Our story

Some people chase waves. We also chase the feeling of post-surf hair, so we engineered a way to bottle it. Founded in Canada’s Ocean Playground by a kiteboarding engineer, Salty Hair started with desire to solve a problem: how do you recreate the ocean’s effortlessly salty effect on days you’re stuck on land? The answer: real ocean water, meticulously filtered and concentrated, along with a blend of plant-based gels, all designed through engineering processes. The result: healthy hair with the authentic, windswept texture of a day at the beach… no board required.
