HSI PROFESSIONAL Argan Oil Heat Protector | Protect up to 450º F from Flat Irons

I initially bought this producy to protect my hair from the heat of my flat iron (I am a 36 y/o white male with wavy and somewhat thick mid-length hair).While the product does seem to do what's on the tin (protect from the heat of flat irons and blow dryers), I have found it to serve an even better purpose as a styling agent.The two best use cases are as follows:Apply it to damp hair out the shower, after shampooing and conditioning, followed up by a blow dry. Without applying the oil, my hair often looks dry, frizzes in areas, and lays flat. With the oil, my hair looks almost like it was salon-finished. It looks shiny (without being greasy), healthy, and voluminous.The second best use for this product is to apply it after waking up when I don't have time to shower. Frequently after waking up, my hair just lays the wrong way and combing it doesn't help. What I'll do is to run the faucet with warm water, splash the water onto my hair to get it damp again, apply the argan oil, comb, and blow dry. The end result looks about 85% as good as applying it out the shower and is a 100% improvement over my bed head.As others have written, I would not recommend applying this product to dry hair as it will weigh your hair down and can look greasy. This product seems to lock in moisture so is best applied to damp hair. Upon initial application it can feel a bit sticky. But as it dries, the stickiness fades completely.This is overall my favorite hair product as it addresses pretty much every issue I have with with my hair, from frizziness and flatness to lack of volume and dryness. It accomplishes all this WITHOUT leaving a greasy finish, and it smells pretty good to boot. Sadly Amazon is frequently out of stock lately but it's worth snagging when you can.

I have been using this spray for over a year now and this product has transformed my hair. I use it daily. I have also told my friends about it! I highly recommend this product!I was trying to find something that would protect my hair from the daily torture of washing, blow drying, flat-iron use, and hairspray. I have been trying to grow my short hair out for a year, but every two months my stylist would have to cut off any growth I did have due to damage. I happened to stumble upon this product on Amazon due to it's high ratings. I started reading the awesome reviews and figured I had nothing to lose. What I hadn't bargained for is what I had to gain from this purchase! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this styling line! After reading the reviews, I purchased both the thermal protector spray and the leave in argan oil conditioner (which is an oil). After the first use, I received compliments about my hair's shiny, smooth texture. I have fairly curly hair that is fine yet thick and frizzy. This product protects my hair from the blow dryer and flat iron. I use a Babyliss iron that heats up to 450 degrees to straighten my hair. I have to do this daily, since the texture of my hair, combined with the hairspray, ensures that daily washing is a must. I have to tell you that my hair has never looked better. It is smooth, lays flatter, and stays smooth even in humidity. I actually believe it is contributing to the health of my hair and it has grown more in the last 3 months than I've ever seen. I use the leave in conditioner (oil) by rubbing a small (dime size) amount through my hair after blow drying. You can further protect your hair by dipping your fingers in the oil and applying to the sections as you straighten them with a flat iron. I concentrate on the ends and this has protected my hair beautifully. I can't say enough about this product, and this line of products. For people with hair like me, it is the answer to a life long search for something that can tame our hair! I'm sold! It's the best product line I've come across in over thirty years of fighting with my hair. We get along great now! Try these two products; you will not believe the difference in your hair's texture and sheen! My hair is healthy, shiny and happy - Finally!

This is a great product. I use this in combination with coconut oil when I straighten my hair and it is so shiny and healthy looking afterwards. My hair isn't in the greatest shape right now due to bleaching, but I'm in the process of getting it healthy again and I think this product is a big help. It's also good at keeping frizz at bay.For me there are 2 downsides to this product, but definitely not deal breakers! 1) is the smell...it isn't pleasant at all in my opinion and 2) is the type of spray nozzle it comes with. The mist is great and coats hair evenly, but it's one of those sprayers that covers a large area at once and as soon as I spray it, the particles find there way to my nose making me sneeze or just irritating my nose in general. I thought this was weird, because I've never encountered this while spraying a hair product into my hair! However, the nozzle does function very easily and smoothly which is a big plus.So, are these reasons not to buy this awesome spray?....no not at all. Just thought it was worth mentioning for those who may be sensitive to such things. I definitely recommend this spray to add shine and a healthy overall appearance to your hair! For those of you wondering about the benefits of the coconut oil I mentioned above....coat your hair and scalp in the oil and let sit for at least 30 minutes(longer is good too!). Wash your hair as usual, avoiding getting shampoo on the ends. This will leave a slight coating of oil in those areas to add moisture to your hair and make it look shiny after styling. HSI spray combined with this will make your hair look great!
