Meet Air Dry Spray with UV Protection
Air Dry Spray is a multipurpose air-dry texture mist designed to make your natural hair look great with minimal effort. Whether your hair is straight, wavy or curly, it enhances shape and movement while controlling frizz.
The formula is salt-free so it won’t leave hair dry or crunchy, and with added UV protection it helps shield strands from sun damage and colour fade.
Key benefits:
- Enhances natural texture for effortless beachy waves
- Reduces frizz and fly-aways without stiffness
- Works on both damp and dry hair
- Hydrates to lock in moisture
- Protects from UVB damage, dryness and colour fade
- Lightweight, non-sticky and salt-free finish
Why It Works
Air drying should feel freeing, not frustrating. But too often, traditional beach sprays leave hair dry, sticky or salty. We created Air Dry Spray to bring out the best in your natural texture – no heat, no crunch, no fuss.
Air Dry Spray combines lightweight texture-building ingredients with moisture-supporting botanicals to enhance natural shape while keeping hair soft and healthy.
Rather than relying on salt to create grit, its smart misting action adds definition and movement without drying out strands. The addition of UV filters helps protect hair from colour fading, dryness and weak spots caused by sun exposure, making this mist ideal for everyday styling or summer days out.
Developed from salon experience and tested on all hair types, Air Dry Spray brings out the best in your natural texture whether you’re scrunching damp hair or refreshing dry hair between washes.
“I really wanted big waves with minimal effort and the Air Dry Spray is the best product for that”
“Product does give you a lovely wave to your hair ideal for holidays just scrunch in and go”
"This has made a huge difference. Makes my mornings quick and easy"

UV Protection for your Hair
Whether you’re racing out the door, heading to the beach, or just giving your hair a break from heat – this spray delivers easy, undone polish that looks like effort – but isn’t.
Sunlight's Impact on Hair
Sunlight doesn’t just brighten your day, it actively impacts your hair. UV rays break down the proteins that give hair strength and moisture, and they can strip colour and vibrancy from both natural and colour-treated hair.
Built-in UV Protection
That’s why we’ve added built-in UV protection to Air Dry Spray, to help defend strands from fading, dryness and breakage caused by everyday sun exposure. This mist now creates an invisible shield as you air dry, helping to maintain the richness of your colour and the health of your hair even in bright conditions.
Lightweight Formula Benefits
Rather than weighing hair down or leaving a heavy finish, the lightweight formula works while it styles. You get the effortless, tousled texture you love plus an extra layer of protection against the oxidative stress UV rays can cause.
This makes Air Dry Spray an ideal everyday essential for anyone who wants to boost natural texture while keeping hair feeling soft, hydrated and resilient under the sun.
Great product for texture.
I have very straight, silky hair so this is great for giving some texture, it smells devine and doesn’t leave any weight or residue on my hair…. Certainly recommend this product!

How to use Air Dry Spray

Mist lightly to refresh texture, enhance movement and tame frizz between washes.
Pro Tip:
Add a little Almost Everything Cream at the roots before spraying to control frizz while enhancing body and definition.

A gamechanger!!
I read a review about this product and they raved about it, but I thought ah they rave about everything .... but then I tried it and can totally see why - its easy to spray, smells amazing and you do not need to do anything to get great looking hair.
My hair is not curly its wavy but can easily go frizzy, it feels great with this but usual products make it sticky and weighed down - this is my go to product from now on and I am enjoying being beach wavy rather than thinking I need to straighten - love it!
