Travel size hairspray/mousse in Paris?

I've almost used up my larger hairspray and mousse during my long stay and just need small travel sizes for the rest of my time here. But I'm not seeing any small sizes in Monoprix, Pharmicie, etc. stores. Any suggestions where you've seen/bought these? Merci!

Just bite the bullet and buy the size available. You travelled from the U.S. To Paris with large size so what is the problem with going from Paris to home with the same? Besides you'll have nice Parisian hair products to use at home.

Yes, but are disposable razors available at Monoprix?

Not that this helps anyone currently in Europe, but our local Kroger grocery store has a section with travel sized toiletry products, including TSA-compliant hair mousse and hairspray.

I do need a haircut but don't think shaving my head is the answer! I bought the larger spray and mousse sizes here at the beginning of my 3 month stay and they've lasted ALMOST long enough. I'll just have to s-t-r-e-t-c-h them a few more days! Next trip, I'll bring the travel sizes with me, set them aside, buy the big ones to use here, and then I'll have the little ones to use at the end, if needed. If not needed, they'll take up much less room in the suitcase going home (leaving more room for La Carette macarons and Jacques Genin chocolates!).

If Casino doesn't work out, is there a nearby travel agent who might suggest a place with travel-sized hair products?

Sorry, don't know what to tell you. My Monoprix has travel-size hairspray. Maybe try in another neighborhood???
