Spray primer evenly and liberally (you can't use too much) onto damp or dry hair and work through.
From the Pros: Applied too much styler (think pomade, think gel)? We've been there. Spray Prep Primer to the area and either towel-blot or comb through to smoothe and detangle.

Is it safe to use before heat styling your hair ? (Blow drying clean hair)
- Asked by shayyyy
- Official Answer By Bumble & Bumble USThe Bumble and bumble Prep Primer is a light weight option to use on freshly washed or dry hair to prep before apply your styling products. If you are needing a thermal protection option we recommend the Bumble and bumble Hairdresser's Invisible Oil Heat Protectant Leave In Conditioner Primer.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
I have fine, wavy, frizzy hair. I have used Prep spray together with the Thickening spray. Should I use the Heat Shield Thermal Protection mist as well? if so, in what order?
- Asked by DiDi
- Official Answer By Bumble & Bumble USWe are so glad you asked! You can use the Heat Shield Thermal Protection Mist with your regimen on dry hair. This mist protects dried hair against heat tools (up to 450 degrees), repairs damage, and helps prevent breakage.. I recommend using the Prep Primer, and Thickening Spray on damp hair before blow drying. For second day hair, spritz the Heat Shield Thermal Protection Mist on dry hair before heat styling.Was this answer helpful to you

Wonderful for creating texture
Prep works excellent as a layering product for texture and volume. My hair is poker straight and very fine, and I can actually get my hair to hold curl with Prep. My hair doesnt fall flat throughout the day either, which is great.
Most Helpful Critical Review
Probably good, but not for my hair. Prefer HIO primer.
Probably great for some hair types, but this seemed to dry out my hair. Perhaps I wash too often or am just getting older, but I preferred the sample of HIO primer, which also seemed to give a good base but my hair wasn't as flyaway at the end. I tried as a refresher on Day 2 as well, but I still e...

I've been using this primer for over 20 years. I've got baby fine hair that tends to be oily on the crown, dry on the ends. This unifies my hair's porosity and helps other products work their best. In winter, when I'm drier over all, I blend this with the HIO primer for a light, but rich drink.

After years of searching I finally found it!! A detangler spray perfect for very fine hair. Plus it adds shine without making my hair look oily or greasy. It's a game changer.
Not just for fine hair!
This primer detangler works great and smells amazing! I have thick, naturally curly hair and it works great for me, even though the bottle says for fine hair. I pair it was B&B Don't Blow It Thick Hair Styler. Leaves my hair, soft shiny and curly and not sticky or crunchy. Definitely recommend.
My Hair's BFF for years
I have fine hair but ALOT of it. This detangles and gives a little lift. I use a few sprays right out of the shower daily. I've tried less and more expensive alternatives but always come back to this product. It has been my go to for about 10 years. My only complaint is I can only order it on line. I will add I love all the BB products have not found a bad one yet.
I wish this was silicone free

I used to like this product but since going silicone free with my new products I don't like the way it works with my hair. I love the smell and wish it came without silicones as this would pair amazing with the new Seaweed shampoo and conditioner. I prefer light sprays to detangle vs a cream in that line.
