Default Drugstore Products for 2nd Day Hair?

Does anyone know of any good drugstore revitalizing sprays or something akin to that? I just need something that will help bring my curls back to life when I want to go for that 2nd day, but I don't want to spend a ton. Thanks!

Currently on the lookout for a low-priced revitalizing spray for 2nd day hair. Suggestions welcome and appreciated

I use Biotera Leave-In Conditioner in a spray bottle, diluted with water to refresh my curls. It is CG. I have never had much luck with curl boosting sprays, but I haven't tried any of them lately. Sometimes I rewet and add some Beyond the Zone Noodle Head Tame your Curls Mousse to get 2nd day hair. That really works well for me, and I have really thick hair, and it holds without it being crunchy or sticky. Both of those are at Sally's BTW.

I mix pretty much equal amounts of all of my current hair products (in my signature) in a small spray bottle, add water, then spray into my hair. Then I like to wet my hands and chunk by chunk re-wet my hair a little, and maybe do a quick cool-diffuse to bring them back to life. It pretty much works every time.

so, products that are drugstore/CG friendly: Herbal Essence Totally Twisted, LA Looks Sport Gel, Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition (or any other cheap condish)

I throw in some KCKT for tangles and whatever else I want. It's just a modge-podge mixture of gel, condish, and water.

I like L'oreal Out of Bed (LOOB) for second day hair. It's not a spray but it really works for me. I tried spray gels, refreshers and homemade sprays but always ended up with crunchy ends and frizzy canopy. I started a thread about it -- "lube the LOOB" in general hair discussion if interested in the technique.

LOOB for second day hair


Like BS/ACV rinses, limit protein/humectants.
