Just like the skin, hair can have an odour too. There is oil present in the hair which picks up the lingering scent in the air and traps it, which makes our hair smell like our surroundings, such as barbecue whenever we leave a barbecue restaurant. Even though smoke from food can smell nice, it isn’t the best scent to carry around, especially not in your hair.
Worry not as beauty brands have long discovered a product to make your hair smell as if you just got out from the shower. Hair mists are essentially perfume for the hair. With just a few sprays, your mane will smell fresh and you’ll be ready to continue the day without worrying about hair odour.
Read on for a list of the best hair mist in Malaysia to get your eyes on.

How to use or wear hair mist?
A hair mist is essentially used as hair perfume which leaves your hair smelling good throughout the day without weighing it down.
Most people tend to reach for hair mists on second-day hair when hair washing isn’t an option. Because of this, the beauty of hair mist is that it keeps your hair looking and smelling just as fresh. Some hair mists also contain special ingredients to give your hair and scalp the treatment that it needs.
- Depending on the situation, some require just a spritz all over the hair to hydrate and moisturise dry tresses. This is also similar to those formulae that revitalise damaged hair or deliver keratin for frizzy hair.
- The other popular type of hair mist is a 2-in-1 product whereby this mist type can calm and nourish irritated scalps. So spray them onto your scalp and massage gently.
- Another popular use of hair mists is as a styling agent where it gives structure to hair, adds volume and maintains curls. You would usually style and manipulate your hair before you spray the mist to achieve your desired look.
