Why change such a great product??????
2 months ago
I 100% agree with all the recent reviews!
I too have used this product since the 80, almost 40 years! And this new can design is absolutely the WORST! The nozzle clogs after every use and the formula is not what it use to be. The hold is not near as good. This literally was the best hairspray on the market but not anymore.
PLEASE GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL CAN AND FORMULA!!!!!!!!!!
No, I do not recommend this product.

What did you do to Vavoom??? I used Vavoom extra full for years then found it had changed. Gone is the nice scent -- this replacement smells horrible. It has a cheap-perfume odor that is overpowering. The product doesn't work the same, either. It makes my scalp itch, doesn't hold well and has no shine. My new can went in the trash and I switched to another brand.

Do not like the new formula!
a year ago
I always used Vavoom Freezing spray finishing spray. Then they changed the formula and the packaging. The Beauty Supply I bought from recently suggested Freezing Spray extra hold. It is nothing like the old formula. It contains water which makes my hair frizz instead of holding the style. They went from an 11 0z that did not contain water to a 15oz can tand added water!

I will probably have to find a new one after many years of using this because when the bottles Changed. I feel like the hairspray changed first of all the spray nozzle keeps sticking down, I have to run it under hot water to use it every time and then hi, don't like the triple freeze. It has a scent and I don't like sense. They give me a headache. Also, if you made travel sizes, that would be great.

Makes my scalp itch terribly!
2 years ago
I have been using Vavoom Freezing Spray Finishing Spray (11 oz.) black can/silver at bottom for as long as I can remember, at least 25 years I'd say. It is perfect. Holds without being too firm and sticky, gives a nice shine, has a mild scent. However you have discontinued this product unfortunately. I've read reviews and many women were using this spray. I tried Vavoom Freezing Spray Extra Hold (15.0 oz) but it makes my scalp itch like crazy with severe irritation. I've never had this with the Finishing Spary. Spoke with Matrix Customer Support and they recommended High Amplify Proforma but I'm afraid I'll have the same scalp irritation. Please bring back the finishing spray. If not, Matrix will be a thing of the past for me as I will have to try and find another brand.
