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...

A must have for those who use hot tools

Hair Type Very Curly Hair

If you're one to use flat irons, curling iron/wands, heated rollers then this is for you. Spray on each section after blow drying before using your iron. Gives protection and memory.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Works really well with most hair textures. Has a pretty pleasant smell and is pretty light spray. Quick drying, great for thermal styling and has humidity resistant formula. Also can be used as a hairspray to lock in your style.

My Holy Grail for Hot Irons

Submitted 2 years ago

By Hair H

From Denver, CO

I wear human hair wigs, and sometimes curls just don't hold. By the end of the night, my hair is flat. With this product, my curls last for 3 days! Feels like hair spray but has a soft powder texture. That hold though… kiss kiss. I spray each section then COMB/BRUSH the product through until product has dried. NEXT I curl or flat iron. I pin each curl in place and let the curls set until entire head of hair is cold to the touch. Holy smokes, it curls so well that the curls stay in place! I have to unroll each curl after taking out the hair pin. Hair stays soft, hold is flexible, and my hair has never looked so PERFECT. I get compliments non stop. 12/10 and ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10 stars. I will never switch.

I used the PM spray Heat Seal. Loved it but it was discontinued. Anyone know what replaced it! It was used on damp hair not dry.

I bought this today and tried it out. It literally leaves absolutely no shine and left my hair feeling dry. Was not smooth when passing a flat iron. Sticky and has an off putting scent. Will be returned.

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
