Overview
This HTS category, 3305.30.00.00, specifically covers hair lacquers. These are preparations designed to provide hold and style to the hair, typically dispensed in aerosol cans or pump spray bottles. Their primary function is to create a stiff or semi-stiff finish to a hairstyle, holding it in place for an extended period.
Distinguishing hair lacquers from their siblings, this category is distinct from shampoos (3305.10.00.00) which are used for cleansing hair, and preparations for permanent waving or straightening (3305.20.00.00) which chemically alter the hair's structure. While all fall under "Preparations for use on the hair," the specific purpose of providing a fixed style differentiates hair lacquers. The residual category, "Other" (3305.90.00.00), encompasses a broader range of hair care products not specifically enumerated elsewhere.
As a leaf node, 3305.30.00.00 does not have further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this heading relies on accurately identifying the product's intended use as a hair lacquer. Examples include aerosol hairsprays, styling sprays designed for firm hold, and other similar formulations primarily intended to fix hairstyles. The key classification criterion is the product's function in imparting a rigid or semi-rigid hold to the hair.
