I find that fixative works the best for charcoal pieces, but some hairsprays contain the same ingredients as fixatives and can be substituted as an acrylic coating. You should keep note that some hairsprays have oils and can damage your picture, and that hairsprays do contain water and will cause paper to curl.

What are the differences between a workable fixative and a final fixative, and how do they each contribute to the preservation of artwork?
A workable fixative is used during the creation process of artwork to protect layers of media from smudging or blending. It allows for additional layers to be added on top. A final fixative is applied once the artwork is complete to permanently seal and protect the finished piece from damage over time. Workable fixatives help preserve the artwork during creation, while final fixatives ensure long-term preservation.
Why is charcoal a limited drawing medium?
Charcoal is: monochromatic - you are have color value, but are limited to one color. thick - the drawing material does not hold a point well, so you are limited to broader strokes and less detail. messy - there is a large amount of "dust" which results in dirty hands, smudges on the surfaces around the work and on the finished piece. indelible - this is one medium you should not make a mistake with as it is virtually impossible to erase. impermanent - even if you use a spray fixative, charcoal drawings do not usually survive long periods of time. As a medium for gestural sketches, planning and layout work, studies and practice, and life drawings charcoal is adequate to the task, but would not be my first choice.
