I absolutely love this heat protectant spray! It has made a noticeable difference in the health of my hair, especially since I regularly use heat styling tools. The formula is lightweight and doesn’t leave my hair feeling greasy or weighed down. Instead, it adds a nice shine and softness while protecting my strands from heat damage. Another big plus is the scent—it’s subtle yet refreshing, not overpowering at all. I also appreciate that it doesn’t make my hair feel sticky or stiff like some other sprays I’ve tried. My hair stays smooth, frizz-free, and well-protected, even after using a curling iron or straightener at high temperatures. If you want to keep your hair healthy while still enjoying heat styling, I highly recommend this product! It’s now a staple in my routine.

For the price, this is a great quality product. The bottle is good quality and sprays well. I spray on my roots and don't get greasy/oily - this is HUGE because I have thin hair and most products make it greasy. It's lightweight and smells good. It seems to be helping my hair stay healthy. I use right before blowdrying/styling my hair and my extensions, and I can tell the difference compared to not using heat protectant and previous heat protectant with oils that I couldn't use near my roots.

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.

Since I’ve been using this, I’ve noticed less damage in my hair! I use heat frequently and needed something heavy duty to protect my hair. A lot of heat protectants I’ve used have made my hair greasy, but I don’t have that problem with this one! I’m not super fond of the texture of this spray- it’s akin to hairspray. It makes your hair sort of stiff and weighty, but after a quick brush-through, it’s mostly fine. It’s just sort of strange. The scent is fine. It’s not bad, it just smells like any other hair product, a bit chemically. Apart from a few little gripes, it’s definitely helped my hair and has become a regular product in my hair routine!

I am very impressed with this product! I needed something to protect my hair from heat and I know Chi is a reputable brand and the price is extremely affordable! I couldn’t be happier with this product! It smells heavenly & gives my hair a bit more volume & texture. I will continue to buy this product as I have already incorporated it into my routine!

I tried this heat protectant and ended up giving it 3 stars. When I used it on damp hair before blow-drying, it made my hair feel sticky and difficult to style. It was hard to comb through, which made the styling process frustrating. I then tried it on dry hair, and it was easier to manage and my hair was soft after using it but I still feel like it didn’t perform as well as I hoped. It's not my favorite, and I probably won’t repurchase, but it does offer protection. Overall, it's an okay product, just not great for my hair.

Great use for all my heat products, curling iron, strainer, etc. Smell is not to bad. Doesn’t weigh down my hair or make it greasy. Perfect protector. Price wasn’t that much in comparison.

This is a wonderful product if you're looking for a way to protect your hair from curling irons/straighteners. Spray sparingly and comb through. Use your fingers to spread product throughout. This product gave me great shine and body as an added bonus to protecting me hair from heat. It doesn't feel like cactus hair like I've read in reviews. You are using too much product if you do! Love the extra volume and shine!
