Ahhh. Days at the beach. It’s a perfect day – the crisp air, light breeze, warm sun – oh, and most importantly, your hair looks fantastic. If you have ever liked the “beachy waves” look of your hair after a quick dip in the ocean – you’re in luck! There are many different sea salt sprays available so you can look like you’re coming straight from the beach, no matter where you are.
So what are sea salt sprays? What are they made out of? Are there any downsides? How long do they last, and what do they cost? We answer all of your burning questions about this handy styling product.
It’s not seawater. But it does contain salt and other minerals like magnesium or potassium. There’s also, usually, a fragrance associated with it.
These sprays are designed to mimic the way your hair looks after getting out of the ocean. Since seawater contains a high amount of salt, so does sea salt spray. The reason your hair gets curly after getting out of the ocean or using sea salt spray is that the salt pulls moisture out of the hair. The result is that the hair strands begin to lift – just enough to reveal a slightly curly pattern.
It will stay put until you wash it out. To rephrase: the minerals will stay on your hair until you wash it out. However, the style will likely not stay put for more than a day without the use of a standard hairspray.

Everyone could benefit from sea salt spray if they are looking to style their hair in beachy curls. However, people with oily hair can especially benefit from sea salt spray, as the minerals may soak up some of the oil.
It depends on the brand and the amount of spray you buy. The range is generally $6 to $50.
Too much sea salt spray (or exposure to seawater) can dehydrate or damage your hair. You can combat dehydrated hair with a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner.
Overall, sea salt spray is a safe and stylish choice for your hair!
