Best Heat Protectant

[YourOneAndOnly]

For straightening hair?

Does anyone know if Redken Smooth Down Heat Glide is any good?

Any others?

I haven't used that one. I have used Redken's Anti Snap, but I wasn't very happy with it.

Good luck!

I have the CHI Iron Guard. It makes my hair really nice and smooth and smells pretty. Only thing is my hair comes out super flat and I hate that

I use a tresemme one at the moment it seems to be doing ok but my hair really needs something more so i am still looking.

I use matrix sleek look thermal smoother. It's a heat protectant/ thermal smoothing spray. This stuff is a godsend for me. It makes a huge difference in my hair. Straightening w/o it makes my hair somewhat dry, brittle, and dull looking with some frizz. Using it makes my hair sleek, shiny, and healthy looking, and leaves it really really soft. There's a cheaper generic version of it at Sally's called "Slickline" I haven't tried it, but I've tried the conditioner and it works exactly like the Matrix.

I decided to go ahead and buy the Redken Smooth Down Heat Glide. I noticed a difference in my hair today. I didn't straighten my hair fully, just a little so I could tie it back in a ponytail. My hair felt really soft. If you use the right amount of stuff and not too much, i think you ladies would like it. It felt like straightening was a lot easier to do once I used this in my hair, and it smells really nice too

I like Frekkai glossing cream. It's not a heat protectant but it's moisturizing and helps to shine my hair. It is a little pricey but you only use a tiny amount each time.

Sally beauty supply also makes a really cheap protectant that works well. You just can't put too much or it make your hair greasy.

I've tried Matrix Gold Heat and it makes my hair flat even though the bottle says "iron-in volume". It was a dissappointing purchase.

You should ask whether your salon guarantees its products, because if it doesn't work you can take it back and exchange it for something you may like a little better
