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.

- Q
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.

Lightweight, But Light on Results
Bumble and Bumble's Prep Detangling Hair Primer simply put is just "okay". It's one of those products that sounds like it's going to be a miracle in a bottle but unfortunately delivers subpar results. The pros, it's definitely super lightweight so it doesn't leave your hair feeling weighed down or g...

SO good! Liquid gold for my hair

I really like this product! I spray liberally on freshly washed and brushed/combed damp hair, then I blowdry. The result is hair that is so much softer than before. It feels smoother and adds some healthy shine. I am just so in love with how much softer my hair is. I have dry hair so anything that combats flyaways and frizz/split ends is wonderful and much appreciated. This spray adds that extra something special, and lasts from wash to wash. I received this product for free from Bumble and bumble for testing and review purposes.
A must have!

I used this on dry hair. I have long straight hair that tangles very easy. I love that it's not greasy, not oily and doesn't leave a residue. I recieved this product for free from Bumble and Bumble for testing and review purposes.

This Bumble and bumble Prep primer has become a staple in my hair care routine. It makes detangling so much easier and leaves my hair feeling soft and manageable without any heaviness. I love that it's a lightweight pre-styler with a vitamin boost – my hair feels healthier and looks shinier since I started using it. The spray bottle makes it easy to apply evenly throughout my hair, and a little goes a long way so the 8 oz bottle lasts quite a while. It works great on both damp and dry hair, and it doesn't leave any sticky residue. My hair is noticeably smoother and more cooperative when styling.

This detangling hair primer leaves my fine hair soft and shiny without weighing it down. I don't even have to blow dry! I received this product for free from Bumble and bumble for testing and review, but the opinions are all mine.

I used this product on wet hair that I then blow dried. I used it on wet hair and then slept on it. I used it on dry hair and... the same results. Just a beautiful, flowing, soft, untangled manageable hair. It is so easy to use and smells like a fresh rain. I am in love with this product, and my hair shows it, and everyone is noticing it! I love attention! "I received this product for free from Bumble and bumble for testing and review purposes.".
