Sea salt spray...what is it...how to use it...and my top 5.
Sea salt spray is a type of product that I recommend so often because they are so versatile.
They add texture to your hair. They add body, so really make it look bigger. They add volume,
so really give it that height and also they can help to refresh hair. So hair that's maybe
greasy, slightly oily, it sort of mattifies that look. Now, sea salt sprays are available
absolutely everywhere across different budgets - the cheapest to something slightly more
premium. And in this video, I'm gonna tell you how to use a sea salt spray and then give
you a rundown of my top 5. Now if you're new to my channel, then hi. I'm Robin and this

Now, it couldn't be easier to use a sea salt spray. Use it as a pre-styler. Use it as a
styling product or use it as both. Now, I'd always say to apply your sea salt spray to
slightly damp hair. So you've towel dried it, spritz it straight through, root to tip,
then from here you've got 2 options. Let it dry naturally - this is perfect for guys with
slightly longer, thicker hair. You want that beachy lived in look. Or, you can do as I
do which is use it as a pre-styling spray into that damp hair. Use a hairdryer to build
in volume, start to direct it the way you want to style it, then finish with your styling
product. But you'll see here as I've done, it adds loads of this really great lived-in
look; super simple and super easy. Now one of the cheapest, but actually one
of the best is by Fudge Urban and it's their Rough Up Sea Salt spray. This is around about
the £6 mark. I will link all of them down below so we find the best prices so you can
check them out. But this one I would say is that quintessential sea salt spray. Loads
grip, loads of texture; it's got a slight crunch to it, but I think it really does deliver.
I'd say if you've got slightly longer hair, this could be the one for you. Now if you
want to keep it cheap, but you want something that's got that grip; you've got that texture,
you can build in the volume, but you don't want the crunch. You want something that maybe
could be used more as a pre-styler to add that volume. This one here is by Toni & Guy.
This is actually the cheapest of the 5 and I just think it really does deliver, especially
in how versatile it is. Now, looking at something that's actually not really a sea salt spray.
I've kind of cheated in this one, but I think it just works so well. Now, this is by Lush.
Loads of you guys will know Lush. This is called Big and really it does as it says on
the plastic tub. Use this in the shower. It's really a shampoo. Work it straight in. It
exfoliates your scalp and it also adds loads of this beachy texture. It's salty. It adds
lift. It adds volume straight into the hair and actually, I use this on days that I don't
shampoo and conditioner just to refresh the hair so it takes out some of that shine and
gives it loads and loads... I say loads and loads...seriously for days you have this huge,
huge volume to your hair. Now going back to more of those sort of traditional
sea salt sprays and we're going to the other end of the scale. So if you're a guy that's
got the cash or you want to invest in a really great, solid product. We're gonna look at
evo. Now, this is a brand that is spoken about quite a lot now on the channel now actually.
This is their Salty Dog Sea Salt Spray. Now, this brand creates products that are paraben
free, sulfate free, cruelty-free, vegan, all those ticking boxes things, but it's not just
about ticking boxes. They really do deliver. And I absolutely love this one because out
of all of these I'd say it's the most matte and in terms of ingredients, it's the...I'm
going to call this the cleanest. You know, it's not got all those chemicals, but it does
really deliver. But out of all these top 5, my absolute favourite and you've actually
seen this on Instagram if you follow me there; if not, come and follow, and this one is by
Sachajuan. Now this one is called Ocean Mist and it might be pricey but I honestly think
this one gives you the most natural look, the most natural feel. If you put your hands
through your hair, you don't have that crispy feeling, but you definitely have the volume
and the texture that we're all looking from a sea salt spray.
But guys, there are 5 products there across all different budgets, all doing slightly
different things so it's up to you to choose really what you are looking for from the product.
There's also more on ManForHimself.com. We've got more sea salt sprays, so again, loads
more choices. I will link that up there, also with my Instagram. So if you're not following
there's Instagram stories, Instagram TV - we're doing more of that - right up there. But thank
