We've Got Answers

What Does Sea Salt Spray Do?

Sea salt spray is basically the beach in a bottle. It boosts your natural texture, adds volume, and gives you that effortlessly tousled, beach-day look. Think soft, piecey waves with just the right amount of grit. But here’s the catch: salt can be a little drying, so make sure to pair it with some hydrating products to keep your hair feeling soft, strong, and ready for whatever comes your way.

How Do You Improve Hair Texture?

Great texture starts with great care. Keep your hair hydrated (that means good products and plenty of water), go easy on the hot tools, and give your strands some TLC with nutrient-rich oils and treatments. It’s all about consistency. Stick to a solid routine, and over time you’ll notice smoother, stronger strands that feel as good as they look. Healthy hair, happy life.

What Do Texturizing Hair Products Do?

Texturizing products are the MVPs of styling. They add grip, volume, and hold, giving your hair that effortlessly undone “I woke up like this” energy. Whether you’re looking for a boost for your braids or waves that actually stay put, these products give you all the texture without weighing your hair down.

A classic product

"I’ve tried so many sea salt sprays but i often come back to this one mainly for the smell, i love Sunbum’s banana candy smell tbh! The product itself works well on damp hair i have tried it on dry hair too but it works best after a shower or bath when hair isnt fully dry yet. Either scrunch it and let it air dry or put in a heatless curler and youre good to go!"

Q&A

I bought this to use with your surf paste, should I use the sea spray before or after?
Hi Riley, thanks so much for reaching out! You can use them interchangeably. The surf paste could be a sweet base, and then you can use the sea spray for a finish, or you can use the spray for a textured base, and the paste for a solid finish. Whatever works for you :) xo, SB
I have this spray along with the heat protectant spray and the scalp and hair mist (sunscreen). What order should I be using them in?
Hi Liz, thanks so much for reaching out! You can use them in whichever order you prefer. The Heat Protector Spray will work best before using heat styling tools, and our SPF Scalp Spray works best before going out in the sun. :) If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out to us on our contact page. xo, SB
Does it work as a heat protectant if so up to how many degrees
Hi Charlotte, thanks so much for reaching out! This product is not intended to be used as a heat protectant, but we do have a Sun Bum Heat Protector Spray that is made to protect your hair at up to 405 degrees. You can find that product here: https://www.sunbum.com/products/heat-protector-6oz If you have any further questions on how to proceed, feel free to reach out to us on our website’s contact page :) With love, Sun Bum
I have thick hair that is slightly wavy and likes to be a little frizzy. Can this help give my waves a more defined shape and help my frizz?
Hi Tilly, thanks so much for reaching out! Our Sea Spray definitely works to enhance your waves. If you are looking to add shape to your curls while controlling your frizz, we would recommend checking out our Curls Mousse or our Curls Styling Cream ) xo, SB
For how long with the effect of textured hair stay on my hair after spraying
Hi Elan, thanks so much for reaching out! Our Sea Spray has a lasting effect and can be applied as frequently as desired. Spray throughout hair (focus more on strands and less on roots.) Lift hair to target those layers beneath and dial in a piecey beach look. If you have any additional questions, feel free to reach out to us on our contact page and we will be happy to help :) xo, SB
