REF Ocean Mist N°303

Sea salt spray for matte, tousled beach waves

Ocean Mist N°303 from REF is a styling spray that builds workable, after-beach texture with a soft matte finish. Sea salt gives the grip for tousled waves, while quinoa extract and provitamin B5 keep the hair conditioned through styling.

Why Choose It?

• Tousled wave grip: Sea salt and magnesium salt roughen the strand just enough to hold a lived-in wave shape.
• Matte, not sticky: Light, water-based formula sets to a soft matte finish instead of a glossy or tacky hold.
• Conditioned through styling: Quinoa extract and provitamin B5 support the hair structure and bind moisture so texture stays soft.
• Workable on any hair type: Use on towel-dried hair for the strongest build, or on dry hair as a quick refresh.

Best For

Anyone after an effortless beach-wave look with a soft, matte hold — natural waves that need more shape, straight hair that needs texture and body, and second-day hair that needs a quick refresh.

Pair Ocean Mist with a matching REF shampoo wash routine to keep waves bouncy between styling days.

• Start with clean, towel-dried hair for the strongest wave build, or use on dry hair as a refresh.
• Shake the bottle to disperse the salts evenly.
• Mist through the mid-lengths and ends, avoiding the roots if you want to keep volume light.
• Scrunch the lengths with your hands to encourage the wave pattern.
• Air dry for a soft, lived-in finish, or diffuse on low heat to enhance the beach texture.

Tips

• Use as the last styling step on dry hair, after any serum or heat protectant, to lock in extra texture.
• For tighter waves, twist sections around your fingers while drying.
• A little goes a long way — start with a few mists and layer if you want more grip.
• If the matte finish feels too dry on the ends, follow up with a small amount of light leave-in conditioner.
