It's lighter than I expected with no stickiness, but the finish feels definitely solid...! It really feels like it holds the hair perfectly!! My bleached hair is super frizzy, but this adds weight and keeps it neatly in place, which I loved 👏😂 Clean finish = Airua. Also, the scent is one that makes people turn around even from a distance...! It's a strong, distinctive scent that's gender-neutral and instantly recognizable...!
