An extra-firm, fast-drying, anti-frizz hairspray that provides 24-hour anti-frizz and humidity resistance.
To recreate, you’ll want to start by working Pureology Style + Protect Weightless Volume Mousse through strands for added volume. Once you’ve perfected your half-up half-down hack, add hold with Matrix Vavoom Freezing Spray.
Sauna Hair
You’ve probably heard of the wet look—well, Sauna Hair is its healthier, multi-tasking sister. Let us explain: Sauna hair is similar to the Wet Look in that it gives off that I-just-emerged-from-the-pool appearance but lets hair oils, hair masks, and leave-in conditioners do the styling work so you can self-care and look stylish on the move. It’s perfect as the temps warm up, too since the heat mixed with these haircare products will penetrate strands deeper, hence the name.
Essence Absolue Nourishing Protective Hair Oil
A moisturizing hair oil that adds shine and softness.
Shania, aka @shaniachristinad on TikTok, uses Shu Uemura Hair of the Art Essence Absolue Nourishing Protective Hair Oil to style her Sauna Hair as shown here. Essence Absolu Oil is made with camellia oil and provides all-day UV protection so your hair will not only look good but also feel good for days to come, even after wash day.
Snake Braids
Snake braids are blowing up on TikTok right now, so of course, they made our list! Don’t worry, they look more complicated than they actually are. However, influencer Audrey aka @audreytrullinger, on TikTok can show you how snake braids are done better than we can explain. See how she incorporates snake braids into a cute claw clip style here.
Vavoom Freezing Spray Extra Hold
An extra-firm, fast-drying, anti-frizz hairspray that provides 24-hour anti-frizz and humidity resistance.
Artful Edges Edge Gel
Lay, tame, sculpt & create with our hairline control balm. Perfect for creating artistic details around the hairline and keeping sleek styles in place, with love.
She starts off by using Matrix Vavoom Freezing Spray Extra Hold for a bit of grit and holding power while she crafts her mini snake braids and then uses Mizani Artful Edges Edge Gel to smooth flyaways down.
Mermaidcore Hair
Mermaid waves are back! But 2023’s mermaid waves have a more undone, effortless feel and are not concerned about perfection. Influencer Seerat Sain, aka @seeratsaini_ on TikTok, shows us here how to achieve this with a few of her favorite products.
Style + Protect Weightless Volume Mousse for Color-Treated Hair
Conditioning mousse provides weightless volume, heat protection, and shine.
Tecni.Art Next Day Hair Dry Finishing Spray
A dry texturizing spray that creates a weightless, tousled, second-day, disheveled look on all hair types.
Pureology Style + Protect Weightless Volume Mousse is her go-to when crafting the waves. Work into strands section by section and follow up a three-prong waver. Once she has a head full of waves, she sprays in L’Oréal Professional Tecni.Art Next Day Hair Dry Finishing Spray to lock in her look.
Zig-Zag Parts
Anyone around for the Y2K era knows this is an oldie but goodie. While we’ve been debating middle parts vs. side parts, the zig-zag part crept back in to steal our hearts. This playful part screams spring and can be incorporated into all kinds of hairstyles for festivals, prom, and more.
Spray Smooth Anti Frizz Hair Spray
Instant smoothing and de-frizzing spray for smooth hair with silky finish and heat protection
Pro stylist Barbra Simovic showed us how to get the look quick and easy that’s taking over TikTok! All you’ll really need is a comb with a pointed tail and the ability to perfect a zigzag motion. Before styling, we suggest you use Redken Spray Smooth Anti Frizz Hairspray on dry or wet hair to keep the attention on your fun part rather than your frizzies.
