I've used several hairsprays over the years, and the TRESemmé Extra Hold Hair Spray stands out primarily for its impressive hold. When I tried it, the very first thing I noticed was just how firmly it kept my hairstyles intact—even in humid conditions. It truly lives up to its promise of a 24-hour hold, which is fantastic for those busy days or special events where you need your hair to stay put. However, the tradeoff with this hairspray is noticeable frizz. My hair tends to get a bit curly and frizzy with products that have strong hold, and this one was no exception. The crunchy texture it leaves isn't for everyone and can be uncomfortable if you like your hair to feel soft and flexible. For me, this meant I avoided using it every day and reserved it for when I needed extra hold, like for braids or updos. On the plus side, the scent is distinctly TRESemmé—familiar, not overpowering. It reminded me of professional salon products, which gave me confidence in its quality. Plus, the affordability and the large 14.6 oz bottle size made it great value, lasting me a long time. If you’re managing frizz regularly, pairing this hairspray with a smoothing serum or anti-frizz cream before application can help maintain a sleeker look without sacrificing hold. In my experience, layering these products creates a balance between control and softness. Also, spraying from a bit further away and lightly misting can reduce that crunchy feel. Overall, TRESemmé Extra Hold Hair Spray is a strong performer for hold-conscious users who can tolerate some texture change. For those prioritizing frizz control and natural hair feel, it may not be the first choice, but with proper layering and techniques, it’s a reliable option in the hairspray lineup.
