REF Firm Hold Spray N°545

Vegan Maximum-Hold Pump Hairspray with Quinoa Protein

REF Firm Hold Spray N°545 is a non-aerosol pump hairspray built for serious, all-day hold. The Acrylates/t-Butylacrylamide Copolymer film-former delivers a firm, layerable grip, while the slow-drying mist stays workable long enough to sculpt the shape before it sets. Chenopodium Quinoa Seed Extract — REF's signature plant protein — and Tocopherol round out the formula. 100% vegan and cruelty-free.

Why Choose It?

• Maximum, Buildable Hold: A single acrylate copolymer film locks in the shape; layer extra passes where the style needs more grip.
• Slow-Drying, Workable Mist: Stays pliable for a few seconds after spraying so the style can still be shaped before it sets firm.
• Pump Spray, No Propellants: Non-aerosol bottle — no Dimethyl Ether or compressed gas, just a fine pump mist that's flight-friendly.
• Vegan Quinoa Protein Base: Chenopodium Quinoa Seed Extract supports condition under the film; 100% vegan and cruelty-free.

Best For

Long-hold styles that need to survive the whole day — sleek updos, sculpted partings, and quiff or pomp shapes that fight gravity. Also useful for taming fly-aways around the hairline after a blow-dry. Suits all hair types; the pump format makes it easy to travel with.

Use on dry hair as the final step, or on damp hair during the blow-dry for built-in structure.

• Finish the main styling — blow-dry, iron, or set the shape first.
• Hold the bottle 20–30 cm from the head.
• Pump in short, even bursts across the section that needs hold.
• Shape with fingers or a brush while the mist is still workable.
• Let the film set for a few seconds, then layer a second pass if more grip is needed.

Tips

• For a brighter, more reflective finish over the hold, mist a shine spray once the firm hold has set.
• Before hot tools, lay down a heat protection spray — this hairspray sets the shape but does not shield the strand from heat.
