Using salt spray on curly hair is simple: spray it on, focusing on the strands you want to define, scrunch those strands, and optionally, use a turban to help set the curls.
Here's a breakdown of how to effectively use salt spray on curly hair:
- Spritz Strategically: You don't need to saturate all of your hair. Focus on sections, especially the front strands, for a quick and easy application, perfect for lazy days or when you want to enhance specific areas.
- Scrunch It: After spraying, scrunch your hair upwards from the ends to encourage curl formation. This helps activate the salt spray and define your natural curl pattern.
- Optional: Turban Time: After scrunching, you can wrap your hair in a turban or microfiber towel. This helps set the curls and reduces frizz. Leave it on for a few minutes, or longer if you have the time.
Salt spray adds texture and definition to curly hair, creating a beachy, tousled look. Remember to use it sparingly to avoid drying out your hair, and follow with a moisturizing product if needed.
