A sea salt spray for hair adds body and texture to all hair types, enhancing the natural wave. If you have thick, curly hair, this type of product can help define curls and reduce frizz.
If you have straight or limp hair, a salt spray can add volume and texture. Of course, sea salt sprays work beautifully on wavy hair.
Sea salt spray can be applied to damp or dry hair. The product actually works better on unwashed hair, as it can grip onto the hair cuticles more easily.
Plus, hair has more texture when it hasn't been washed.
If you're applying the sea salt hair spray to damp hair, your hair should be lightly towel-dried and then spritzed before blow-drying or air-drying for a super-beachy look.
If you're applying the sea salt hair spray to dry hair, do so as the last step of your haircare routine, after any serums and heat protectants.
How much sea salt spray you use depends on the length and texture of your hair. Sea salt can be quite heavy, so if you have fine hair, only use a small amount.
Apply sea salt spray to the lengths of your hair only if you've already dried your hair. You can be more generous and spritz the product all over if you're applying it to damp hair.
If you have wavy hair or natural curls, you can use more product and use it all over. However, sea salt generally works best on the lengths of your hair, where you'll see more natural texture.
