all sprays..

I bought the spray that the singer Lisa uses, and it's great. It has strong hold and I don't have to worry about my bangs, which is really nice. I usually spray it about 4 times to set it, and that seems to last me through the day. I'm so glad I finally discovered this - the 500ml bottle is huge, so I think it will last me over a year.
Cons
The ingredients don't seem great. It does cause something to appear on my forehead. Aww, I can't use it every day, but I'll have to use it occasionally on important days.
Tip
Use a comb to neatly style your bangs, then quickly blow-dry.
