No; water maintains a constant mass of 1 gram milliliter. If you add salt to the mix, it won't make the water heavier, although the combined weight of both salt and water put together will be greater than the water by itself. So no the water does not get heavier, your just adding more weight in the form of salt.

Salt water is usually denser and heavier than sugar water because salt particles are larger and disrupt the water molecules more than sugar molecules do. This causes salt water to have a greater mass per unit volume compared to sugar water.
