VO5 Heat Protect Styling Spray

I've been using this product for about 6 weeks and I'm about halfway done with the bottle. I had been using a Giovanni spray previously but shipping for one item was too expensive so I decided to see what I could find at the supermarket. This was the only protectant spray I could see for a reasonable price (about $7), so I decided to give it a go.

The packaging is nice, I love pink so it's a winner there for me. The spray nozzle works well to mist the product over my hair. It also has a little push through button to easily lock it so little fingers can't waste your Product!

The smell is OK, not my fave. It kind of reminds me of a guys body spray. After straightening my hair, I can't smell it anymore though so that's good.

I think this spray makes claims that I haven't seen though. My hair hasn't been damaged from heat but I don't get any shine from this. I guess I don't really get frizz from it either which is good. My hair doesn't tend to be too frizzy anyway and I do also use leave in conditioner after straightening as well.

Overall, i think this works alright as far as heat protection goes. It's not my fave but being so cheap and accessible at the supermarket means i am very likely to pick it up again.

I have used almost a whole bottle of this over the past few weeks and will be trying other products.

I have found it has worked for a short while, making my hair beautiful, sleek and shiny but then a few hours later the frizz is back and the sleekness is gone. Maybe this is because my hair is particulary hard to manage?

However, it does smell super scrummy, is really reasonably priced and is easy to use.

I've been straightening my hair for many years now and to be honest I had kind of given up on heat protection sprays. I know how bad that is, but I think I purchased to many bad ones to want to continue using them. I read some reviews on the VO5 Heat Protect and decided that given it's decent price I would give it a try.

I really like the formula, other heat protectant sprays I have used have felt super sticky almost, and seemed to be more like a hair spray texture. This one is light and not clunky at all.

I know some people are bothered by the smell, but I quite like it. I don't find it too overpowering on my hair, and the smell seems to disappear once it drys anyway.

I'm not 100% how much it's protecting my hair though. I suppose it is kind of hard to tell - but I don't feel like my hair is any worse. I don't feel the need to wash my hair any more often that I would normally do (with other similar products I felt like my hair would get greasier quite fast).

I straighten my hair so much its crazy, i ran out of a different heat spray so i went to buy a new one and grabbed this. I used this the next time I did my hair and was just so happy with the results it was frizz free and it had a shine to it like it said. I've used this from then on and am still happy with the results. Added bonus is that it smells amazing!

i've been using this for quite a while now and i love it. it does the job perfectly and smells amazing! the spray bottle makes it really easy to apply to your whole head and is overall a really good product

I was never really one to use a heat protector on my hair when straightening because I was in denial that I was ruining my hair. I never used to be a person who straightened my hair all the time anyway so what was the point? I never really answered this question until I got a hair style that required straightening every single day. After a few weeks my hair started looking frizzier than usual and very dry. I now know I was frying my hair! This is when I scoured the supermarkets for a heat protector and one that reduced the frizz. Enter VO5 Heat Protect Styling Spray.

For $8 I am all in with a grin. This is by far one of the cheaper alternatives and probably one of the best that I have used. I have had great success with VO5 products in the past so thought this one was going to be another slam dunk. I love the pink bottle this comes in. It looks very hairdresser-ish on my makeup draws. The spray bottle is perfect too because it distributes the spray in a big fan over my hair instead of in one spot like some. It smells chemically but it's a pleasant smell to have on my hair rather than burnt hair smell.

I spray this on my head five minutes before straightening so not to make it sizzle by straightening it straight after spraying on. Of course I was skeptical of this actually saving my hair from further damage but behold my frizzy bits were far more tame and my hair didn't smell of burnt hair afterwards. For such a small price I am hooked!

This is a very great product, it does exactly what it says I does as I have noticed my hair to be shinier and frizz free when I use it before heat styling! It also has a lovely fragrance to it which I get compliments on all the time!!

The first time I used this product, I thought it was made specifically for me. My hair is extremely long, curly and unmanageable even on the best of days without straightening. I found this product to have reduced my frizz considerably, it made my hair shiny, and it gives off a light floral scent. However, after multiple uses, I found the product to be less and less effective on my hair. I found that it was lasting less and less throughout the days and nights, no matter how much straightening or product i used. I found the frizz came back after just a few hours, no matter what the weather or situation, it just wasn't as effective as that first use! I'm not sure if its because my unruly hair decided to build up an immunity, but I still recommend it to anyone whose hair is more responsive to these types of products.

I bought this product because I had run out of heat protectant (and although this isn't my usual...I was desperate)

I knew the brand V05 was reliant and a good product for the price. I have quite curly hair which I straighten every day so a good lasting heat protectant is a must!

I am quite happy with this product, it has a nice smell, and it works! The only thing I do not like is how oily it is, you do have to spray it from quite a distance and avoid your roots. Which kind of makes me feel like a lot of product is being wasted each time I spray it.

I would use it again, but it would not be my first choice.
