good for a while

I liked this heat protect spray the first few times I used it. Maybe I sprayed to much on but felt like it did make my hair feel a bit oily. When I was using it I had to wash my hair a lot more often and I'm not a huge fan of that with the mop I have. But it smelt good and seemed to help with split ends so I'm happy with that part of it

Tips: Don't use to much spray

seems to protect my hair from heat damage

I've been using this product for about 6 weeks and I'm about halfway done with the bottle. I had been using a Giovanni spray previously but shipping for one item was too expensive so I decided to see what I could find at the supermarket. This was the only protectant spray I could see for a reasonable price (about $7), so I decided to give it a go.

The packaging is nice, I love pink so it's a winner there for me. The spray nozzle works well to mist the product over my hair. It also has a little push through button to easily lock it so little fingers can't waste your Product!

The smell is OK, not my fave. It kind of reminds me of a guys body spray. After straightening my hair, I can't smell it anymore though so that's good.

I think this spray makes claims that I haven't seen though. My hair hasn't been damaged from heat but I don't get any shine from this. I guess I don't really get frizz from it either which is good. My hair doesn't tend to be too frizzy anyway and I do also use leave in conditioner after straightening as well.

Overall, i think this works alright as far as heat protection goes. It's not my fave but being so cheap and accessible at the supermarket means i am very likely to pick it up again.

Tips: I just mist this all over my hair and in all the ayers too. I have fine, long hair and lots of it so I probably use more product then most people would. This would last ages if you only have short hair.

Not so sure on this one.

I have used almost a whole bottle of this over the past few weeks and will be trying other products.

I have found it has worked for a short while, making my hair beautiful, sleek and shiny but then a few hours later the frizz is back and the sleekness is gone. Maybe this is because my hair is particulary hard to manage?

However, it does smell super scrummy, is really reasonably priced and is easy to use.

Love the formula

I've been straightening my hair for many years now and to be honest I had kind of given up on heat protection sprays. I know how bad that is, but I think I purchased to many bad ones to want to continue using them. I read some reviews on the VO5 Heat Protect and decided that given it's decent price I would give it a try.

I really like the formula, other heat protectant sprays I have used have felt super sticky almost, and seemed to be more like a hair spray texture. This one is light and not clunky at all.

I know some people are bothered by the smell, but I quite like it. I don't find it too overpowering on my hair, and the smell seems to disappear once it drys anyway.

I'm not 100% how much it's protecting my hair though. I suppose it is kind of hard to tell - but I don't feel like my hair is any worse. I don't feel the need to wash my hair any more often that I would normally do (with other similar products I felt like my hair would get greasier quite fast).

Tips: Concentrate it on your ends if you get quite dry/split ends.It does leave them feeling softer!

Go to Heat Protection

I straighten my hair so much its crazy, i ran out of a different heat spray so i went to buy a new one and grabbed this. I used this the next time I did my hair and was just so happy with the results it was frizz free and it had a shine to it like it said. I've used this from then on and am still happy with the results. Added bonus is that it smells amazing!

Tips: Don't spray directly on roots, go part way down to spray so it doesn't make your hair feel oily/greasy

Vo5 a brand you can trust

I used to use oil to help fight frizz when straightening my hair when really I was frying it. A friend of mine introduced me to this product and wow! am I grateful she did. It smells so good and really helps protect even the frizziest wildest hair from damage caused by straightening. Easy to hold bottle and great trigger lock button on it. Great value for money too.

Protected!

I was never really one to use a heat protector on my hair when straightening because I was in denial that I was ruining my hair. I never used to be a person who straightened my hair all the time anyway so what was the point? I never really answered this question until I got a hair style that required straightening every single day. After a few weeks my hair started looking frizzier than usual and very dry. I now know I was frying my hair! This is when I scoured the supermarkets for a heat protector and one that reduced the frizz. Enter VO5 Heat Protect Styling Spray.

For $8 I am all in with a grin. This is by far one of the cheaper alternatives and probably one of the best that I have used. I have had great success with VO5 products in the past so thought this one was going to be another slam dunk. I love the pink bottle this comes in. It looks very hairdresser-ish on my makeup draws. The spray bottle is perfect too because it distributes the spray in a big fan over my hair instead of in one spot like some. It smells chemically but it's a pleasant smell to have on my hair rather than burnt hair smell.

I spray this on my head five minutes before straightening so not to make it sizzle by straightening it straight after spraying on. Of course I was skeptical of this actually saving my hair from further damage but behold my frizzy bits were far more tame and my hair didn't smell of burnt hair afterwards. For such a small price I am hooked!

Tips: Spray on to hair five minutes before straightening to avoid the sizzling of the product and so that it has a chance to work

Great!!

This is a very great product, it does exactly what it says I does as I have noticed my hair to be shinier and frizz free when I use it before heat styling! It also has a lovely fragrance to it which I get compliments on all the time!!

Tips: Don't use too much at a time as it can have a waxy effect to your hair.

Shortlived beauty

The first time I used this product, I thought it was made specifically for me. My hair is extremely long, curly and unmanageable even on the best of days without straightening. I found this product to have reduced my frizz considerably, it made my hair shiny, and it gives off a light floral scent. However, after multiple uses, I found the product to be less and less effective on my hair. I found that it was lasting less and less throughout the days and nights, no matter how much straightening or product i used. I found the frizz came back after just a few hours, no matter what the weather or situation, it just wasn't as effective as that first use! I'm not sure if its because my unruly hair decided to build up an immunity, but I still recommend it to anyone whose hair is more responsive to these types of products.
