Most Helpful Positive Review LOVE!!! This was hands down the best part of the #pacificavoxbox. It smells SO GOOD! Genuinely one of the most pleasing scents in any hair or hygiene product that I have had. I would buy it for that alone, however I am here to let you know how testing the actual hair spray effectiveness goes. For context, I have completely obnoxious devil horns. The hair at my temples wants to make their short and disobedient presence known. It is so bad that I put hair spray or gel on them every day, regardless of if I leave the house or not (I never leave the house...). I will walk by a mirror and be startled by my hair looking like one of those troll dolls. The rest of my hair is well behaved. Straight and zero maintenance. This takes the devil horns down. I used it on wet hair and dry and it worked with both. It didnt leave my hair crunchy yet was strong enough to hold down stubborn hair. I am very impressed. I have tried a lot of things for this problem. I will absolutely repurchase this when it runs out.
Most Helpful Critical Review Oops so I just shaved my head but I will give as much feedback on the product as possible.
I am not a fan of this to start with, the scent is horribly strong and of my (personal) least favorite scent which is vanilla. It is such a strong sweet smell it puts me off almost entirely.
It's designed to be for medium hold and is probably great for texture. Short hair types, those who like beachy waves, this is going to be a product you will want to try. The price point is a lot more affordable than professional hair care, and many people enjoy the smell of vanilla. The packaging is very pretty and testing it on myself (despite my hair being very short currently) feels how I would expect it. Even though I don't enjoy it for myself, this is something I will use on my guests (provided they are ok with scents. I always check) I'm a hairstylist and I am always looking for new texture products to try.

Nice beach smell however I personally don't like to feel my hair sticky
More of a hair fragrance 3
NiYo from Vacaville, CA
Was okay for a medium hold hairspray. The fragrance is nice but definitely a juvenile scent. You'll be smelling you candy scented hair throughout the day so do not over spray unless you really enjoy the smell.
Great product, overpowering fragrance. 3
J9Music from Minneapolis, MN
I adore Pacifica and their beauty products for face, skin, hair, and makeup. I love the unique combinations of scents and Pacifica's commitment to good ingredients. This hairspray is a fine product with hold, however the scent is SO strong and lasting, that I just can't wear it. :(
Weightless, shine, and gentle scent. 5
LJ from Los Angeles
I was looking for something that would address my fly always, was non aerosol, and that I could run my hands through. This far exceeded my expectations. This has a very light and pretty natural vanilla smell. Its a friendly scent rather than overwhelming and synthetic, ahem Dry Bar.
If you want something that will impart shine, relax fly aways, and not weigh the hair down you can't get any better.
NEVER AGAIN 3
Jamie from Lansing
The smell is horrible. it smells like overly sugary chemicals/ cotton candy. Like the body spray we wore in middle school. made my hair too crunchy. hate it!
Works well ! 4
Ctot from Virginia
Very light hold and smells good. It lasted for days!
Want to love it 4
DB07 from Northern, MI
I want to love it because it's not sticky and doesn't make my hair crunchy, but I am just not sold on it for my fine hair. It doesn't keep my flyaways in place.
Nice scent, light hold. 4
KerryChiTown from Chicago
This spray is exactly as advertised. It gives you some volume and a gentle hold. If you really want it to keep your hair in place it won't do that, but it definitely gives you some bounce and lift at the roots. The smell is nice but prominent when you first spray it on, but it's not overpowering and fades throughout the day. After a little while you just smell it when you touch your hair. I'll buy this again.

Love how it smells, how light it sprays on, and how it holds! It was a on a whim purchase and love it
Holy Fragrance!! 2
CM from FL
Two stars here because Pacifica is a cruelty free brand, which is very important to me as a consumer. But on this particular product, I would not recommend it. It has a VERY STRONG, sickeningly sweet artificial fragrance that will be with you, wafting into your face, until you wash it out. Literally your head will smell like a bag of cotton candy. No thanks.
Will definitely buy again 5
Angel from Wyoming
Great product. Works great without giving hair a hard or sticky feel.

rogue__waves from undisclosed
I already have naturally wavy hair and I impulse bought this for a little extra hold. It doesn't have much of it, it is soft hold after all but I did notice a difference in volume. This is definitely the type of spray that makes frizz functional. I don't think I'll repurchase though. I prefer Living Proof.

Hold it right there! 4
Peachy! from Louisiana
I fell like it does exactly what I want it to do, hold my curls, but make them look natural. I love the smell, that it is all natural, and is cruelty free!

thesehzleyes from undisclosed
This is my new favorite hair spray. I don't even need to wear perfume when I use it because the smell is so strong and so good. It definitely smells like vanilla. It also has a really strong hold without being sticky and you don't need a lot at all. It did an amazing job holding my hair after I curled it.
This is the greatest... 5

This is the greatest hairspray ever for beach waves! I use it every day and I always gets tons of compliments because people think I smell amazing. I can't complain. I love the smell too! Holds Pacifica Big Waves Soft Hold Volume Hairspray with just the right amount of bounce without being crunchy or stiff
Smells Amazing 5

I love this hairspray, it smells so good like coconuts and the scent lasts all day. It doesn't make your hair too stiff or sticky either. It's perfect.

Love how this doesn't make my hair "crispy" but does keep the frizz to a minimum.

The smell was so strong and I didn't notice any difference after I sprayed it on.
