About Our Hair Spray Collection
Hairsprays are sorted by hold and finish. Flexible and brushable sprays keep hair touchable and can be brushed through to restyle, which suits blow-dries, loose waves and everyday styles. Strong and extreme-hold sprays set firmly, which is what you want for updos, bridal hair, fine hair that drops quickly or a humid Auckland summer. Finishes range from natural to high shine.
The collection also includes working sprays and styling mists. Texture and dry texture sprays add grit and separation, root lifters and volume sprays build body at the base, sea salt sprays give a beachy finish, shine mists add gloss, and thermal sprays protect hair from straighteners and curling irons. Aerosol and non-aerosol options are both available, so you can choose the format you prefer.

Benefits of a Good Hair Spray
- Styles that last. The right hold keeps a blow-dry, curls or an updo in place for the whole day or night.
- Less frizz and fewer flyaways. A light mist smooths stray hairs and helps keep frizz down.
- Humidity resistance. Anti-humidity sprays help styles survive damp weather and steamy rooms.
- Control without crunch. Modern flexible sprays hold while staying soft and brushable.
- More body. Texture, root and volume sprays build fullness in fine or flat hair.
- Shine on demand. Shine sprays add gloss to finished styles without weighing hair down.
- Heat protection. Thermal sprays create a barrier before straighteners, wands and blow-dryers.
Hair Spray Buying Guide
Choose the hold. Use flexible or brushable sprays for everyday styles and loose waves, and strong or extreme hold for updos, formal styles and fine hair that drops quickly.
Pick the finish. Natural finishes suit most everyday looks. High-shine sprays such as Redken 18 Quick Dry suit polished, sleek styles. For a matte, lived-in look, use a dry texture spray instead of a traditional hairspray.
Aerosol or pump. Aerosols give a fine, even mist and dry quickly. Pump sprays, such as Schwarzkopf Silhouette Pumpspray, are easy to travel with and avoid propellant.
Spray from a distance. Hold the can about 25 to 30cm from your hair and mist in light layers. Several light passes give a softer, more even result than one heavy coat.
Build the style first. Apply heat protection before hot tools, use a root lifter or volume spray on damp hair, then finish with hairspray once the style is set.
Wash it out properly. Strong-hold sprays can build up. Shampoo thoroughly and use a clarifying wash now and then. Brushable sprays can simply be brushed through between washes.

Hair Spray FAQs
What is the difference between flexible and strong hold hairspray?
Flexible hold keeps hair soft and touchable so you can restyle it. Strong and extreme hold set firmly and keep structured styles, such as updos, in place.
What is a brushable hairspray?
A brushable hairspray holds the style but can be brushed through without flaking, so you can rework it. Redken Brushable Hairspray is an example.
Which hairspray has the strongest hold?
Extreme-hold sprays such as Schwarzkopf Osis+ Session, Redken 32 Max Hold and Alfaparf Semi De Lino Extreme Hairspray give the firmest hold in this collection.
Which hairspray is best for updos and weddings?
A strong or extreme-hold spray such as Schwarzkopf Silhouette Super Hold, Kevin Murphy Session Spray or Osis+ Session keeps formal styles in place for hours.
Which hairspray is best for fine hair?
Fine hair often drops quickly, so a strong but light spray works well. Build volume first with a root lifter, then finish with a light, even mist.
Which hairspray is best for humid weather?
Choose an anti-humidity spray such as Osmo Guardian Angel or a humidity-resistant hairspray like Joico Power Spray or Kevin Murphy Session Spray.
Which hairspray gives the most shine?
Redken 18 Quick Dry gives high shine, and Paul Mitchell Freeze And Shine adds shine with firm hold. Shine mists can be layered on top.
Is there a non-aerosol hairspray?
Yes. Schwarzkopf Silhouette Super Hold Pumpspray is a non-aerosol pump spray, and several other brands offer pump formats.
What is a working spray?
A working spray gives light, flexible hold while you style, so you can build shape and still move the hair. Davroe Flex Workable Hairspray is one example.
What is a texture spray?
A texture spray adds grip and separation for lived-in styles. Nak Hair Signature Dry Texture Spray and REF Texture Spray are popular choices.
What is the difference between hairspray and dry texture spray?
Hairspray mainly holds a finished style. Dry texture spray adds volume, grit and a matte finish, and is often used before or instead of hairspray.
What does sea salt spray do?
Sea salt spray adds soft texture and a beachy finish. Spray it on damp hair, then scrunch or blow-dry.
What is a root lifter?
A root lifter is sprayed at the roots of damp hair before blow-drying to add lift. Osmo Extreme Volume Root Lifter and Nak Hair Signature Root Lift Mist are examples.
What is a shine spray?
A shine spray adds a light gloss to finished styles. Nak Hair Signature Shine Mist, a best seller here, and REF Shine Spray are good options.
Do I need a heat protection spray?
If you use straighteners, curling irons or a blow-dryer, yes. Heat protection sprays such as Nak Hair Signature Thermal Shield help shield hair from heat.
