Reviews

Wonderful product

"I use the shampoo, leave in conditioner, dry shampoo, body wash, hand soap, deep hair conditioner. I love it all & now my sister uses the shampoo & conditioner."

— Jo L. (5/5)

Spritzer doesn’t work

"I would probably like this product, but the sprayer does not work. I have to pour it into my palms then scrunch through my hair. That makes it very difficult to use and defeats the purpose of having a spray-in product. Maybe I got a defective package. Regardless, I will not buy again unless I can be assured that this problem is resolved."

— Teresa (3/5)

Wave Spray

"Love this stuff. It smells nice and gives my waves nice definition. Perfect for air drying days"

— Donna S. (5/5)

Definitely beachy

"I have used it only on damp hair straight out of the shower. It does give me waves, but I definitely notice my hair is super greasy the next day at the roots. I still dig it, just something to be aware of if you have super greasy hair. Be prepared to wash everyday."

— Loulou M. (4/5)

Fine Hair Enhancer

"So many ways I use this product: adding body to the roots of my washed hair and adding texture to a dry hair pony, and spritzing wherever I want definition to my otherwise floppy fine hair."

— Lee C. (5/5)

Ok product

"Hold waves not sticky or crunchy"

— Amber L. (4/5)

Great for texturizing

"This is the second review I leave in a week. My first review is titled "Not really a wave spray". And it's true, when I applied the wave spray all over my fine, dense, wavy hair it was too much. But then, I started using it more deliberately for focused texturizing and refreshing the ends, and it works like a charm. I 'll keep buying."

— Helen (5/5)

Not really a wave spray

"It's more of a texturizing spray in a liquid form. I used to use the old version and came back to it because I missed the salt-free wave enhancement. The new version is nothing like that. I use it after the ouai air dry foam, and it makes my clean hair tacky, coated, and heavy. For reference, I have fine, dense, wavy hair in a bob. Giving it 2 star because it worked relatively well for a couple of weeks and then it just made my hair heavy, so it might work better for thicker hair types."

— Helen (2/5)

Beach waves rock

"Takes my hair to a new level with a few spritz’s of the wave spray!"

— Patricia l. (5/5)

"Love it!"

— Jessica (5/5)

Is it safe for color-treated hair?
Thank you for reaching out to our OUAI team!
