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...

I used this product for the first time before I worked a promo tonight, so I had to wash, dry, and style my hair. At first, I started th spray it on my hair before I blowdried it, but then I read that it needs to be used on dry hair. So, I dried my hair, then used it once my hair was dry, before straightening it. It sprayed on nicely, but my hair didn't feel as soft as it does when it's natural or as soft as it does when I use a product with silicon in it. I did not notice any extra shine either. Now, I did work at the front door of a bar in Houston where it was very humid and my hair didn't frizz as much as it probably would have without something in it, so it may have done something for humidity. But, all in all, I wouldn't repurchase. I do have long, thick coarse hair. Someone with a different hair type may have different results, as well.

I would buy again

I am extremely particular about heat protectants because I'm so worried about heat damage. This definitely protects my hair from the heat but I can't give it 5 stars because it doesn't leave my hair as silky as my other go-to heat protectant. Would probably buy again, though!

**Headline: A Reliable Defender: My Take on Heat Hero Glossing Thermal Protector** So, I've been using this Heat Hero Glossing Thermal Protector before straightening my hair, and I gotta say, it's pretty solid - I'd give it a 4 out of 5. It does what it promises, keeping my hair safe from the heat without making it feel heavy or greasy. I've noticed my hair looks smoother and shinier after styling, which is a big win for me. Only thing is, on super humid days, it's not as bulletproof as I'd like. But overall, it's easy to use and doesn't break the bank, so it's definitely sticking around in my routine.
Does the job!

I used this mostly before blow drying, since I haven't had an occasion to go all out styling my hair. I do have an event this weekend so I'm excited to try it then. But I do like it a lot! It doesn't leave my hair feeling crunchy or weird, and I haven't noticed my hair showing any head damage so I'll continue using it. The only thing I don't like about it is the fragrance, but it's not horrible, it just smells very hair salon-y haha
Does what it needs to do

I have semi-straight hair, as a result, I like to use heat to fully straighten my hair. I like the nozzle of the spray, it sprays the product very finely throughout my hair. The product keeps my hair straight throughout the day, even after I wake up the next morning (usually it would be dented in the morning). However, it comes with the cost that it feels like there's hairspray in my hair. When I comb my fingers through my hair there's some slight resistance, not as though my hair is silky smooth. Although I can imagine this being good if you're trying to hold a curl instead. What I'm a little sad about though is that my hair is shiny or glossy after use, it just look like normal hair.
