Toni & Guy Sea Salt Spray || REVIEW


Toni&Guy Casual Sea Salt Texturising Spray 200ml - £7.19
For effortless, laid-back, lived-in styles, CASUAL products give texture and light hold. Creates texture and body for a lived-in, beach look.

I casually just picked this up because at boots, Toni & Guys' products were on offer for 3 for £12 which was an absolute steal considering the products themselves were quite pricey. Apart from the shampoo and conditioner that i picked up, i thought i needed another sea salt spray! I have already used the Umberto Giannini one for quite a while now and only have a bit left (Reviewed here) and the smell of it always seems to bother me because it was too sweet and disliked it on my hair. This Tony & Guy spray had a nice fresh scent to it which was is nice considering i prefer fresh scents as opposed to sickly sweet. 

Using this product allowed me to effortlessly achieve the pretty beachy waves that i wanted and in my opinion, i think it works better than the Umberto Giannini one. A little goes a long way and i really enjoy using this in the mornings where i have little time to get ready and need to rush out the door. I simply spray all over my towel dried hair and scrunch it occasionally while i do my make up so that when it dries, it looks all texturised and wavey.

I adored this product so much that this post was going to feature in a 'product hype' post, but unfortunately there was one thing that let it down and it really does leave my heart broken. After a few uses, the nozzle decided to get partially blocked and instead of a spray, it squirted out a powerful stream of the product out. Despite this, i continued to use it although it did make my life a lot more difficult. Then after that, the nozzle decided to be fully blocked so i can't even get any product out of the bottle and i did even go to extreme measures by exchanging the nozzle for a different one that i took off from another spray product i had but it still got blocked after a few uses. I did research a little bit online and i found that this was a problem for a handful of people so i am really disappointed with the product design, as the product itself is really good. Such a shame! 

Have you tried any sea-salt sprays?

  7. Ahh, am glad I came across this post. I have poker straight hair and wanted beachy waves/texture in my hair and T&G sea salt spray seems to work well on your hair. I did sample the 'bumble & bumble' brand in boots and at £11 per bottle, it did absolutely nothing for my hair. Gutted! So next time im in T&G, I may just grab myself one of their sea salt sprays...Thx for the post.

    Anyways, feel free to pop by here:

  8. I'm always intrigued by these surf sprays, your hair does look really good in the photo! Such a let down about the nozzle though, very annoying! x

  9. That's such a nuisance about the nozzle! What a shame that it seems to be a design flaw in the product, especially since it works so well to give you those gorgeous beachy waves :)
