I am 50+ years old with ethnically mixed hair. I use this ChI 44, almost exclusively on my bang. No matter how else I am wearing my hair, I am always stuck with the bang my brother "helped" me cut, when I was 5 years old. And with my hair texture, frizz, just frizz. It used to just either be puffy BIG BANG frizzy, or tight and drawn up frizz. SO, now that I found this, if I go out of the house I use it. It protects my hair from the heat & definitely helps it, to straighten in one flat iron pass . I have also, since I began using this about 6-7 years ago, been able to turn way down both my flat iron, and curling wand temperature. I spray some on my bang, comb through, hit it with some heat to detangle; then after it is straight i put a bit more CHI 44, in my hands(this is why the pump was helpful) & lightly apply to my bang. I pull my wand or flat iron through again, this time I curl it under, like a Bob, and I then turn it under; and immediately unplug the device, hold it curled, for however long my arthritic shoulder will let me, then toss it into a large open roller. Lastly, if possible, and as quickly as I can I blast it with cool air (usually the car A/C because I am usually doing this on the way to the doctors, or wherever I am going). Then I leave the curler in till I get where I am going, but 10 minutes usually does the trick. Even as i am typing this, i can't believe after all these years of hair struggles, I have what can be called a system or a routine. I have medical limitations, so I don't do my hair to leave the house every day. So, routing doesn't quite fit. This works better than anything ever has. When I am able to do steps using the CHI 44 guard, heat, and a curler, my bang drops from the curler & it is "fresh blowout bouncy". I am also sure it helps fight humidity etc. So, I am giving it 5 stars. With me health, and medications, I am always hot and humid and eventually my hair does frizz. But with age, I have come to realize, that for me, I care far more about my appearance upon my entrance then my departure. I do not think people pay as much attention to my flaws, as I worry about. And if they do, it's probably within the first few minutes of seeing me. So having a good bang entrance has really pleased me. Now I like i can throw the rest of the birds nest I call hair into a ponytail and get to enjoying a day out of the house. Lastly the smell, i am very sensitive to smells. This smells like "heat protection" it has the smell a good thermal protection shampoo or conditioner has. Not pleasant, but not sickening. Also, it does not linger. If it stayed I would not recommend it, but it fades quickly. My husband however did comment a few times in the closed car. I usually spray it before I leave the house, then heat straighten it, in the car etc. So, it is when I go to spray the tiny bit on my hands, before curling it under, that it bothers him. That is why I got a pump to try. It seems to work as well as the aerosol version, with the added benefit, that one quick pump into my hand doesn't fill the car with the scent the way aerosolizing it does/. I like having both pump and can. Recently, I started using a few spritzes from the hairline back a few inches into my pulled back hair. I hadn't tried this, in all the years since i found it, because i have neck problems, I am hesitant to use any kind of holding products for fear of having difficulty washing them out. This has not been a problem, leaves no flaking residue behind. And it does keep my ponytail neat. The can is quicker for this, but the pump works the same. I have used the iron guard with assistance, to help when straightening my whole head after shampoo. It was great. But, I have not tried this with the pump. I will update if I do. This product has helped me so much, I will keep eye out for any questions about it, that i can answer. Good luck if you are trying it for the first time.

This product works well and smells amazing! I gave myself a blowout today and my hair is smooth and shiny after using this spray. I don’t dry my hair often, but I just might now that I have this in my arsenal!

Love this heat spray. It is a good size for the money and works amazingly. Helps control frizz and hair damage! 100000% recommend for anyone who does major heat styling

I use the regular sized one at home and got this for travel purpose. If I don't apply conditioner after shampoo, my hair becomes dry when using this protectant spray, which is the reason I am taking away a star. Else it serves its purpose just fine. I experimented using it with and without conditioner and also applying oil before washing my hair, there is a significant difference in hair texture when using the spray. It is very dry when I don't use the oil before washing or the conditioner. Ok when I jsut apply oil before wash and perfect when I have conditioner after shampoo.

I like that it goes on light and holds strong. No off putting, or over whelming smell. Doesn't clog the nozzle often. Fair pricing and works great. I think this will be my new favorite.

I bought this product because of all the good reviews it has but to be honest it doesn't work for me. I have high porosity hair, the instructions say you can use it on dry or wet hair, however, if I use it on dry hair, it feels very sticky. I tried on wet hair and works better, but I have to make sure to spray it in sections as I blow dry my hair or it will have the same outcome, very sticky. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or it just doesn't work on my hair.

I absolutely love the CHI Heat Protectant Spray! It’s a total game-changer for my hair care routine. I use it every time I style my hair with heat tools, and it has made a huge difference in keeping my hair healthy and shiny. The spray goes on evenly without leaving any greasy or sticky residue. It smells amazing—light and fresh without being overpowering—and it doesn’t weigh my hair down. I also love that it doesn’t leave a crunchy texture or make my hair feel stiff after styling. Since I started using it, my hair feels smoother, and I’ve noticed less heat damage over time. It helps protect my strands from high temperatures, and it leaves my hair with a healthy, natural shine. Whether I’m using a blow dryer, straightener, or curling iron, this heat protectant spray ensures my hair stays soft and frizz-free. Overall, this is an essential product for anyone who uses heat styling tools regularly. It’s affordable, effective, and truly works to protect and nourish your hair. Highly recommend it!

Got a silk press and I was scared it was gonna leave my hair heat damaged so I used this heat protectant and it worked great my hair reverted back to it’s beautiful curls I would recommend using this to protect your curls and hair when using heat.

Mir gefällt sehr dieser Spray.

مره حبيت شكرا 🫶🧚‍♀️❤️🤝👍

I think this heat protection spray Is quite average, I haven't really noticed much of a difference to my hair but It does feel good knowing you're actually using a heat protection, the spray smells like a male's deodrant/aftershave, not the type of scent I'd like In my hair! I don't think I would buy this product again.

C'est un produit très réputé chez les personnes qui utilisent souvent des produits chauffants comme les fers à lisser, les fers à boucler ou qui font souvent des brushings au sèche-cheveux. Il est très efficace, et protège les cheveux contre la chaleur. J'aime particulièrement l'odeur fraîche du produit qui reste quelque temps sur ma chevelure.

I thought my package was lost but the seller was really sweet and helpful in helping me figure things out. The product is also good. Highly recommend:)
