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 protec...

Worried

I have loved this product for years. I went to Paul Mitchell the school. I am a fellow hairstylist. And I'm concerned because on the bottle it does not say that it protects up to 450°. It says do not expose to temperatures exceeding 120 Fahrenheit. As someone in the hair industry, all heat protectan...

They changed the way the bottle looks. Even though it says it's the same thing, it's not true! Before they changed the label, the product was amazing. Super flexible but helped hold my curls you could tell your hair was being protected and it even gave some great volume Now it leaves my hair very flat, curls don't last and it feels like it's doing nothing. Like I'm just spraying air on my hair. Very disappointing! Don't waste your time or money

New Heat Styling Staple!

I was beyond impressed with this spray. I tried wand curls on my blown out 4b hair for the first time and used this. Not only does it serve as a heat protectant but the flexible hold with little to no crunch is perfection!

Cannot Get Past The Smell

DO NOT USE

This is a light weight hairspray designed with a heat protectant in it. However, I cannot get past the horrible smell. I know everyone is different but John Paul Mitchell please work on the fragrance of this product. Makes me gag when I use it because it smells like a wet, dirty dog.

Can I use this with soft style sculpting gel?

Yes, Super Clean Sculpting Gel is designed to be applied to damp hair before styling. Hot Off The Press should be used on dry hair prior to using hot tools, as it provides thermal protection and helps create a smooth, polished finish.Was this answer helpful to you

Q
Up to what temperature does this protect the hair from? It's not listed anywhere which is weird for a product that's supposed to be a heat protectant.
Asked by Eoness
Official Answer By Paul Mitchell - Brand Engage
This product is made to work our Paul Mitchell tools and can withstand at least 450°F, as that’s the max temp of tools we manufacture. Please keep in mind that you should choose the appropriate temperature for your hair type while using thermal protection. For Fragile, Very Fine hair use between 250-290 degrees Fahrenheit. Fine hair uses between 290-300 degrees Fahrenheit, Medium-Textured 330-370 degrees Fahrenheit, Thick 370-410 degrees Fahrenheit and Coarse, Very Thick 410 degrees Fahrenheit.Was this answer helpful to you
Q
Can this be used on damp hair as well? For example, before blowdrying or curling with the dyson airwrap?
Asked by Ry
Official Answer By Paul Mitchell - Brand Engage
Hot off the Press works best on dry hair. For thermal protection on damp hair, we suggested Neuro Prime or Clean Beauty Heat Styling Spray.Was this answer helpful to you
