Hey guys I am looking for a hairspray that will hold my hair for the whole day. I am currently using Sebastian Craft clay and Sebastian Reshaper Fierce for my hairspray. However, I feel that the hairspray does not have enough holding power for my hair.. it all crumbles down after a few hours leaving my hair look sort of untouched. Which kinda pisses me off as I had to go to the toilet often to redo my hair and this would keep repeating for the whole day lol. I see some of you guys recommending Osis hairspray..but there are ****loads of Osis hairsprays to choose from lol. May I know which is the best for holding my hair and I wouldn't want my hair to look greasy as i would much prefer a matt-y look to it. Any help would be much appreciated thanks in advance! :D

Grey Uevo is matte. I am buying Uevo Wax tomorrow, will post a review maybe Monday?

Unless anyone recommends Nakano over Uevo?

Waiting for your review before I decided to go for Uevo wax or Hoyu Minitre Ultra Strong wax.

You mean Uevo wax is sold in Singapore?

Do you mean the Arimino Peace Freeze Wax?

Oh yeah I'm from Canada ha :). I found this forum a little while ago and unlike other forums (used mainly by Americans) you guys know other waxes besides Gatsby and Nakano.

Anyways my little review on Arimino:

Pros: It spread easily into my hair and I was able to create lots of texture and bundles. The hold was pretty good too (keep in mind I used hairspray though), after riding with a bike helmet my hair was still able to be styled afterwards. It is matte too (which I like). It smells alright I guess but I'm not really picky about smell. The packaging is neat as well and I must admit I found myself opening and closing the cap a couple times (it makes this little 'click':s13:).

Cons: I found the wax difficult to wash off, especially since I like to wash my hair at most twice a week. I will probably have to wash it everyday now since water alone doesn't seem to get it off. The wax is pretty expensive too, $38 (CAD) for 80g :s31:.

Oh, you mean you buy it in Canada?

Currently I am using Arimino Peace Freeze Wax but do not really like it, that why I am sourcing for other wax.

i asked my fren to get it in Japan. Cost about 1,400 yen, i think $25 is a reasonable price if available in Singapore. I am also looking for it as my current one is finishing soon, if not i will have to wait for my fren to go on business trip again to get it for me lol. :o
