Product Claim: Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser’s Invisible Oil Heat & UV Protective Primer is a sweet-scented product that claims to control frizz and prevent breakage. Since even gentle heat styling can dehydrate the hair, many heat protection sprays and lotions also contain moisturising and hydrating ingredients such as shea butter, coconut or almond oil to boost softness and shine and reduce frizz.

While things like investing in the best silk pillow cases, hair masks, hair oils and hair wraps is always a good idea, you should really use preventative methods of protecting your hair too so that your need for all those boujee extras isn't so extreme.

Heat can damage your natural hair, but sometimes it's necessary to use a hot comb or blow dryer to straighten kinky curls.

BIOTIN-INFUSED GROWTH: concentrated formula that helps to promote healthy hair growth for results you can see AND FEEL! Coincidentally, we came across this Cantu shea butter heat protectant a couple of days ago, let’s see how protective this little bottle can be to your hair. Cantu Heat Protectant Overview Review All heat protective sprays and serums contain ingredients that slow down conduction to form a barrier against heat. Silicones such as dimethicone are a common ingredient for this reason – they reduce the rate at which heat is conducted, and also smooth the outer cuticle of the hair to allow straighteners or tongs to pass over strands without snagging or pulling. Polymers and wheat protein are other ingredients that form a barrier against heat; wheat protein has the added benefit of strengthening the hair, too.

The spray helps reduce flyaways and frizziness, helping hair cope particularly well in humid conditions. So, if you find your curled styles tend to go a bit out of control after styling, this could be the product to keep your hair looking exactly as you styled it.
