How To Use Sea Salt Serum Spray
Salt sprays evoke visions of windswept, beachy waves—naturally flowing, voluminous, yet without the frizz. The experience of using them doesn't always match this idyllic picture; instead of luxurious locks, some end up with ends as dry as straw and roots so crispy, teasing fingers through them becomes a feat and stokes fear of hair breakage.
What is Sea Salt Spray?
Sea salt spray is a hair styling product that aims to mimic the effect of spending a day at the beach, capturing that distinctive texture and look your hair develops after being in the ocean. It's designed to give your hair a tousled, casual appearance that suggests natural waves and volume, similar to the effects of saltwater on your hair.
How Does Sea Salt Spray Work?
When the salt in the spray interacts with hair, it can absorb moisture, oils, and sebum from the hair strands. Sea salt is hygroscopic, meaning it attracts water molecules and can therefore help to enhance the natural curl pattern or wave of the hair. As the salt dries on the hair, it increases friction between the strands and can create a rougher texture, giving the appearance of more volume and a "beachy" look. By opening the hair's cuticle slightly, sea salt sprays can also make hair feel thicker while enhancing curls and waves, mimicking the natural effect of saltwater on hair. Giving you a natural textured vibe.
How Is Our Sea Salt Serum Different?
Different from any other on the market, our innovative twist on the classic sea salt spray is transformed into a luxurious serum formula that hydrates while adding everything you love about the beach, without the crispiness. This product is designed to deliver that authentic, effortlessly tousled look of beachy hair that you've always desired. Sea Salt Serum brings a wave of childhood nostalgia, the smell of sun lotion, chasing waves along the shore, and long hot days ahead of you.
Infused with a blend of nature's finest oils, including tamanu, jojoba, and argan, along with a selection of other botanical extracts, this serum is a game-changer for those seeking to maintain healthy, vibrant locks. These meticulously chosen components work in harmony to moisturize and shield your hair against the elements. By doing so, they provide a perfect counterbalance to the texturizing effect of the sea salt, ensuring that your hair remains nourished and resilient, without compromising on that desirable beachy aesthetic.

How To Use Sea Salt Serum
For Damp Hair
- Wash Your Hair: Start with clean hair for the best results. You can shampoo and condition your hair as usual.
- Towel Dry: After washing, gently towel-dry your hair to remove excess water. Your hair should be damp, but not soaking wet.
- Shake the Bottle: Before applying, shake the sea salt spray bottle well to ensure the ingredients are well mixed.
- Spray Evenly: Hold the bottle a few inches away from your hair and spray evenly throughout. Focus on the mid-lengths to the ends of your hair. If you have thick or long hair, section your hair and apply the spray section by section to ensure even coverage.
- Scrunch and Style: Use your hands to scrunch your hair, enhancing your natural texture and helping to create waves. For more defined waves, you can twist sections of your hair.
- Let It Dry: Allow your hair to air dry for a natural look, or use a diffuser attachment on your blow dryer for quicker results and more volume.
Pro Tip: To add a bit of volume and lift to you roots, spray directly onto the scalp from 2-3 inches away, when hair is a little more than damp, and continue as usual.
For Dry Hair
- Shake and Spray: As with damp hair, start by shaking the bottle well. Lightly mist your dry hair with the sea salt spray, focusing on areas where you desire more texture or volume. Avoid spraying directly at the root when dry.
- Style as Desired: You can again scrunch your hair, use styling tools, or simply tousle with your fingers to achieve your desired look.
- Finish: If needed, finish with a light spray of Dry Texturizing Spray for extra oomph.
How To Layer Sea Salt Serum
If you want a different, less textured feel, try cocktailing products to your specific hair needs. For hair that feels parched, prep your hair with the Anti-Breakage Detangling Spray before using sea salt spray. For more coarse wavy or coily curls, work some Ultimate Hair Cream through your ends before spraying your hair.
If you’re using Sea Salt Serum spray on a regular basis, be sure to use a moisturzing mask (particularly if you use hot tools or blow dry with heat) once every 1-2 weeks to deeply nourish and strengthen your hair.
