Get Beach Hair From a Bottle!

Upon being told recently that my hair looked “windblown — in a good way,” I couldn’t help but laugh — the air conditioning in my office is strong, but not that strong. Thanks to a few key products, I’ve mastered the art of beach hair when the furthest I’ve gone is to the corner deli. Bumble & bumble Surf Spray, $24, is an old favorite — it imparts the feeling (and light smell) of saltwater in your hair. But I’ve recently discovered Frederic Fekkai Summer Hair Beach Waves spray, $20, which gives soft texture and a whiff of old-fashioned sunblock to my natural waves. If sprays aren’t for you, check out Kusco-Murphy Beach Hair, $29, which even has bits of crushed bamboo in it! If only faking the perfect beach body was as easy. . . — Melissa Liebling-Goldberg

I just bought Frederic Fekkai’s product that’s featured here and it’s mediocer. Just know that it works with your natural waves, so if you have naturally straight hair, as I do it doesn’t do much. I used it while my hair was dry and it gave me more of a “sex hair” look than the wavy “beach hair” that I was expecting. Maybe it’ll be different if I try it on my hair when it’s damp….

I don’t think i could get the whole “beach hair” look since, sadly, my hair is straight with no wave whatsoever.

I just bought this and it’s pretty good. I have naturally curly hair and I sprayed it on my damp hair this morning and no frizz at all. The smell is great also, just like suntan lotion. It’s a bit pricey but for those who live with humid weather, it’s worth the investment.
