Alongside a super-cleansing shampoo, nourishing conditioner, texturising spray and trusty dry shampoo, a good old hairspray holds a very firm place in our cosmetics case.

Not only does a great hairspray keep your hairstyle in tact, it can also give incredible lifting volume to both thick and fine hair, and some seriously glossy shine.

We've rounded up the best hairsprays on the market that are sure to become a staple in your bathroom cupboard. Spritz away!


  • Zero stickiness is the name of the game with this award-winning hair spray. Also comes in a handy travel-sized can for £13.


  • Ouai haircare is big news in the beauty game right now, and this hairspray is one everyone should have in their bathroom cabinet. It protects hair from up to 450-degree heat, locks in any style, and adds shape and texture. Simply spray on damp or dry hair before styling.


  • Looking for super-strong hold? This is the spray for you. With heat protection and humidity resistance, Sculpture Spray is ideal for holidays in balmy climates, which can make styles drop in minutes.

  • John Frieda Luxurious Forever Full Hairspray (£5.99)

    Ideal for those with finer hair, John Frieda's hair spray builds fullness for limp, lacklustre hair while holding it in place. Even though this spray is ultra-fine, a little goes a long way.


  • If you're looking to enhance hair growth, Josh Rosebrook's products are the one for you. Not only does this hold your style firmly in place, but the super-nourishing herbal ingredients help to stimulate the hair follicle. Genius stuff.


  • Does exactly what it says on the brilliantly-named tin – just a few spritzes of this onto your hair and the style will last all night long.


  • The perfect versatile hair spray – use for curling, setting, for high-shine, straightening or just long-lasting style. The fine and brushable formula creates the perfect 'barely there' look for natural hair.


  • Designed for any hair type or style, this spray gives light, buildable hold, with a brushable finish, so there's no tell-tale stiff strands or sticky finishes.


  • We love the signature bergamot-and-jasmine scent of Oribe's products, and this hairspray is essentially a shine spray, firm hold and hair perfume all in one.


  • Going big? Course you are. And you need this L'Oreal spray in your haircare arsenal. The non-rigid formula even states that it's perfect for 'big beehive and mane hairstyles', plus 30% more volume for up to 24 hours. We're sold.
