Anyone wanting a light-to-medium hold finishing hairspray that keeps hair movable and brushable rather than stiff – useful for touch-ups during the day since it can go on wet or dry hair. Sebastian markets it across hair types and lengths, for both men and women.

What sets Shaper apart from a typical finishing hairspray is that it's meant to be used at either end of the styling process – misted on before blow-drying to help shape the style, or after, to hold it – while staying light enough that hair keeps its natural movement instead of getting a stiff, sprayed-down feel.

Hold the can about 10-12 inches from hair and spray. It can be applied before blow-drying to help shape the style or after blow-drying to hold it, and reapplied through the day for extra hold as needed.

Pros: the flash-dry formula lets it be used before or after blow-drying, which is more flexible than sprays meant only as a finishing step; medium hold keeps hair brushable rather than stiff; it can be reapplied through the day to boost hold without a heavy buildup. Cons: it's alcohol denat.-based, which can be drying to hair and scalp with frequent daily use; it carries a notably long list of fragrance allergens (hexyl cinnamal, benzyl salicylate, amyl cinnamal, citronellol, hydroxycitronellal, linalool, benzyl benzoate); and medium hold means it isn't built for extreme or all-day-humidity-proof styles.
