Today’s tale is about Goldwell – a beautiful hair care line that offers something for every hair type and every styling issue or demand. Goldwell offers a beautiful array of shampoo’s and conditioner’s for all hair types and hair woes. Today’s focus is on their styling products. Many of Goldwell’s styling products offer shine, color protection and thermal protection. Some of Goldwell’s styling products are Humidity Resistant (fights frizz) as well, such as;
– Big Finish Volume Hairspray
– Diamond Gloss Micro Fine Shine Spray
– Hot Form Heat Styling Lotion
– Flat Marvel Straightening Balm
– Sleek Perfection Thermal Spray Serum
– Crystal Turn Curl Gel Wax
Over the past couple of years, Goldwell has also revamped their styling line…before you start to hyperventilate that your favorite product is no longer, calm down and take a breath. Again. Now, as you know my aim is always to educate and enlighten. Below you will find a list of Goldwell products that have been discontinued and replaced by another. You’re welcome.

Hi there! I used to use Goldwell Star Polish which is a shine wax. Do you know if there is a replacement for this item? If not, can you suggest one that would be similar. Thank you!
Hello! Try Goldwell’s Spun Shine. It has the same hold factor & shine factor as the Star Polish. It is a cream base, so a little easier to apply.
Thank you for getting back to me! I really do appreciated it…and so does my hair! Happy New Year!
I love this blog. You are the only source of info I’ve found re the replacement products for Goldwell’s Wild Composer. The only problem Im finding is that Lagoom Gel, which you identified as the replacement, seems to come in 3 forms and I don’t know which is which. The Goldwell website provides no info at all. Can you help clarify?
Thank you! As for Lagoom Gel there is only one type. You may have run into different descriptions of the same product.
I can’t believe how fast you replied. Now I know what I’m looking for. It’s a near-disaster when a much-loved product is discontinued. I’m so happy I found your blog. It’s entertaining and offers exceptional information. Thank you for your work and your professionalism!
