This stuff smells amazing. I have fine and mostly straight hair and don't use this all the time, but do regularly use it (mainly on my roots) for some extra volume and hold. I use it on dry or slightly damp (blow-dried) hair and it can feel a bit sticky or make my hair stick together a bit in some spots, but brushing it out with a wide-tooth comb or running my fingers through help. I have yet to use this on damp/wet hair to actually try and create a wavy hairstyle, I'm not convinced it'll work for me, but seeing all these other reviews I'm willing to give it a try.

The smell of this spray is amazing and it does the job. It keeps my waves in place but it's not sticky at all! I love Ouai products, I think they have really nice hair products.

Smells amazing and doesn’t leave that horrible feel to your hair. Waves stayed perfect for 2 days.

Glad I only ordered the mini - seems fine as a wave spray, but the scent is overpoweringly floral and made me feel queasy.

Can't understand that none of the reviews have picked up that the smell is so overpoweringly strong and unnatural - you could not wear perfume with this for example. I did not get to whether or not it provided natural beachy waves as I nearly choked!

I really wanted to like this product. From the reviews, it sounded perfect for my thin/somewhat wavy hair. I found it to be extremely sticky and drying. To be honest, looking at the hair, it wasn’t bad. I had some added movement and volume. Once you touched it though, ugh... The only good thing is the smell. I tried using it several times but every time I tried, I would find myself combing my hair at the end of the day or after a few hours to get the product off. I think from now I'll be using it as a texture spray on my third day curled hair.

I love it because it is not sticky like other salt sprays

After I finished Volume Spray I decided to finally try this and I like this WAY better, I find it actually gives me more volume with less effort (also, Volume Spray kind of made my hair greasy faster, this doesn't do that), as well as texture and some light hold for my straight, fine hair. Been using it since October, still have a bit left, I'll definitely repurchase.
