OUAI Travel Wave Spray
OUAI Travel Size Wave Spray - Texture Spray for Hair
Our editorial score, out of 10
“The only genuine styling product in this list, and the one worth trying in travel size first.”
At a glance
Our verdict
Not a fragrance mist — this is a genuine texturising spray that creates soft, beachy waves without the crunchy, sticky finish of cheaper salt sprays. It also happens to carry OUAI's signature scent, which is why it lands in the same basket as the mists. The travel size is the sensible way to test whether it suits your hair type. Best applied to damp hair and scrunched, or on dry hair for second-day volume.
