Homemade Sea Salt Hair Spray

Sharing a recipe for homemade sea salt hair spray you can make on the cheap (with better ingredients) and also add as a little gift or stocking stuffer.

Hi friends! How’s the week going so far? I hope you are having a great summer si far!

For today’s post, I wanted to share a super fun and easy beauty DIY: sea salt hair spray! You guys may be familiar with sea salt spray, as it’s a great way to add beachy waves and texture to your hair. It can be used on wet or dry hair, and makes you feel like you spent the day at the beach. Store-bought sea salt sprays can cost a fortune (around $40 per bottle), so making your own is an easy way to save some money. Also, you can customize the ingredients according to your hair type and preference!

Today, I’m sharing a DIY sea salt spray recipe you can do at home. Pin this for the next time you’re looking for a quick and easy hair DIY.

Homemade Sea Salt Hair Spray

What Does Sea Salt Hair Spray Do For Hair?

My #1 fave use for sea salt spray is to create natural waves and add beachy texture. It also helps absorb excess oil. It enhances waves and curls and creates volume if your hair is feeling a little blah or like it needs a boost. You can also add some nourishing components, like argan oil and coconut oil for hair health.

What you will need:

1 tablespoon sea salt (Redmond’s real salt is my fave), or Epsom salt in a pinch

2 teaspoons argan oil (you can also use coconut oil or any of your favorite natural oils)

10 oz hot or warm water

Optional: 4-6 drops essential oil. I used lavender but you can also use any hair-friendly oils, like rosemary, rose absolute, lemon, or tea tree. I order all of our essential oils from Thrive Market and also love NOW Foods (you can use FITNESSISTA for 20% off).

How To Make Your Own Sea Salt Spray

Step 1

Add the sea salt to a bowl and pour the hot water on top. Whisk to fully dissolve the sea salt.

Step 2

Add in the argan oil and essential oil, and continue to whisk until completely dissolved.

Step 3

Use a measuring cup to carefully pour the mixture into your glass spray bottle.

Step 4

Give it a good shake and add a few sprays to dry or slightly damp hair as you *scrunch* for some extra texture and volume. Store in a cabinet for up to 3 months.

How To Use Sea Salt Hair Spray

You can use sea salt spray on wet, damp, or dry hair. I prefer to use it on dry hair that hasn’t been washed in a couple of days for extra volume and life. If you use it on wet hair, do not blow dry afterwards; just scrunch and let it air dry. The brilliant thing about this is that you don’t need any extra tools, and it’s pretty foolproof. Just spritz, scrunch, and enjoy. If you add essential oil, it can also give a little bit of gorgeous natural fragrance.

Does Sea Salt Spray Damage Hair?

Like anything, I think that moderation is extremely important. Sprays that contain salt can be a bit drying, so I would only use it 2-3 times per week. The good news about this spray is that the argan oil can help nourish and moisturize the hair, so it’s not quite as drying.

Some tips to prevent damage:

– Take it easy with the heating tools and your hair. Don’t overuse blowdryers/straighteners/curling wands, etc.

– Add a teaspoon of aloe vera gel to lock in moisture

– Use a heat protectant when you’re using heating tools, like this one.

– Don’t over-wash your hair. Shampoo can also be very drying, as it strips the hair of hydrating oil. I only wash my hair around 2x per week and rarely blow dry it. My hair care tips are in this post!

All in all, this is a super easy hack that you can make at home on the cheap. Please report back if you give it a try! If you don’t have time to make this anytime soon, pin this post for a rainy day.

So, tell me, friends: have you ever used sea salt spray? What’s your #1 hair must-have? This is mine; I can’t live without it.
