Who is this for?
BASED Sea Salt Spray is great for wavy, or straight hair that needs lightweight texture, volume, and a natural matte finish. It’s ideal for guys who want a laid-back, lived-in look without stiffness or shine.
Will it dry my hair out?
Will it dry my hair out?
Not with ours. Most sea salt sprays overload on drying alcohols and synthetic salt blends that overly dry your hair. BASED balances mineral-rich sea salt with aloe vera and glycerin to give you texture without drying your hair out.
Does it offer hold or just texture?

Why BASED over other sea salt sprays?
Why BASED over other sea salt sprays?
Most sprays use harsh alcohols and synthetic fragrance to fake the beach effect. Ours is made with real sea salt, naturally-derived scent, and balancing ingredients—so you get texture without making your hair look and feel worse over time.
Can I use it with other styling products?
Can I use it with other styling products?
Yes, BASED Sea Salt Spray works great by itself but we always encourage mixing & matching different product combos to see what works best for your hair. One popular combination is the BASED Beachy Flow Duo, which is a mix of BASED Sea Salt Spray and BASED Pomade.
