Beach Styled Hair - ALL YEAR LONG !

Styling products seem to get expensive, due to frequent use and small quantities of products. If you do have the extra funds to spend try some products like these:

Frederic Fekkai Marine Summer Hair 

5 fl oz for about $25 (SPLURGE)

 

 

 

 

Marc Anthony's Beach Spray

4.2 fl oz from $8.99 (SAVE)

 

 

 

 

There is also the HOMEMADE option , which is the least expensive option. You'll need:

  • A clean spray bottle. It's best if you have one in your house, or else, you can get a cheap one from a grocery store. Make sure it can hold at least 8 fl. oz. to 10 fl. oz. of distilled or filtered water.
  • 8 fl. oz. of distilled or filtered water.
  • Sea Salt (finely grounded sea salt available in the market works better and mixes well. It may cost you around $2.50). Use 1 teaspoon for each 8 fl. oz. of water.
  • A coconut essential oil. Use ½ teaspoon but you can use more if you have dry hair.
  • A dab of unscented hair gel , or else, scent of the gel will interfere with the scent of the conditioner. Also, don't mix the hair gel that is too thick or they won't mix well. Instead, use higher hold gel for stronger hold.
Mix the ingredients together and toss in your  hair slightly damp and either toss your hair up in a bun or in braids. Letting your hair dry is the healthy option for your hair. If you are in a rush, using a hairdryer with a diffuser attachment will work just as well. If throughout the day you feel the curls coming out you can spritz some of the spray in and re-scrunch or run a curling iron through your hair. ENJOY !!!!!-Cait

  1. I absolutely LOVE these products especially in the summer! I try not to use too much heat during that time of year so having these products to maintain style & texture is a MUST!
