A MUST HAVE
I was bummed IronClad was discontinued but wanted to give this a try even though it had lack luster reviews. Off the bat, the scent on this one was much less chemically compared to IronClad, which I was never a fan of in terms of scent.The scent of IronClad was suffocating at best and the scent of t...

Wouldn't Go Out of My Way to Purchase
After blow-drying my hair, I applied the JOICO Heat Hero Glossing Thermal Protector before using a curling iron. I prefer a heat protectant that is applied to wet hair. It doesn't make sense to put heat on your hair with a blow dryer and then apply a heat protector. That said, I would have been open...

Having natural hair, I found that this product was not for my hair type. I appreciate the free sample.

I have colored red hair and I take it personally how to nurture and revive my dry, overworked hair. After multiple weeks use of this product it's left me with a full revival and I'm not left feeling regret by putting more heat tools on my hair. I'm left with feel like I still have so much volume and it's actually taking a protective layer to grow my hair the way it's supposed to be naturally.

Smells fantastic & leaves hair healthy looking!

JOICO kindly gave me this HEAT HERO GLOSSING THERMAL PROTECTOR for free so that I could review it. My wife and daughter have used this product and they absolutely love it! First off, the smell is great! It is a little bit like perfume, and it smells beautiful. Then they applied it after blow drying and before they used the hair iron, and they felt it protected their hair very nicely. It definitely reduced the frizz, made it shiny and you could feel a softer texture than without the product. It was easy to spray, and it felt very lightweight. Not sticky at all. We will definitely be purchasing this JOICO Heat Hero Glossing Thermal Protector spray again! We highly recommend!!


Makes my hair feel so rough - not glossy/smooth at all

I'd always used my Tresseme heat protection spray and gave this a try, and I received it for review and I would not go out of my way to use this moving forward or go out of my way to purchase it. I don't think this did anything for my hair and was not really doing its job as a thermal protector. I always split my hair into parts and straighten/curl in little parts and this left my hair extremely dry, felt VERY rough, and it didn't give it a shine/gloss/smoothness that I would usually have when I straighten my hair or curled. I'd say the spray nozzle is great. It sprays out and captures a lot of area but the product itself doesn't work well.

The product made my hair feel like it has a coating on it. More like a hair spray than a heat protectant. It was also very drying. Definitely would not purchase.
