Most Helpful Positive Review Best Thermal Styling Product I've Tried So Far!!! For quite some time, I've used another thermal spray prior to flat ironing my hair but never really fell in love with it because it always left my hair with a tacky feeling and flaky after using a flat iron.
After reading some reviews, I decided to give this a try. This is a great product to protect your hair from heat damage.
It's a dry spray and will not any flake after using the flat iron. It also smells great!
This product will definitely be a staple for my hair care needs.
Most Helpful Critical Review Causes hair to feel dried out like pinestraw I use a minimal amount of this...a quick, even spray all over just before I use my curling wand. I think it does a good job protecting my hair, but it does not do a good job of holding my curls and leaves my whole head feeling stiff and sticky...to the point that I cannot brush through it afterwards (kind of defeats the purpose of "protecting your hair" when the product makes your hair so stiff it breaks off if you try and brush through it after using the product). And forget about trying make your hair last for an additional day or two...my hair feels like pinestraw the next day. Just so stiff and dried out. I have tried using less product to no avail. This stuff just doesn't work for me. Feels like I went through a mist of pancake syrup after I've used it. Yuck.
Reviewed by 441 customers More hairspray than heat protectant 3
DMullen from Columbus, Ohio
Bought this based on a recommendation from a stylist mostly because it was cheaper than the other suggestion. I think this would be great if you're wanting to use a heat protectant with a curled style. But I used it for a straight style and it is more drying like a typical hairspray. So I'm only on day 4 and will need to wash because it's getting hard to brush my hair.
Love! 5

I have tried it all and always come back to this one. It is my absolute favorite!
No more frizzy hair! 5
Duty teacher from Louisiana
I usually deal with frizzy hair due to the humidity but not any longer. This keeps my hair shiny and smooth. I haven't had any issues with the nozzle clogging either!
The only heat protectant I will ever use 5

Caption says it all… my hair girl used this on me years ago and if I try anything else I always go back. So light, I love it.
Love love! 5
Wmarie from Kansas
Works great for my fine, natural wavy/curly hair after blow drying and before curling.
Love this heat protection!! 5
CASPERFECT from Pittsburgh
An Ulta employee recommended this product as my go-to heat protection was not available. I absolutely love this spray! I have very fine, thin straight hair and this keeps my style all day long. Not sticky at all, pleasant fresh scent. I use my flat iron daily. I can't believe after a few hours when I normally would need to fluff/restyle my hair, it is exactly as it was first thing in the morning. Highly recommend!!!

I love Hot off the Press. It adds just enough hold to make your style look great!
My new favorite! I 5
caitlinc972e from undisclosed
My new favorite! I have very straight hair that doesn't hold a curl well. I've tried other products but they just leave my hair feeling like I've used too much extra hold hair spray, crunchy and stuck together. This goes on super fine and makes my hair feel normal. It holds the curl really well. It says you can use before you curl and again after as a hair spray. I don't find that I need to use it again afterwards unless I'm trying to get a firm curl.
Smell is terrible 3
Kaila from Troy,NY
I like the idea of this product the smell is absolutely horrible. I may return it because of just that.

Love this Paul Mitchell 5
andrearay19 from undisclosed
Love this Paul Mitchell hot off the press heat protector! I think it's a good price and offers excellent hair protection when using hot tools. It doesn't leave a film or feel sticky. I would buy this again.

jessief35 from undisclosed
This is a pretty good spray. It doesn't hold up to sweat very well but will hold shape for a long time other than that.

Sticky and drying 3
Andrea from USA
This product smells good and does an okay job but left my hair sticky and dry after using, not my favorite.
This product is good for curling your hair but not for strai 3
Lori from Mdesto
Like the product but felt it was a little sticky and wasn't very good for straightening my hair. It was the reason I bought product.
Great product! 5
Delila from Lancaster, pa
I really like this for heat protection & hold. Lightweight & not sticky at all!
Best heat protectant ever 5
Bethany from Chapel Hill
I am so shocked at how well this hairspray worked for my hair! I have naturally curly 3a/3b hair and it kept my hair straight and soft all day even in humidity! Usually with other iron guards, by the end of the day it would be a little curly or frizzy and this kept my hair styled all day without any stiffness, just from using it before I straightened it as a heat protector! It also has a really nice, light fruity scent that I loved! Highly recommend and worth the price!!!
Sticky and Drying 3
Sary from OKC
This product smells great but I wouldn't buy it again. It feels like you're using a medium hold hairspray, which makes it hard to style your hair since you can barely get a brush through it. Also leaves your hair feeling pretty dry. I can get a better heat protectant from a drug store for 1/3 the price.
I love it. Works... 5
stephaniel308 from undisclosed
I love it. Works against a hair curler and trust me I needed it. Lasts long and is not heavy like those old sprays. I used it for my hair style for my wedding. The smell is not not over powering. It didn't seem harsh on my hair. I would buy again. Check out my pic.
soft hold 5
meme from nowhere land

Love this hairspray... 4
amandaig from undisclosed
Love this hairspray and the smell. It's very light weight and not sticky. I like that it offers heat protection as well. It does not hold curls very well though so I gave it four stars.
I would definitely be this product again 5
Cokie from New Mexico
I like it, because it doesn't dry my hair out or cause it to tangle.
Makes hair stiff and dry 1
KC from San Diego
This product was really frustrating to use. I would spray a light mist while I straightened sections of my hair and it literally felt like I'd sprayed glue on my hair. The last straw was using this product after I'd done a deep conditioning hair mask AND added a moisturizing leave-in conditioner in an attempt to offset the weird effect this spray has, with no luck. My hair felt completely stripped and had the texture of dry grass. I would not recommend this product and it feels like wasted money, as I barely used this twice and all it did was give me bad hair days.
