Not worth the effort
I purchased Beach Chic to use when I pinned curled my hair and let it air dry in the summer. I have found this process works well with my curly, dry hair in the summer and gives my hair the much needed break from all the damage I put it through during the rest of the year. I had used a similar product last year that I liked but could not seem to find again this year. So I decided to give this a...read more try. I did not find this enjoyable to use. The first try proved to not do much to encourage curl in your hair. Rather it leaves it kinda flat and frizzy. I decided to try again and use the spray more generously. The following morning I awoke and it felt like (not sure if was actually) like there was salt all over my hair. I realize this is a somewhat strange complaint about sea salt spray, but I am talking about enough salt that I could shake my hair over some French fries and be ready to go. It was gross. And my hair was lifeless and frizzy to boot. I can achieve that look without product or the effort of setting it. I also found that after just the two uses that my hair had an incredible amount of buildup and needed some serious cleansing to get the remnants of the stuff out of my hair (what I didn’t use to season food with ). I did find the smell to be clean and fresh and not too coconutty, again I know its sea salt spray but I don’t enjoy the smell of coconut so I was hopeful when sniffing this spray thinking I had found my summer hair solution. But alas I am back to the drawing board.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Not a fan
I really enjoy salt sprays and like that they give my hair more volume. I have dry and frizzy hair, and when using this product it DID give my hair volume, but then it resulted in dry crunchy and damaged feeling hair, while also leaving my hair super tangled.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Good texture, but only if I use a lot
I have very thin, fine hair, so I am always trying to add texture. This can add enough texture for me to create waves with my straightener, but I have to use so much product. It is inexpensive, but I just don't like dispensing that much product into my hair. I prefer products where a little goes a long way. For thicker hair types, this may be the case, but for my thin hair, a little of this produc...read moret doesn't do much. On the Garnier website, a lot of people complained about the smell, but I acutally enjoy it. It smells like fig and kind of reminds me of the holidays. I will continue to use, but I am not sure I will re-purchase.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful
