My go-to heat protect spray

I've straightened my hair for many years, and have gone through quite a few hair protect products. I chose this spray because it's easy to find (supermarkets, Farmers,etc), and for it's price. It comes in a cute, hot-pink, plastic spray bottle which has a lock feature (though I find this feature sort of useless, I have never felt the need to lock my spray), but maybe it would be useful for some people. I do love the scent of the spray, it smells like the hair sprays used in salons and is pleasant and floral, as opposed to chemical. It definitely does as claimed, in protecting my hair from heat-products, as my hair continues to feel conditioned and moisturised. However, I do not feel that this product necessarily adds shine or a "smooth finish" to my hair- I believe that my hair straightener is what gives it a smooth finish. Also have not see it give me a "frizz free" finish either

Tips: For truly frizz free hair, you may need to rely on a serum. Do use a heat protectant spray every time you use a straightener- I have burnt my hair before, and it's not nice!

Love the formula

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).

Tips: Concentrate it on your ends if you get quite dry/split ends.It does leave them feeling softer!

Heat protection v05

My hairs quite badly damaged so when I straighten I always apply heat protection and I've tried lots f brands. They all seem much of a muchness though? This one left my hair a little stiff but that could be cause I applied to much or cause of my damage. But it's affordable and easy to use

It's in my bathroom, but not used a lot!

I straighten my hair religiously, so I do a lot of damage to it. I pull this stuff out only when I know I'm going to be washing it out again within a day or so. It definitely does the job, but leave my hair quite heavy, and if I don't wash it out my face is oiled up by the next day. I imagine it would be a dream on really, really dry hair but in my case it is reserved for ultimate heat.

Tips: Don't forget to use it before you blow-dry. I find it less greasy AND my hair is protected from step 1.

Affordable and works

I actually rarely use heat for styling my hair, much as I'd like to. I really need to stop buying skincare and make up so I can spend some beauty budget on a hair straightener. Nevertheless, this does not deter me from purchasing products such as this, simply because I figure that if it protects one's hair from heat, then surely it must be good for my fine, frizzy, damaged hair? I like this spray because it's lightweight and I can spritz it on any time and it seems to help my hair settle a bit without being heavy or greasy. And at that price, what's not to like?

Great product

I use my straightner everyday so to have something that protects my hair from the heat a little is essential. I love the smell of this pray. I love the bottle the leaver makes it easy to use with one hand. The spray helped with the heat it took away fuzziness and made my hair shiny amd soft. This is a great affordable heat protecting spray.

Great Shine

This product is great for heat protection, it is easy to use, you don't need to spray too much and it leaves your hair looking great and shiney! It has a smell to it as well, which is very pleasant. I have brought this mutiple times as one of my main heat protection sprays!

Extra: I love the little button on the top of the lid to allow it to be locked/unlocked.

Tips: Use 20-30cm away from your hair, when spraying it on.

Third times the charm??

I have just finished my second bottle and I'm still on the fence. I decided after the first bottle clogged even though it was still half full that I would buy another one and try because I felt I did like the product, just maybe not the packaging. After my second bottle I found I was sick of the smell and that when you spray it, it seems to go everywhere except your hair, and I have moved on to a different one

Tips: Try not to have anything important anywhere near oi when you spray, it goes everywhere, and the most isn't as fine as I would like so I find the spray concentrates in certain places and as you go to straighten, most of the product steams away

Styling spray

Im till on my first bottle of the product but i'm not 100% sure that I like this product as it doesn't smell nice and it doesn't leave my hair shiny after straightening. I do however love the packaging and the product does help to tame my frizzy hair.

I'm fairly indifferent to this product

To me a heat protectant is exactly that. a heat protectant and I don't find it any different to other heat protectants that I have used when using heat styling tools on my hair.

I have very long, dry, coloured hair, and I believe this product protects it against heat styling the best any product can.

The spray bottle is great - very simple to use and the product disperses well. The bottle also has an off and on, which I appreciate.It has a pleasant scent, nothing too soapy or strong.

The heat protectant has a light consistency, and dries quickly.

I would recommend this product to anyone needing an affordable heat protectant spray.
