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.
cruelty free | color + keratin safe
Free of sulfates, parabens + phthalates

Q: Can this be used after applying Kristin Ess Instant Lift Volumizing Mousse?
submitted by Pattiann - 5 years ago
A: Hello! That's a great question. Yes, you may definitely use the Style Assist Blow Dry Mist after applying the Volumizing Mousse. We recommend that you concentrate on applying the Volumizing Mousse from your roots to the middle of your hair first and allow about 2 minutes before applying the Blow Dry Mist. We also recommend concentrating on the middle of your hair all the way to your ends when applying the Blow Dry Mist.

This product smells great and works fast to dry hair. The only problem? It will DESTROY your hair, especially if you color your hair. It dried my hair out so bad, it was splitting at the top. My hair stylist and I were stumped until I realized it was this. It’s been 3 months since I stopped using it and now use multiple conditioners and my hair is almost back to normal.
Works and smells great!

This is onw of my holy grail products. Not only does it shorten blow dry time, in my experience it also acts as a detangler. It also smells so good! There is plenty of product and as the packaging says a little really does go a long way. I feel as though you get your money’s worth.
Lightweight, Effective and Adds Shine!

I’ve been using the Kristin Ess Style Assist Blow Dry Mist for a couple weeks now, and it’s become a essential in my hair routine. It has a smooth and great lightness, my hair doesn’t feel heavy at all. If you are looking for something to make your hair sleek, shiny, and protected I recommend this!
Smells good, works well

I love how well this product works. It actually assists in the blow drying time but I have a few complaints. I felt like my hair felt more damaged after using this even though it’s supposed to be a protectant. Then the scent is awful. It is so strong I can’t breathe. I returned this.
Its a no for me.

First, love the smell. The product itself is oily which made my roots oily. But that’s not why I’m giving it a two star rating. The product actually caused my hair to burn while I was blowing it out. Like literally crispy and broke off. I also noticed a lot of breakage with it. I have a balayage so for girlies with bleached hair please be careful.
Must have

This is an amazing heat spray. It reminds me of the kenra spray. Pros: scent is great, makes hair silky, shortens dry time, makes hair less tangly cons: makes me breakout! This con might not apply to you. I have really sensitive skin, and many products make me breakout, but this one really makes me breakout. I can’t use it anymore because anywhere the product touched I got a pimple including back, neck, and face. If you don’t have sensitive skin I would absolutely purchase it, but if you do, I’d think twice.
Great Blowdry Results

This has completely improved my blow drying experience! I have sort of thick, slightly wavy oily hair and this product is better than anything else that I’ve tried. The smell is great and my hair is left feeling soft, looks sleek without looking oily, and it doesn’t tangle anymore. I am almost completely out of my first bottle and will 100% repurchase.

Love love love the scent and it works to protect hair, but the denatured alcohol ingredient in the product dried the heck out of my hair. Ended up making it look frizzy and dried out unfortunately. But it does the job if your hair type works well with the ingredients!
Tames frizz and smells fantastic

This spray is amazing. I’m in love with the smell. Whenever I need to pass the hair iron for touch ups, I spray this for the heat protection. Plus, it adds shine to my hair too! Kristen Ess has been good to my hair. Will definitely buy again!

Not crazy about the heavy perfume scent, but it makes my fine, straight hair super sleek and helps minimize breakage and split ends. I wouldn't say it's better than prestige brands, but it's great if you're on a budget. Just wish it came in a bigger bottle.

Probably my favorite hair product EVER!!!!! I have been repurchasing 2-3 times a year for about 5 years now. I have very long, thick hair but it takes me max 6 minutes to dry using this spray & a Dyson. Such a miracle in a bottle
