Using the right products to protect our hair from heat can make a huge difference when it comes to maintaining the health and beauty of our hair. In this post, we will explore the importance of heat protection, give you practical advice and tips to protect your hair, and recommend some of our amazing products. So let's dive in!

Why is thermal protection important?

Heat styling is a common part of our beauty routine. We use curling irons, straighteners and hair dryers to create different hairstyles. But what many of us don't realize is that heat can cause damage to our hair. Here are some reasons why heat protection is so important:

  1. Preventing damage: Heat can cause hair to become dry, brittle and easier to break. By using heat protection, you can create a protective barrier that reduces the risk of damage.
  2. Preserving the color: If you dye your hair, you probably want the color to last longer. Heat protection can help preserve the color and prevent premature fading.
  3. Reduces frizz: Heat can dry out hair and make it more prone to frizz. By using heat protection, you can retain moisture in your hair and reduce frizz.

How to use heat protection properly

Now that we understand why thermal protection is important, let's go through some practical advice on how to use it properly:

  1. Choose the right product: There are different types of heat protection, such as sprays, serums or creams. We recommend our Nourishing Heat Protection.
  2. Apply evenly: Spray or distribute the product evenly over your damp or dry hair. Make sure to cover all parts, from roots to ends.
  3. Use the right temperature: Adjust the heat on your styling tools to a lower temperature. It is not necessary to use the highest setting to achieve the desired result.
  4. Styling technique: Keep the styling tool in motion when using it on your hair to avoid overexposure on a particular part.
  5. Moisturize: Remember to moisturize your hair regularly with hydrating products to prevent dryness and damage from heat.
