What the gurus are saying

This hairspray earns praise for its soft hold that doesn't feel crunchy, stiff, or sticky while still letting hair move. Testers also found it doesn't dry hair out. However, another take was more reserved, with the assessment that it was just all right, making this verdict mixed.

"The Flex Hairspray by Living Proof is on Amazon Prime Day and I'm restocking it because I go through a lot of it. I think this is the softest hold hairspray that lets your hair still move without feeling crunchy, stiff, or sticky like so many hairsprays, and it doesn't seem to dry my hair out. I've been using this exclusively since I discovered it a few months ago."

"I've used the Living Proof Flex hairspray in the past, it's a nice, not too crunchy hairspray. It's expensive though, one of those to get at 50% off."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.
