DIY Sea Salt Spray | For Beachy Hair Waves




  • 4 tsp sea salt
  • 1 T hair gel
  • 8 oz  water
  • 1/2 tsp conditioner or serum
  • spray bottle - use an empty one, save your dollar, they add up I swear.  Plus you know that reducing and reusing is even better than recycling. 


I adapted this recipe from the girls blogging at Glamour.   For dry hair use less sea salt, if you hair tends to be oily this spray actually keeps it to a minimum a little longer because the salt is somewhat drying.  After I spray my damp hair with the beach wave spray I use the no heat wave method on a few sections of hair to give a few waves more definition.

  3. Love this idea!!! I hate buying sprays bc I have such fine hair and it seems to make my hair flat and oily, but I love how i can adjust the ingredients as needed.

    Thanks so much for this!

  5. Wow, this blows my mind! I can't wait to try this. Of course, the biggest challenge: finding an empty bottle.
