Unlike some of the stickier volumizing sprays we've taken on a test-drive, Honest's version builds body with the hero ingredient of pea protein, so you can still run your hands through your layers without catching any stiff pieces.

Ulta

Although hair powders impart a bedhead texture that won't quit, placing the product can be tricky, often resulting in a heavy-handed application that leaves our strands stiff. Thanks to the hybrid formula, Joico's version gives you the precision of a liquid styler, but the tousled, "I woke up like this" finish we all strive to achieve.
