This is actually the first heat defence hair product that I've ever used, and I must say that I am incredibly pleased with the result! I started to look for a product like that ever since I found that my hair was starting to really suffer from the frequent blowdrying. With some lifestyle changes, I have ended up washing my hair really late at night recently (really unhealthy too, I know!) and as much as I can, I try to blow-dry my hair so that I won't have to sleep with damp hair. Unfortunately, soon this meant that my already dry hair (as I've rebonded it a few times in the past few years) was starting to look extremely frizzy, dry, and unhealthy. I later found this ...  Read the complete review

As I have rather thick and slightly wavy hair I end up straightening it most days, and sometimes twice if I am going out that evening, and all that heat will quickly damage my hair especially as it is bleached. In order to prevent my hair from becoming damaged I use a heat defence, I'm not loyal to one particular brand and will often go for whatever is on offer at the time, the latest one I purchased was Dove Damage Therapy Heat Defence, I have used Dove hair products in the past and have always been pleased with the results and the effect they have on my hair so I was sure that the heat defence was going to be the same. As you will see the picture of the ...  Read the complete review

I have long hair which doesn't look great when left to do its own thing, so I often use heated appliances on it, whether that be the hairdryer, straighteners or heated tongs/rollers. Of course all the heat can take its toll on the hair, so where possible I try to use heat protection sprays to keep it in good condition. I purchased the Dove Damage Therapy Heat Defence protection mist in Tesco. They only had two different heat sprays available and this one was the cheaper of the two which is why I went for it. I am reluctant to pay a lot for products like this as I am usually sceptical as to how well they are working. The spray comes in a pearly white ...  Read the complete review

I have very long red hair and like to straighten it everyday. I have done this for over 7 years, so as you can imagine my hair isn't in the best of conditions. The particular brand of hair straighteners I use (Genie) reach 240 degrees, which I believe is hotter than GHD's, so we are talking serious heat here. Previously I had never used any sorts of heat protection spray on my hair and it was only on the advice of my hairdresser that I began to use such products, as she informed me that my straightening was leaving my hair brittle and that it was snapping! Not good! Not pleased with the diagnosis, I have since used heat protection sprays on my locks and at ...  Read the complete review

This is the heat defence spray I use with the Remington straighteners I reivewed earlier. I bougth this a few months ago when it was on offer at Boots for £1. This comes in a 150ml spray bottle which normally costs £1.99. It is described as a heat activated shine and protect mist. The idea is that you spray twice onto a large section of hair before you straighten it. The spray protects it from the hot ceramic plates which if you used on naked hair if you like, would damage your hair and leave it dry and frizzy. You can also just spray this over wet hair before you blow dry as well to give you even more protection. I generally just use this before ...  Read the complete review