What is Osmo Guardian Angel?
Osmo Guardian Angel Anti-Humidity Spray is a lightweight finishing spray for long-lasting frizz control and humidity resistance.
What is Wella EIMI Thermal Image?
EIMI Thermal Image is Wella Professionals' heat protection spray, used before hot tools. It is one of our best sellers in this collection.
What is Milk Shake Incredible Milk?
Incredible Milk is Milk Shake's leave-in treatment spray. It sits in this collection because it is sprayed on, and it is one of our best sellers.
What is Layrite Grooming Spray?
Layrite Grooming Spray adds volume, texture and hold with a natural look, and is popular as a pre-styler for men's styles.
How far away should I hold hairspray?
About 25 to 30cm from your hair. Closer than that and the spray can go on wet and heavy.
Should I spray hairspray on wet or dry hair?
Finishing hairspray goes on dry, styled hair. Root lifters, sea salt sprays and some heat protectors go on damp hair before styling.
How much hairspray should I use?
Start with a light mist and add more only if needed. Several light layers hold better and look more natural than one heavy coat.
How do I stop hairspray making my hair stiff?
Use a flexible or brushable spray, hold the can further away and apply in light layers.
How do I remove hairspray build-up?
Shampoo thoroughly, and use a clarifying shampoo once a week if you use strong-hold sprays daily.
Can I brush hair after using hairspray?
With brushable or flexible sprays, yes. Strong-hold lacquers are best left alone once set, or brushed out gently before washing.
Can hairspray damage hair?
Used normally, hairspray is not damaging. Build-up can make hair feel dry or dull, so wash it out regularly.
Is hairspray safe for coloured hair?
Yes. Some sprays, such as Osis+ Session and Kevin Murphy Session Spray, also include UV protection that helps protect colour.
Can men use hairspray?
Yes. A light grooming spray or hairspray can lock in a style on top of pomade or clay. Layrite Grooming Spray is popular with men.
Can I travel with hairspray?
Travel minis, such as REF Strong Hold Spray Mini 75ml and HH Simonsen Hairspray Travel 100ml, are easy to pack. Check your airline's rules for aerosols.
Are there large salon-size hairsprays?
Yes. Alfaparf Semi De Lino Extreme and Original Hairspray come in 500ml, and Schwarzkopf Silhouette comes in a 400g can.
What is a low-VOC hairspray?
VOCs are volatile organic compounds used in many aerosols. Kevin Murphy Session Spray is described as a low-VOC hairspray.
Which spray helps with frizz?
Anti-humidity sprays such as Osmo Guardian Angel and Joico Dream Blowout Glass help, as do smoothing leave-ins and shine mists.
What is the difference between hairspray and lacquer?
The terms are often used for the same thing. Lacquer usually refers to a strong-hold hairspray, such as Schwarzkopf Silhouette Super Hold Lacquer.
Should I use hairspray on curls?
Yes. A flexible spray helps curls last without crunch. Spray from a distance once curls have cooled.
Is Zilion an official stockist of these hairspray brands?
Yes. Zilion is an official NZ stockist of every brand in this collection, including Redken, Schwarzkopf Professional, Osmo, Nak Hair and Joico.
Are your hairsprays genuine?
Yes. As an official stockist we only sell genuine products.
How much does shipping cost?
Shipping is free on NZ orders over $85. Orders under $85 cost a flat $7.99 to metro and rural addresses.
How long does delivery take?
In-stock orders placed before 9am are dispatched the same business day. Metro deliveries take 1 to 4 business days and rural deliveries 3 to 7.
Why does hairspray take longer to arrive?
Aerosol hairsprays travel as dangerous goods, which can add a little transit time.
Can I pay with Afterpay or Zip?
Yes. Afterpay and Zip are both available at checkout.
Can I return a hairspray I have opened?
No. For hygiene reasons, opened or used products cannot be returned unless they are faulty.
What is your returns policy for unopened hairspray?
Unopened, unused items in original packaging can be returned within 30 days for a change of mind. Return postage and a restocking fee of $10 or 10% (whichever is less) apply.
What if my hairspray arrives damaged?
Email care@zilion.co.nz within 5 days of delivery with your order number and photos. We will arrange a replacement or refund.
Do you deliver to PO Boxes or overseas?
No. Our couriers do not deliver cosmetics to PO Boxes, and we ship within New Zealand only.
Can I track my order?
Yes. Once your order is dispatched you will receive an email with a tracking link.
Can hairspray help a blow-dry last longer?
Yes. A light mist of flexible or anti-humidity spray once the blow-dry has cooled helps it hold its shape.
Should I use mousse or hairspray?
Mousse goes on damp hair to build volume before styling; hairspray holds the finished look. Many people use both. See our Mousse collection.
What can I use for a matte finish instead of hairspray?
A dry texture spray or dry finish wax spray, such as Eleven Australia Dry Finish Wax Spray, gives hold with a matte look.
Do hairsprays have a scent?
Most have a light fragrance. Check the product page if you prefer a particular scent.
Who can help me choose a hairspray?
