44 Chi Iron Guard

Not a fan. Puffed up my roots and made my hair hard and tangled at the root. Giving it away to my niece to try.

This product really works for heat protection. It also adds body, texture and hold. I'm in the process of growing my hair really long, so saving my ends from split ends is imperative. On wet hair, I apply Chi Infra Thermal Protective Treatment (it's a leave in oil that I love). I then blow dry my hair and spray the Chi iron Guard onto my ends and about half way up (never on the roots) …Read more

My Holy Grail of heat protectants!! I’m an AA female with semi-relaxed hair, 40+, and I credit CHI’s 44 Iron Guard heat protectant with saving my hair from disaster and encouraging growth! I use it daily before curling dry hair, plus on blowouts/flat irons. I have tried MANY other heat protectants, but this one is the only one that visibly saves my ends. I spray generously (6 - 9 pumps; I try …Read more

Having never tried CHI products and being in need of a heat protectant for flat ironing my hair, I picked up a trial size (about $5.79 at CVS). Unfortunately I didn't check here before picking it up, and was disheartened by all the negative reviews.
The positive reviews gave me a little optimism that it would do the job, though, and I tested it out on my bangs.
As one reviewer …Read more

This stuff is awful. I used this to prep my hair prior to using a curling iron. The spray helped curl the hair nicely and gave it good hold. When I brushed my hair out, pieces of hair were breaking off!

Purchased in full size. Doesn't protect from heat, feels as if you have sprayed alcohol in your hair and flat ironed it. Sticky and makes your hair feel and look like straw. Broken hair and frayed ends. Overpriced and bad. I use it as a hairspray. Will not repurchase.

I'm so surprised this heat protector has such middling reviews. I have just about the most stubborn, frizzy, prone to dryness and damage hair on the face of the earth and this spray didn't exacerbate any of my "issues".
The price isn't as cheap as Tresemme's heat guard, which is my go-to, but it's not outrageous either. I think I picked this up on …Read more

I'm honestly shocked that this has so many bad reviews. This is one of the only heat protectants I like. It doesn't have an overwhelming smell. My hair doesn't feel any different with this in. I'm thinking the people who are complaining their hair got crunchy or felt some type of way maybe used too much? Anyways, I completely back what this product does. I have color treated …Read more

My hair felt damaged and the texture changed after using this...the chi serum is 10X better.

Overpriced for the amount of things this thing does.

Pros:
- Smells really nice. Just has a really clean scent.
- The spray dispenses just the right amount of product.
- Doesn't run out quickly. After many uses, I still have more than half left.

Cons:
- DRIES OUT HAIR. I've never had this problem with …Read more
