How to Make Salt Hair Spray

You don't have to go the beach to get tousled hair.

Sea salt hair spray naturally adds volume and swirl to your hair, giving it the waves you get after a day at the beach. You can make your own salt hair spray easily and inexpensively.

Instructions

1. Fill a clean, new spray bottle with warm water. Use either distilled water or filtered tap water so you won't be adding an excess of one mineral over another to your salt hair spray, which can weigh hair down instead of giving it seaside bounce.

2. Add 5 tablespoons of sea salt. Most regular grocery stores now carry sea salt. Don't use regular table salt. You want the full spectrum of balanced minerals from the sea in your salt hair spray, and table salt contains additives that your hair doesn't need.

3. Shake and allow the salt to dissolve. Spray the salt hair spray throughout damp or dry hair and let it dry naturally, or dry it with a diffuser. Shake the bottle again before each use.
