Best of Cleveland 2016: Sea Salt Spray

Just because it’s fall and we live in Cleveland doesn’t mean beach vibes aren’t available year-round. Bello/a Botanicals’ sea salt spray ($10 for 2 ounces, $18 for 4 ounces) makes it possible to have big beach-inspired wavy hair on even the dreariest-of-weather days. Handmade by Lakewood artisan Ashley Gooding, the spray uses natural ingredients such as homegrown aloe vera, lemon and lavender essential oils, and pink Himalayan salt. Inspired by her straight, unlively hair, Gooding wanted a product with health benefits that could give her a natural bounce. Like flip-flops to the sand, she arrived at sea salt spray. “It’s a great natural remedy for people who don’t have time to do their hair,” says Gooding. She suggests applying the spray to damp hair and allowing it to air-dry. “It gets in your roots better and gives you more volume.” The spray is best for oily hair, but can work for all types. “It’s really cool to bottle up that natural tousled look that women want,” she says. belloabotanicals.com
