Slick Gorilla Sea Salt Spray for Men 200ml, Matte Texture Spray | Aloe vera, vitamin B5 and seaweed for beach texture, volume

Overview

Slick Gorilla Sea Salt Spray for Men 200ml, Matte is one of 50 hair care products on our shelf, compared on what buyers rated it, how many of them there were, and what it costs today. Here is how the maker describes it: Build beach texture with a lightweight sea salt spray that adds volume, separation and a matte finish for relaxed styles without a stiff or crunchy feel. Works as a men's hair texture spray for messy waves, root lift and casual shape, helping fine, flat or short hair look fuller and easier to style. That is the maker talking, not us, so read it as a claim rather than a finding. Buyers have it at 4.3 out of 5 from 4,088 ratings. We work out below what that is worth against everything else on the shelf.

How it compares on the hair care shelf

The typical hair care product on our shelf scores 4.5 out of 5, measured across 50 rated products. This one comes in at 4.3. That lands in the bottom quarter. Nothing alarming on its own, though at this money you can find better-rated neighbours, so there should be a particular reason for choosing it.

That score rests on 4,088 ratings. The median for this shelf is 4,347. That's enough for the score to mean something without being the last word on it.

On money, this sits in the top third of a shelf running from £1.98 to £56.00, with the midpoint around £7.13. Paying above the middle of the shelf needs a reason the star rating does not supply, because on ratings alone the extra money is not buying an advantage here.
