Description

Style Assist Blow Dry Mist
If you love a good blowout but wish it was less of a chore, this will be a game changer. It cuts down drying time, adds epic shine and protects against heat up to 450°F. Here are my two favorite ways to use it...

How to:

On wet hair for blow drying:
1. Apply a thin layer on detangled, towel dried hair before blow drying. (Yes, you can layer this on top of your Leave-In Conditioner!)
2. Blow dry using your favorite flat brush or round brush to create smooth, shiny, healthy looking hair.

On dry hair for thermal styling:
1. Hold the bottle 6” away from your hair and spray a thin layer on the section you want to heat style. I like to comb it through with my fingers or a comb for even distribution.
2. Use your curling iron, flat iron or any thermal hair styling tool to create your desired texture.

Tip: Go easy... a little goes a long way!

Contains Zip-Up Technology, our proprietary strengthening complex designed to "zip-up" split ends while targeting weak areas of the hair, smoothing the appearance of damaged cuticles and helping to protect hair from environmental stressors and color fade.

    tried and true heat protection. lightweight, doesn't feel sticky or oily or heavy. wish it was lighter on the scent. also a little expensive for how much product you get. but it's the best for my hair so far.

    Adds shine while protecting from heat

    This is my favorite styling product! I have hair that is naturally wavy and frizzes easily. I use this product prior to curling or flat ironing and it leaves as nice shine without weighing my hair down. Also it has a nice light scent that is pleasant.

    I like it!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This worked great on my straight hair, I tried it on my natural hair and then bleached my hair and it still worked well. I use this with my blow dry brush and it makes my hair smooth. I also use it when straightening as heat protectant. I just douse my hair in it and wait a minute or two and then start blow drying it.

    Strong Fragrence

    The smell of this is SO strong. I feel like I’m wearing a gross perfume when using this. Do not recommend if you are sensitive to smells.
