Aveda Controlforce Firm Hold Spray

Breakdown

6 ingredients to avoid

Aveda Controlforce Firm Hold Spray scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Aveda Controlforce Firm Hold Spray lists 17 ingredients, starting with Alcohol Denat, Hydrofluorocarbon 152a, Octylacrylamide/Acrylates/Butylaminoethyl Methacrylate Copolymer, Aminomethyl Propanol and Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 15/100 Aveda Controlforce Firm Hold Spray scores worse than most styling products we have scored. A higher-scoring option in styling products is Carina Organics Alcohol-Free Unscented Styling Gel at 100/100.
