Nothing leaves a delicious sillage quite like a hair mist. A few sprays in a halo around your head and you’re destined to hypnotise all who walk in your path. While you can technically get the same effect with a regular perfume spritzed on your strands, they’re loaded with harsh chemicals, making them a drying option that can irritate your scalp. Better to opt for a hair mist, which works like a hair perfume (but without any of the negatives) to nourish and boost your mane with lock-loving ingredients. Here, we’ve rounded up our stand-out favourite hair mists to keep you smelling scrumptious all summer long.
CENTRED. UNWIND – DETANGLING HAIR PRIMER
The CENTRED. hair primer is the ultimate hair mist. Not only does a light spritz delicately scent hair throughout the day, but it primes locks for sun exposure (ideal for our desert climes), detangles, protects against heated tools and injects strands with shine and moisture via a nourishing cocktail of glycerin, panthenol and vitamin E. If you’re looking to streamline your hair care routine, this one’s for you.

FABLE & MANE HYDRATING HAIR OIL MIST
Known for delivering on hard-working hair heroes inspired by ancient Indian hair care rituals, Fable & Mane’s arsenal is lauded for encouraging healthy hair growth. This fine, cloud-like mist shrouds hair in the smell of nectar from champaca flowers, which Fable & Mane coins “the evocative fragrance of Madurai”. Also offering UV protection, this elixir features vitamin C-rich red hibiscus flower to add dazzling shine, as well as the iconic Indian gooseberry (or “amla”), to promote hair health and prevent dryness. Though an oil-based formula, it won’t weigh down your hair and is even suitable for oily hair types.

Capturing the hearts (and hair) of millennials and Gen Z alike, this aesthetically pleasing brand calls upon the power of sustainably sourced honey. Spritz the perfume on your strands for endlessly glossy, hydrated hair that smells like its signature scent inspired by flowers from the Mirsalehi bee garden.

BLAB’HAIR Miracle Hair and Body Mist
The ultimate French-cool hair care brand, Blab’hair burst onto the scene with just two hard-working formulas – a mist and an oil – to keep hair in tip-top condition. Founder Noa Souffir Tordjman spent her entire adolescence attempting to “tame” her curls to conform to Western beauty ideals, which led to damaged locks. So, she created her own products. This mist claims to be the first of its kind to be concocted with 100% natural ingredients, drenching strands in a delicate orange blossom scent while hydrating and nourishing. With a 12-hour staying time and chic, recycled packaging, you need one of these on your bathroom shelf, stat. The only problem? Blab’hair doesn’t ship to the Middle East just yet. We’re crossing our fingers and toes while we shop and ship…
