When the sun snaps moisture from hair and humidity imparts frizz, frying your ‘do under the dryer is the last thing you need. Instead, get a coveted day-at-the-beach look with this simple recipe — even if you're miles from the shore. The sea salt enhances and defines natural waves, while fragrant essential oil helps lock in moisture and softness. Just a few spritzes make hair look as if you've been frolicking in the ocean all afternoon.
Ingredients
2 teaspoons fine sea salt
1 cup warm water
4 to 5 drops essential oil (such as grapefruit)
Sea Salt Spray How-To
1. Mix ingredients in a reusable spray bottle. Shake well to dissolve salt. Spray on clean, well-conditioned damp hair.
2. Run your fingers through to distribute, twisting sections of hair into ropes to further define waves. Let dry naturally, then run fingers through again to create loose, irregular ringlets. For extra hold, reapply lightly on dry hair. (Shake well before each use.)
