I Create Waves

The Innersense I Create Waves salt spray adds more texture, volume, and relaxed beach waves to your hair. Mineral-rich salt gives straight to wavy hair grip and natural movement, while glycerin helps maintain softness. The lightweight formula enhances natural waves, refreshes your hair’s texture between washes, and creates a naturally matte, slightly tousled finish—like after a day at the beach.

Salt sprays give hair the rough, grippy texture that is so characteristic of natural beach waves. The mineral-rich salt in I Create Waves helps shape the hair and makes even straight hair look livelier and fuller. Unlike a strong curl gel, the spray does not set strands into tightly defined clumps. The result stays loose and flexible, with an intentionally slightly undone look.

The formula combines this texturizing effect with glycerin and gluconolactone, which bind moisture and help keep hair feeling soft. Angelica root extract, along with calendula, chamomile, and linden blossom, complements the botanical care. The spray is especially practical for reviving your waves on day two or adding more texture to straight hair before styling.

Key ingredients

• Mineral-rich salt: Sodium Chloride creates a grippy hair texture and a natural beach-wave effect. It gives straight and wavy hair more body, enhances natural movement, and helps create a matte, textured finish. Unlike a traditional hairspray, it does not create a stiff styling film, but a loose, slightly tousled texture.
• Angelica root extract: Extract from the root of angelica (Angelica Archangelica) is a key botanical ingredient in the spray. It complements the formula with plant-based conditioning ingredients and helps keep the scalp feeling comfortable. Innersense highlights its soothing and revitalizing properties for the scalp and hair roots.
• Glycerin and gluconolactone: Glycerin binds moisture and helps keep hair soft despite the texturizing salt. Gluconolactone also supports moisture balance and complements the water-based formula. Together, these ingredients help prevent hair from feeling unnecessarily rough or dry.
• Calendula and chamomile: Calendula and chamomile extracts contain botanical conditioning ingredients valued for their skin-care properties. They complement the spray’s scalp and hair care and help support a balanced formula. Chamomile also contributes to its naturally pleasant, aromatic scent.
• Linden blossom and essential oils: Linden blossom extract complements the botanical care with plant-based ingredients. Essential oils of orange, eucalyptus, and ginger give the spray a fresh, aromatic scent. This combination pairs easy styling with a pleasant application experience.

How to use

• Spray I Create Waves salt spray evenly onto damp or dry hair. For an especially natural look, focus on the mid-lengths and ends.
• For beach waves: Gently scrunch the hair from the ends toward the roots to shape loose waves and enhance natural movement.
• For more volume: Lift individual sections of hair and apply the spray where you want more grip and body.
• To refresh: Spray onto dry waves or curls as needed, then scrunch back into shape with your hands.
• Let your hair air-dry or style with a diffuser or blow dryer.
• If your hair is very dry, start with a small amount and add a lightweight leave-in conditioner if needed.

FAQ

What hair types is I Create Waves suitable for?
This salt spray is especially suitable for straight to wavy hair that needs more texture, volume, and natural movement. It can also refresh existing curls. If your hair is very dry or highly textured, use a small amount, as salt gives the hair’s surface more grip.

Can I style straight hair into waves with the salt spray?
Yes. I Create Waves gives straight hair more grip and helps shape loose waves. Spray it onto damp hair and gently scrunch the lengths. It works especially well on hair that already has a slight natural wave. For more pronounced waves, you can also style very straight hair in a braid or use a suitable styling tool.

Does the salt spray dry out hair?
Salt adds grip and can make hair feel drier if used frequently or generously. That’s why the formula also contains moisture-binding glycerin and gluconolactone. If your hair is very dry, use the spray sparingly and condition the lengths with a leave-in conditioner as well.

Can I use I Create Waves on dry hair?
Yes. The spray can be used on damp or dry hair. On damp hair, you can create new beach waves. On dry hair, it’s especially useful for refreshing existing waves and adding grip and texture back to the lengths.

What is the difference between I Create Waves and I Create Lift?
I Create Waves is a salt spray that creates grip, texture, and a naturally matte beach-wave finish. I Create Lift is a lightweight styling foam for root volume, fullness, and flexible hold. If you want a relaxed beach look, I Create Waves is the better choice. I Create Lift is better for adding body at the roots without a salty texture.

Is I Create Waves vegan and suitable for the Curly Girl Method?
Yes. The current formula contains no apparent animal-derived ingredients, silicones, or drying alcohols. This makes I Create Waves vegan and suitable for the Curly Girl Method and curly hair care. If your curls are dry, use the salt spray sparingly and combine it with a moisturizing product if needed.
