5 Reasons Why You’re Gonna Love Heat Protection Sprays
- First, you’ll love them for what they’re made for – super protection against heat. Not just a dryer but also the straightener, sunlight or dry air in heated rooms.
- Also, for a cool styling effect helping create a hairstyle which stays flawless all day.
- Say your hair is prone to tangling, then a thermal spray will help you keep it smooth and easy to comb out.
- You’ll also love it for the wonderful shine boost and bounce of your hair – it really makes the hair look much better!
- A good heat protectant spray not only conditions and protects but also nourishes and hydrates the hair, keeping it healthy.
List of my top heat protection sprays for hair
Nanoil Heat Protectant Spray
If you’re seeking the best heat protectant spray for your hair, then I guess you don’t need to read other reviews – unless you like variety and many different products in the bathroom. Back to Nanoil, it’s this year’s discovery! The best hair spray I’ve had so far, at a very good price, looks really elegant and smells like prestigious perfume. However, the key thing is the effect: this featherlight spray doesn’t overburden the hair or cause oiliness, smooths it, delivers glossiness and leaves it very soft. One more bonus? Nanoil Heat Protectant Spray is rich in silk, having a strengthening and beautifying effect. My beloved heat protectant! <3
Kevin Murphy Ever Smooth Spray
If you don’t mind being called a bit snobbish and aren’t scared by the steep prices, plus your hair is extremely unruly, tangled, frizzy and generally awful, then you can try taking control using Kevin Murphy Ever Smooth Spray. It’s specially made for taming frizz and protecting the hair during heat styling. Polymers envelope the hair with a microscopic layer to hold moisture and add smoothness.
Ouai Heat Protection Spray
The spray-on heat protectant from Ouai is meant for taming frizzy strands and preventing damage to hair. Too bad it has a steep price and is used up fast (the applicator sprays too much product). You’ll like it if you value hair conditioning over protection. The formula has many nutrient-rich ingredients: jojoba oil, castor oil, oak bark extract, Barbary fig extract, and more. Ouai Heat Protection Spray reduces the damaging effect of the UV rays on hair.
Bumble And Bumble Hairdresser’s Heat/Uv Protective Primer
Because of the small size and steep price, I didn’t buy it again, but it was great for summer holidays. I liked the strong tropical scent staying on the hair for long hours. As far as application goes, I suggest putting it in wet hair because it’s filled up with oils and may leave the hair greasy.
Davines Essential Haircare Melu Hair Shield
Sorry to say, Davines Essential Haircare Melu Hair Shield is another pricey option… Don’t break down just yet. It’s often cut-price and you can get it cheaper if you feel like searching. Is it worth it? I think it is. It’s a great protector for heat styling. The formula is rich in Villalba lentils extract which abounds in sericin and glutamic acid. The product is lightweight and nice to use.
That’s the end of the roundup featuring my favorite heat protectants for hair. Do you have any other product that you recommend? Have you used any of the above? Share your top choice in the comments. Ciao!
