I like this product for when I'm going to parties, weddings or other special occasions. I spray a bit on my palms and rub them together, then gently smooth my palms over my hair to smooth fly aways and give my hair subtle shimmer. It works fairly well to keep my fly aways down and give my hair some sparkle. I never sprayed the product directly on my hair though, so I'm not sure how it would look or work if you did it that way.
