I bought both the hard and soft versions to spray on my bangs and after comparing, I’m satisfied with the soft one. The hard one makes my hair stiff and greasy-looking, but the soft one looks natural^^ However, even with the soft spray, over time the curls loosen and the wind splits my bangs, but it’s still much better than not using anything. I’m happy with it haha. For short hair or long wavy hair, I think the hard spray is better^^
