HG heat protection?! I think YES! It's about time...


I have fine, hip length, wavy, easily damaged hair that is a general PITA. I've tried almost every drug store brand and a few high ends heat protectants too. They either weighed my hair down - flat and limp, made my tangle prone hair a ratty mess because of even the slightest stickiness, would work alright for straightening but were horrible for use when curling (my hair doesn't hold curl well) or they flat out did not work. Regardless of the amount I would use, I would still get a lot of split ends and heat damage. This one has NONE of those problems! It's the best I have found.


From the first use I noticed that this product was different from others I have used. As soon as I sprayed it into my damp hair, all of the tangles instantly disappeared. It smells pretty good and my hair felt smooth and strong. I blow-dried and was left with a lot of volume and shine. So far I was very satisfied. Then, the next day I used it before I curled my hair and the curl through the next day! Not a single sign of damage or dryness - and believe me, I looked.


I bought this at the Salon in the front of my local Walmart. I paid full price ($16.99), but the deal was buy 1 get 2 free. SO, I bought 2 of these and a Regis finishing spray for that price. Not too bad! I would assume that there are regular sales on this from my experience and the other reviews. Even if you have to pay the full $17, this product is worth it.

UGH I MISS THIS STUFF! I was good friends with this girl who is a licensed hair stylist, and we were at the salon store and this product was on sale for $4. She recommended I get it. I did and ended up loving it! First off it smells great. The formula is pretty thin but spreads easily. Most importantly, no split ends and makes your hair silky and feels healthy. I ran out and have no idea where else to purchase it other than the salon store, and my friend moved away and I can't get in without her!

I use this heat protectant spray ALL the time, I love it!! I am on my third bottle, and I love the way it goes on dry. It's the only spray i've found that goes on as dry as it does. You definitely have to be careful not to use to much because it can get greasy if you do, and all it takes is a quick little spray to protect your hair. I have used the iron in control for thick/course hair, but prefer the iron in volume a little more. It just seems to be a little more protective of my hair during heat styling. A quick spritz of this on your dry hair immediately before you flat iron and boom!! healthy, protected hair that can handle heat styling! I love this product and am completely dedicated to it. I will continue to use this product for as long as I heat style my hair. I would completely reccomend this product!!

I'm very reluctant to try any additional products after having washed my hair - they always seem to either weigh my hair down, make it look greasy (even though my hair is on the drier side) or in general, just not work with my hair so I usually just end up tossing them out. I straighten my hair out regularly and use a flat iron occasionally so it's wonderful I found a product that is great on my hair. A hairdresser used this on my hair when she was flat ironing it, she spritzed in onto sections and then flat ironed and I was seriously impressed. It did not leave ANY oily residue nor weigh it down, protected my hair and left it looking sleek, full and healthy. Amazing find. I am extremely satisfied with this product and intend on looking into other products by this brand.

The price seems a little steep. BUT....It's worth it. This is the first heat spray I've used that's actually done what it says it will do and then some.
I iron my very fine hair almost every day and it doesn't look the part at all. My hair has never been more shiney or looked fuller after ironing. I've not noticed a split end yet and it's been about 2 months since my last cut.

Absolutely amazing!! It is so much easier flat ironing my hair now. I spray this on my dry hair (don't over do it) and it makes hair very very silky and soft (and straight of course). I wish I would have discovered this sooner!!

I used the Iron-in Volume to flat iron my hair. It is a dry mist that helps seal in body and shine.I used the Iron-in Volume for medium/coarse hair. I section off my hair and spray each section with the Iron-in Volume. This spray made my hair very straight and it gave my hair a lot of body. I was very impressed with the results of using this product. This will be my HG styling product for flat ironing my hair.

This comes out of the bottle in a wet mist so I was hesistant about applying a wet spray to my blow dried hair. I was shocked when it dried immediately. I use this right before flat ironing, and my hair has never looked better. It gets super straight with this product. I used another product before, and it left my hair wet and stiff feeling. I am so excited that I found something that works well with my hair when flat ironing. It's not the cheapest at $16, but it's worth every penny.

This is definitely the most amazing heat protectant I've ever tried! I do have medium/coarse hair as a whole (the strand itself is a lot thinner than it used to be... a little strange) and it has a tendency to get weighed down quite a bit and be a little flatter than I like. this product I could actually apply from root to tip and not have to worry about it weighing the roots down.

I sort of bend the iron over at the root to boost volume, but it's great either way. I do like the smell, very light perfume fragrance and it doesn't stay in the hair like a lot of products do.. It's so light that it usually just goes on dry and helps the iron or curling iron to just glide over the hair shaft without pulling or stopping in certain spots. So I would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs something they know is going to protect the hair without leaving it with buildup they're going to have to wash out that night. I can use this over and over in a few days if I need to and can still go about a week without washing, it's amazing. Try it, you won't be sorry.

This product makes straightning easy and faster. I have straight dark thick hair that has been recently short layered ant thinned out and this product makes my hair super sleek without making it flat! My hair still has volume and the product smells ok. The only con about this product is that it makes the hair somewhat dry and straw like(stiff) and not soft.

I was reluctant to try this with all my trials with other thermal styling sprays but I was surprised with this one. Unlike the Chi spray, my hair did not feel greasy, although it was just as soft (unlike Dove & Biolage) and perfectly styled. The pump spray releases a fine mist that looks like it may stay wet on my hair, but it quickly dries. My flat-iron is from the drugstore so before I had this product I had to run the iron on the same section a few times for it to work. This product eliminates that harsh repeating process & keeps my hair soft, shiny, and straight all day, Love love love.

LOVE this product! I have naturally wavy/curly hair. Medium courseness and somewhat thick. I use a flat iron about 4-5 times a week. My hair does best when I do not blow dry but let it air dry and then flat iron. I got this product from a friend who works in a salon and I have been addicted ever since! Just ordered 2 more bottles! It makes my hair shiny and sleek. Feels conditioned. Not dried out. And it has a golden "shine" to it. The only thing I don't like is the bottle is hard to hold and then pump with only one hand. I'd have rated the packaging a 5 if not for that. But overall, a winner!
