A heat protectant is a necessity for anyone who uses heat tools to style their hair.

When you use, say, a flat iron on your hair to straighten it, a heat protectant is basically the only thing standing between your hair and a 100+ degree hot plate.

When you use any heat protectant, it works as a shield against whatever heat tool you’re using. Heat damage is inevitable when you’re using heat tools, but using a heat protectant lessens it exponentially.

There are a lot of pretty effective heat protectants out there. However, a lot of times people tend to fall for the expensive ones because they figure they’ll be the best quality.

Wrong!

From what I’ve experienced and heard from others, the higher-end heat protectants are usually disappointing and a waste of money.

TRESemmé Thermal Creations Heat Tamer Leave-In Spray is efficient and inexpensive. It’s only $6 or less depending on the drugstore, and it’ll work wonders on your hair.

This product will make your hair softer and keep the heat damage to a minimum.

It’s a great spray to use with other styling products (like a cream) when you’re straightening your hair, since it’s so lightweight. Plus, it smells great, too.

All in all, this heat protectant is great for preventing heat damage to your hair while keeping things cheap and convenient.

If you use a blow dryer, flat iron, curling iron, or hot rollers, I would definitely recommend TRESemmé Thermal Creations Heat Tamer Leave-In Spray to reduce breakage, drying, and split ends.
