Your fave Heat protectant?

Hello

I'm looking for a really good heat protectant. I've tried the Redken one and i honestly hated it...it made my hair really really stiff. Any suggestions for a good one you've tried?

Thanks!

I use Loreal's Studio Line Hot Straight, it works fine, no stiffness at all and the smell is nice. It comes in a pink bottle..

Tresseme Heat Tamer and Mane & Tail Barrier! These are the only 2 HP Prods I use and love them both!

I don't use one since I've just realized I needed to use one (DUH!), but my hair is also in its natural state, which is curly, ATM. I hear CHI is really good.

Thanks ladies for the recs!

maybe you're using too much product, beautynista. that happens to me (my hair gets stiff) when i do. less is the way to go

Nice, I will try to find this.I am using one too I bought it from the salon, it is I think from Thilend, with strange alphabet , but it is works great! (it is in green bottle)

TIGI hair laminator is good. Brings out the shine on my newly rebonded hair.

2nd on the Tresemme Heat Tamer Spray!!! I love it!!!

My favorite is the L'oreal product also. I do like the Treseme too!

I use this stuff called Ion, it's from Sally Beauty. It's a white bottle with a pink lid.

It is a lightweight cream (not a thick gel or wax) so it doesn't make your hair crunchy at all. Plus, it works well as an anti-static / anti-frizz product, even though it's not advertized as one! Without a heat protectant, my hair is so static-y I can't even make it stay in the flat iron, it all flys away! But with the Hot Straight, I have no problems with it!

I use Tsubaki oil for my hair protection.

Thanks so much for this post! I have been looking for a good product to use on my hair when I use my flat iron. But how much do U apply of the Loreal Hot Straight or Tresemme Heat Tammer spray? I mean do U completely saturate your hair with it or only use a little....an comb it through? Thanks

Thanks for the recs ladies! I just bought Hot Straight and am excited to try it with my new flat iron

Thanks Well, I'm no expert, I'm sure other girls know better.. but personally I apply a small amount and comb it through my hair with my fingers, sometimes if I feel the need I add some more for the ends...I have a long hair and I fell that 2-3 pumps from the bottle are enough.

But I dont think that putting a lot is bad, basically this stuff suppose to protect the hair...just don't apply on the roots!
