Heat Protector

What is heat protection?

Heat protection is a specialised hair product that creates a protective layer around the hair. It helps reduce damage caused by heat from hair dryers, flat irons and curling wands. A good heat protectant helps the hair retain moisture and keeps your strands stronger and healthier during styling.

Why do you need heat protection?

Heat can damage the outer layer of the hair which can make it feel dry and lead to breakage. By using heat protection you reduce the chance that high temperatures penetrate the hair fibre directly. The result is smoother hair with less frizz and a lower risk of damage from frequent styling.

Is heat protection suitable for all hair types?

Heat protection is suitable for every hair type. Fine hair usually benefits from a lightweight spray that does not weigh it down, while thick or curly hair often needs a more nourishing formula. Whether your hair is straight, wavy or tightly curled, a heat protectant is an essential step in a healthy hair care routine.

When should you apply heat protection?

You should apply heat protection before using any heat styling tool. It can be applied to towel dried hair before blow drying and it can also be used on dry hair before straightening or curling. Make sure to distribute the product evenly so each strand is properly protected.
