Get effortless texture with sugar spray
What's the story
Sugar spray is becoming the go-to product for achieving texture and hold in hairstyles without the weight of conventional hair gels and mousses.
Unlike salt sprays, which can cause dryness, sugar sprays are a milder option, delivering a light, touchable hold.
They work well on all hair types, amplifying natural waves or adding some oomph to fine, limp hair.
Selection
Choosing the right sugar spray
Choosing the right sugar spray depends on your hair type and what you want to achieve.
For fine hair, search for lightweight formulas that offer volume without weighing you down.
If you have thicker hair, go for something with a stronger hold.
Plus, look for ingredients like oils or vitamins that can nourish your hair and prevent it from getting too dry.
Application
Application techniques for optimal results
For best results, apply sugar spray to damp (not wet) hair.
To create beachy waves, scrunch your hair while letting it dry naturally or use a diffuser attachment on your blow dryer.
To boost volume at the roots, flip your head upside down during the drying process.
Remember, less is more with this product. Start with a few spritzes and add more if needed.
Styling
Styling tips with Sugar Spray
Sugar spray isn't just for hold; it's also a secret weapon for styling.
For loose waves, twist sections of your hair after spritzing with sugar spray. Let them air dry or use a low heat setting on your dryer for a beachy look.
For a textured updo, mist sugar spray throughout your tresses before styling. It adds grip and hold, making your updo last all day (or night).
Maintenance
Maintaining your style throughout the day
To ensure your hairstyle remains vibrant throughout the day, keep a travel-sized sugar spray bottle handy in your purse for instant fixes.
Spot any sections going flat or losing their oomph? Just give them a light spritz of sugar spray, scrunch or tousle with your fingers, or even tease a bit at the roots if needed.
