Maria Nila describe it precisely: strong hold, yet easy to brush out. That combination is harder to formulate than it sounds, because the two properties normally trade against each other — the stronger the film, the more it resists a comb. At hold 4 out of 5 Finishing Spray sits deliberately below Extreme Spray so that you keep the ability to change your mind. You can set a style in the morning, brush it out in the afternoon and restyle without washing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt shares a resin family with Extreme Spray — octylacrylamide\/acrylates\/butylaminoethyl methacrylate copolymer, neutralised with aminomethyl propanol — but at a load that produces a film with lower cohesive strength. That is the whole difference, and it is a deliberate one: enough structure to keep a shape, not so much that it locks. C12-15 alkyl benzoate keeps the film flexible. Maria Nila's Colour Guard Complex handles UV and free radicals, and the scent is a fresh pineapple and blackberry rather than the sweeter vanilla and passion fruit on Extreme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere it comes into its own is curls. Maria Nila's own recommendation is to spray only the curls themselves rather than the whole head, which leaves the roots and the lengths free to move while the pattern stays defined. That is a technique note worth taking seriously — over-spraying is what makes finished curls look glued together rather than separated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Active Ingredient(s)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOctylacrylamide\/Acrylates\/Butylaminoethyl Methacrylate Copolymer:\u003c\/strong\u003e The amphoteric hold resin, used here at a lower load than in Extreme Spray.

Lift a formed curl into your cupped palm, mist the underside of it from 25 cm, and let it drop — never spray over the top of the head. Spraying the whole head bonds curls to their neighbours at the points where they touch, and the moment you move, those bonds break and the pattern frizzes at exactly the places you glued. Treating each curl as a separate unit is what keeps definition and movement at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNot the Right Fit If...\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are setting a wedding updo or a backcombed shape that cannot be allowed to drop, hold 4 is the wrong tool — Extreme Spray at hold 5 exists precisely for that. And if you want to layer a spray repeatedly through a blow-dry while brushing between passes, Styling Spray at hold 2 is formulated to build that way; this one is meant to close a style, not to be worked into it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlow-dry or style the hair completely first — this is a dry-hair product.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShake well and hold the can roughly 25 to 30 cm away.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMist evenly over the finished shape, or over individual curls only.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLet it dry before touching — pressing a wet film flattens the shape you just set.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrush through and reapply later in the day if you want to restyle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Maria Nila","offers":[{"title":"100 ml","offer_id":49911818617060,"sku":"MN380112CA","price":26.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"400 ml","offer_id":49911818649828,"sku":"MN380012CA","price":51.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0513\/2831\/9677\/files\/IMGs_f38001finishingspray398mlNA2024-10-14_1.jpg?v=1789819492","url":"https:\/\/www.modasalon.ca\/fr\/products\/maria-nila-finishing-spray","provider":"Moda Salon","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
