A miracle for me...I love this stuff...Plus I do not blow dry my hair nor do I heat style it daily and this product is used on damp hair so personally for me just a heat spray would work better but overall this would be a great product if u do blow dry and style ur hair after showers...I have tried using a thermal protector on my hair before but I was super turned off because I found it coated my hair and made it look and feel greasy even after a wash

Wanted to love it...So worth the money...I don't use heat on my hair very often, as I prefer to let it air dry, but I like to use Hot Toddy when I do blow dry it or use a flat iron/curling wand...However I find that I get the best results when I apply it to wet hair (which I believe is its' intended use anyhow)

I would buy again...I loved this tool...I use the Bb glow thermal protection mist everytime I curl or straighten my hair, I love the smell (my hair smells like honey after in a good way), I love how healthy, and soft my hair looks and feels afterward, it even gives it a nice shine too...I have been using this product for about a month now and I can really tell that it is doing what it says it does "heat protectant" it doesn't leave a gross buildup and I feel as if my hair straightens all the same
