Milbon Firm Hold Shielding 10 9oz

This is Milbon's strongest hairspray — level 10 on their hold scale — and the one we use when a style has to survive a wedding, a photo shoot, or an August afternoon on the river. Milbon describes it as crafted to defy time and humidity: powerful all-day hold with real humidity resistance, yet non-flaking and easy to wash out.

The formula includes a vitamin C derivative and bisabolol, ingredients Milbon selected for their protective properties against UV and heat up to 450°F, so it's doing a bit of shielding as well as holding.

How to use: Hold the can about 12 inches from the head and spray over dry, finished hair for long-lasting hold. Keep it moving — a light, even veil locks better than a wet blast.

If you want something you can brush through and restyle during the day, reach for the Flex Memory Hairspray 7 instead. Ask your stylist at Reverie Salon in River North which finish suits your look. This is the large 9.1 oz can (level 10 hold). Browse our Milbon collection.
