I have a friend who used to rave about Kevin Murphy Hair.Resort. This is a shimmery gel that’s meant to give you beachy waves, and the story is that Kevin was working on a photoshoot where he needed to create some beach hair. He mixed together gel, styling cream, and eyeshadow to give hair a lived in, shimmery look.
That’s how Hair.Resort was born. It is a shimmery gel that really works to define hair and add a bit of crunch to it. It’s best used on damp hair that’s almost dry – you can then diffuse your hair or airdry it so that waves are defined but not frizzy.
I found that this added more crunch to my hair than I like, so I’m not reaching for it a lot. I think there are other beach products on the market that don’t give crunchy hair, and this feels a little old-school to me.
Available in salons.
