    Honestly very impressed with this product

    For wavy hair, it works great. I have tried a lot of different products for my hair (sometimes difficult) and it highlights my hair without too much volume.

    My hair never looks this good straight

    Because my hair has been so thin, dry, and damaged for years i rarely use heat on my hair. When i was selected to test the kitsch heat protectant spray i almost declined because my hair always looks terrible straight. I figured why not give it a try because if it works in my hair it will work for anyone! I was amazed by the outcome. My hair was beautiful straight, it laid flat no flyaways, and my very dry ends even looked smooth and nice. The pictures below show how curly my hair normally is and how frizzy dry my ends can look, and how wonderful the heat protectant worked to give my hair shine when I straightened it! I still don’t use heat on my hair very much but i plan to keep a bottle of this heat protectant on hand for the few occasions i will.

    Love this product!

    I love adding the heat protectant spray to my daily routine. I spray it on my hair before curling and it keeps it from getting brittle. I have fine thin hair and this keeps it looking healthy when using heat on it. Love the smell also.

    Perfect Protection

    Just what my hair needed! This great smelling spray protects my locks whether I am blow drying , straightening or curling with a hot iron. It also keeps the fuzz down.

    This has brought my waves back after years of dull flat hair.

    Okay I absolutely love this. Genuinely didnt think it would work like it has, but bought this because I never dry my hair with heat, I always leave it to air dry.

    This has totally transformed my hair with absolutely no effort. It was always a bit flat before but now always has volume and perfect waves!

    Im in the UK but will continue to buy this.

    The labubu offer is what encouraged me to try an American brand... no labubu for my daughter, unfortunately, but I will certainly buy this again!

    WOW !!!!!

    Talk about a smooth clean look and feel!!!! Smells amazing ! For the first time in months I used a hair dryer and my hair dried so smooth and no frizzies!!!! I feel like my hair dried faster too ( or maybe it’s just I forgot since it had been so long ). My hair is long and fine so protecting it from heat is a priority. When I started Kitsch products I quit using heat in order to get the maximum benefit and quit causing damage while I was trying so hard to grow longer healthier hair. Yes, there are other brands I could have tried but I built a trust with Kitsch and am so glad to see this product now available ! Thank you Kitsch !!

    Love this stuff!

    This spray is so nice! Not heavy and detangles too. Makes my hair soft and I felt it did a good job protecting my hair from the blow dryer. My hair is thin, fine and straight. This product did not weigh it down or make it greasy.

    Incredible!

    This heat protectant is incredible! I have thin frizzy hair and when I used this, I could have left it in without even using heat! It tamed my frizz so well and my hair was still soft. The added bonus when using it with heat is the amazing shine my hair got afterwards! My hair is usually a dull dirty blonde and it was so shiny and smooth when I straightened it. Which is not the norm with other heat protectants I’ve used in the past. 100% love this!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • This multitasking spray is enriched with PhytoVie® Defense, which protects hair from heat damage up to 450°F, fights frizz, adds shine, and helps repair past damage—all while keeping your style soft, weightless, and touchable.

  • Both! Spritz onto damp hair before blow-drying for all-over heat protection, or mist onto dry hair before using hot tools like curling irons or straighteners.

  • Our Air Dry Cream is intended for heat-free styling, but you can still use this product for frizz reduction and style retention benefits before heat styling.

  • By choosing heat-free styling, your scalp is not subject to high temperatures that may worsen scalp issues like dryness and irritation. (This product is not intended to be used on scalp)

  • Yes, this is suitable for low porosity hair, but because low-porosity hair can feel coated easily and a little bit of this product goes a long way, we recommend starting with a pea-sized amount and increase from there if needed.

  • Absolutely! Whether your hair is curly, straight, coily, fine, thick, or somewhere in between, this formula is designed to protect and enhance all textures without weighing hair down.

  • Nope! Our lightweight formula features Fision® EcoSil, which adds shine without buildup, so your hair stays bouncy, soft, and never weighed down.

  • Not at all! Unlike other heat protectants, ours locks in your style with flexible hold, so your hair still moves naturally.

  • Yes! Our formula is color-safe and keratin-safe, meaning it protects and nourishes treated hair without stripping or disrupting treatments.

  • Yep! We’ve ditched the parabens, phthalates, silicones, and sulfates, so you get pure, hair-loving ingredients without any of the questionable stuff.
