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!

Burn Baby

I have dry damaged blonde hair. I am going through an intensive moisture reconstructing plan to help my hair grow healthier and stronger. I have naturally curly hair that I like to quickly run a straightener through to make it go wavy.

The bottle was a good size and is lightweight and has a little clip thing so you can travel with it easily. The smell was not pleasant but no overpowering.

I sprayed it through my hair when it was air dry and it seemed to be going everywhere, I let the spray dry and began straightening my hair after when i ran the brush through my hair i found some of my hair was extreamly burnt and i had to cut it off. This is the sixth and last time I have used this spray and its happened three times. It does not protect the hair very well. I have never burnt my hair on a hair straightener before using this product.

Tips: I think I will go back to my Tresseme heat protect spray. I think it's a no go for people with hair like mine.

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!

Great price and does the trick

I brought this product when I ran out of heat protection and desperately needed to buy more and this was the only one I could find at the supermarket. The spray is great for the price and it did what it said it would! I prefer a more moisturising/conditioning heat protection, but if I wanted a cheap heat protection that protects and lessens the damage from straightening my hair I would buy again!

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.

Really good spray

I use this every time I straighten my hair and it does an awesome job. It smells amazing and sprays a good amount evenly over your hair. The spray is light weight so even if I spray too much my hair doesn't feel weighted down or greasy. I love the lock feature on the spray nozzle which makes it handy when traveling. I am left with nice soft shining hair after each use.

Not so sure on this one.

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.

Go to Heat Protection

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!

Tips: Don't spray directly on roots, go part way down to spray so it doesn't make your hair feel oily/greasy

Great!!

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!!

Tips: Don't use too much at a time as it can have a waxy effect to your hair.
