ExStatyk - Anti Static Hypoallergenic Spray, Anti- Frizz, Fragrance Free, unscented

HALLELUJAH! Sorry, just had to get that out of the way. People are always complimenting me on my hair. "Oh it's so soft and shiny, I'm so jealous!" they say as they pet me. Yes, when properly cared for, fresh after a shower, my hair is very soft and shiny and straight. What they don't realize are the battles I fight on a daily basis to keep it looking ok. My hair is thin and baby fine and stick straight. It won't hold a curl to SAVE MY LIFE, it quickly becomes tangled, easily loses volume, becomes limp and lifeless and gets oily. I have to brush it ALL THE TIME. The worst problem is probably the static, especially in the winter. Every time I take off my coat it's like I'm back in 8th grade science class with my hand on the Van de Graaff generator. They always used me as the guinea pig for those things because my hair responds the best (see pics for my hair type).I have tried EVERYTHING to reduce the static in my hair from expensive shampoos and conditioners to sandalwood hair brushes. I carry lotion and dryer sheets with me everywhere and when I'm in a pinch I pull out a dryer sheet or lather up my hands with lotion and rub some into the ends of my hair if I'm really desperate, but this either leaves my hair weighed down and dull/greasy or makes my head smell like apple mango tango.I bought this stuff in hopes of helping me with my problem prior to traveling to Arizona where my family lives for not one but 2 extended family photo shoots in a single weekend. It's even drier in AZ than where I live and I was worried my flying hair would ruin the picture. It arrived just in time and I was THRILLED that it actually worked!I will say for the price I was expecting a bigger bottle, but whatever. After I wash and dry my hair, I spray one spritz of this stuff onto my hair brush and brush the ends of my hair up about half way at most. After brushing half my head, I spray one more spray and do the other side. I don't use this on the top of my head at all. That seems to be enough to last for several hours or the whole day depending on what else I do. For example, if I walk through wind and need to brush my hair many times, I'll probably need more, but if I do, I usually will spray it on my palms, rub together and then rub my palms over the ends of my hair once more and that will do the trick! I still keep dryer sheets with me since they're easier to tote in my bag than this bottle of spray, but I find myself using less and less dryer sheets than I ever have!This spray is TRULY scentless, which is just fine with me! I like being able to choose what I want my hair/head to smell like while still eliminating static. I appreciate that. Yes, this is expensive. Yes, this will weigh your hair down if you use too much or spray it directly on your hair. Yes, the bottle is kinda small. BUT IT WORKS!!! I'm a huge fan and will probably be a lifelong user if it continues to work this well for me. For the record I did NOT receive this product for free or at a discount. Hope this helps!

My teenage daughter has long, beautiful hair. It's winter in Ohio. Since we moved to the North last year, the heat blowing on it constantly and the dry air made her hair so static-filled. She talked often about cutting her hair because she was insanely irritated by the static. I begged her not to do that and I went searching the internet. This product has made a tremendous difference. She sprays her brush with about 3 squirts and focuses on the mid to lower areas of her hair (not scalp). It has NOT made her hair greasy or changed the natural shine. Instead it has made her hair manageable! Even with fleece jackets it lasts for most of the day with the original brushing. Early one morning, the first week she used it, my usually grumpy-in-the-morning 16 year old came over to me smiling and almost giddy because it was working!!! She thanked me so sincerely and I have not heard any more requests to cut off her hair! Brilliant product and well worth the $20. :)

Cuts down on static. Does not leave hair greasy. Works great...and I've tried lots of stuff!I used two new hair products when I reviewed this. Mistake! Shouldn't do and review. But I thought it was this spray that worked. Then, one day I didn't use the oil (Number 4 Lumiere d'hiver Fluoro5 Elixer Restore & Repair Oil, 2.0 fl. oz.) and just this product. Static was back. This helps but the oil was key. I just used one pump and rubbed my hands together and then through the hair (once it was dry), staying away from roots. If I use on wet hair or on roots it looked a little greasy. The oil had a nice soft scent. Hair was silky and shiny and static gone. I use the static spray on wet hair.

Great product. Sprayed lightly onto towel dry hair, styled and voila…no static.

I read a few reviews that said this product makes your hair greasy. I assumed they just used too much of it. I sprayed one light spray on my hairbrush from about 10 inches away and brushed through my hair. It left my hair slightly greasy and by the end of the day my hair felt dirty to the touch and rough-textured. I think it attracted an held any dirt from the wind, etc. It was moderately good at staving off static flyaway but is not worth the dirty hair.

Very disappointing. Hair static is gone for a few minutes and then it's back in a few minutes. I've applied it both wet and dry hair. I've sprayed it on my brush and I've applied it with my hands. Waste of money.

I have fine, long, straight hair; I live in New England where the heating season is long; and I wear a lot of fleece because I'm always cold. Put it all together and I'm the poster child for static.I tried 6 or 8 other antistatic products before stumbling on ExStatyk. Some were intended for clothing, some for hair. I even tried a couple of industrial antistatic sprays. None of them worked as well as ExStatyk -- they tend to wear off within 2 or 3 hours -- and most of them smell awful. (What is UP with Static Guard? their original scent has to be nastiest odor anybody ever paid money for.) ExStatyk has no detectable scent, thank goodness, and it lasts like crazy -- use it Monday morning and you're good till Tuesday night or even Wednesday morning if you don't wash it out. Brushing doesn't seem to slow it down.Use ExStatyk sparingly! I gave it top "value for money" marks because a little bit goes a very long way. (It's not cheap, but at the rate I'm using it my 4 oz bottle will last more than a year.) I never push the pump all the way down -- just put a few tiny spritzes on your brush, do a few quick, light strokes all around your head, then do a more thorough brushing to work it through.In addition to its antistatic awesomeness, ExStatyk has a mild smoothing effect that I like. It's very light and doesn't make my hair stiff or greasy. I've rarely come across a product that solved a problem so perfectly.
