What is sea salt spray?

Obviously this stuff is concocted out of sea salt, AKA sodium chloride and usually the addition of conditioners and fragrances. The formulas are designed to hydrate, thicken and provide light hold to your hair. They are quite often used as a pre styler, laying the foundations and preparing the hair for more rigorous styling. As a stand alone product it used for light hold, texture and volume in all hair types.


Why is sea salt spray used? 

Sea salt spray is quite versatile and is primarily used to add volume and texture while taming, controlling and defining.

It is extremely appealing to men with fine or thinning hair as it provides a boost in volume to make hair appear fuller. It can be used to accentuate the natural waves and curls in the retrospective hair types and provides lift in long hair. This really is a multi purpose product and the conditioning properties help to protect hair while blow drying and shaping.

How is sea salt spray used?

The spray is spritzed onto damp hair and then worked through with the hands and fingers.

Usually a light spray is suffice as a pre styler and a more heavy application when being using as a stand alone. The sea salt spray is followed with a hair dryer to build up shape and volume or the job is already complete for natural movement in long hair. For building refined hairstyles that require more hold, follow the hair dryer with your favourite styling aid like, pomade, paste or clay. Finish with a fine mist of hair spray to lock down a style for all day hold.
