this review title is: it is true it smells moldy after a few uses and the content is: i saw some reviews stating it starts smelling moldy after a while it took about two weeks for me the spraying action is excellent but the smell clings to hair i tried to empty it every night to dry it out washed it with soap and vinegar the smell was there to stay i had to toss it i have seen different versions of this mister used by hairdressers and it never smelled not sure what it is i just switch to the regular spray bottle to avoid frustration.there are other information for this review, one is this reviewer did purchase it and the other is 10 people think this review is helpful.
