AMP-Acrylates/Allyl Methacrylate Copolymer is incorporated into a crystal clear, weightless styling foam. This product provides strong hold due to the high actives level of the fixative, yet has good properties on wet hair due to the inclusion of PEG-33 and PEG-8 Dimethicone and PEG-14. This styling foam leaves hair with a long lasting hold that remains soft to the touch and free of tack (on both wet and dry hair). In addition, this styling foam has excellent foam quality and foam cell size – created without the use of potentially irritating surfactants.

This alcohol free spritz uses BIOSTYLE™ CGP polymer to provide stiffness and humidity resistance in a more natural working spray system. This water-based formula helps to sculpt and style wet hair and provides medium hold and stiffness when dry. The maltodextrin-derived BIOSTYLE CGP polymer is a low viscosity, easy to formulate liquid that requires no heating or neutralization, giving the formulator a simple way to create more natural and sustainable styling products. This working spray, based on the naturally-derived fixative polymer and containing no alcohol or propellants, is an environmentally-preferable way to create high-performance styling aids.

Known for its style retention and feel benefits, Dehydroxanthan Gum offers a gel that performs without any of the negatives associated with traditional systems. This gel leaves the hair feeling smooth and soft, yet the style is able to resist the negative effects of humidity resulting in long lasting style retention. Multifunctional, the Dehydroxanthan Gum acts as both the hair fixative and system thickener. It is easily dispersed in water, allowing for quick manufacturing time.

Men's Products: This spray gel formulation provides good wet combability and styling properties along with enhanced humidity resistance in a 'no-drip' formulation. Fixate™ G-100 Polymer provides excellent hold without the tackiness associated with many fixative polymers.

For hairstyles that last from day into night, AMAZE™ XT polymer provides unprecedented protection against the effects of humidity. Multifunctional, the AMAZE XT polymer acts as both the hair fixative and system thickener. It is easily dispersed in water, allowing for quick manufacturing time. AMAZE XT polymer also has suspending capabilities, allowing for the inclusion of glitter for a shimmering effect on hair.

In this basic, natural, water-based formula, KYTAMER™ PC serves as the hair fixative.

This moderate hold non-aerosol hair spray provides excellent shine to the hair. RESYN® 28-2930 polymer has moderate hold and is cost effective while AMPHOMER® polymer hair fixative provides good humidity resistance.

DERMACRYL® 79 polymer acts as a fixative in this powder aerosol formulation. DRY-FLO® PURE starch acts as a talc alternative in this innovative spray formulation.
