Will it make my hair feel stiff or leave flakes?

Is this safe for chemically treated or color-treated hair?

Yes—this hairspray is suitable for color-treated, Brazilian-treated, and keratin-treated hair. The inclusion of provitamin B5 supports hair smoothing and resilience, helping styles look polished without stripping treatment benefits.

• Provitamin B5 helps condition and smooth hair strands
• Helps preserve style integrity on treated hair

How should I use it for best results?

Hold the can about 8–12 inches from hair and mist evenly over finished sections for a long-lasting finish. For targeted strength, spray briefly at root or crown; for full-day hold, apply a light overall layer and reapply sparingly as needed.

• Use short bursts from 8–12 inches away
• Layer light applications rather than one heavy coating
• Use on dry hair for maximum freeze effect
