Chi Silk Infusion because it's alcohol free, gives me amazing shine and smoothness and it smells really great.
 
I started out with the Fantasia IC serum in the pink bottle. It was good as heat protectants go. I switched, however, to the V05 Miracle Mist and am in love with it. The smell is so good like candy and it makes my hair silky and light.

I still have more than 1/3 of a bottle full of Silk Elements Heat Protectant Spray because I only use direct heat once in a blue moon. I like the fact that it's lightweight and the smell is nice and not overpowering. I'm going to have to wait to use it up before I try anything else in order not to encourage PJism :grin:

This is what i use and i use the silk groom serum for shine. Oh ive tried ALL the ones listed in the poll with no positive results.


Has anyone ever tried Kiehl's Heat-Protective Silk-Straightening Cream? It looks really good.

I like the Herbal Essences Straightening Mousse on towel dried hair - then I add the Redken Heat Glide onto my dry hair concentrating on roots (reversion) and ends. I like the Chi also and I use Tresemme for mid-week touch-ups, like if I bump my hair or throw it in rollers real quick and pop under the dryer.

I think using a spray/mist helps my hair retain a bit more moisture.

I just found my best heat protectant. Its a combo of CHI Silk Infusion with Redken Heat Glide. I just put a drop of the CHI with a few pumps of Redken in a top, mix it and use it through out my dry hair after moisturizing and then flat iron it.

My hair has never been straight and breakage free after flat ironing. So these two mixed together is my favorite.

Ooooh, this sounds like a great mix.

I'll have to try this! Thanks.

Beyond the Zone Turn up the Heat....$6.99 at Sallys....but use it sparingly!!!
Spray on after drying hair but b-4 flat ironing/curling. (Sometimes I just skip the iron and just curl it...lazy!)
I like to use 1/2 squirt per part of hair being flat ironed. Everytime I part, I 1/2 squirt, comb thru and iron.
Love the smell (like berries and candy), now weigh down, high shine. DOesn't leave hair oily
Great stuff!
That is so true!:yep:
 
Is oil mixed with a little moisturiser a good heat protectant?

I was thinking to mix my olive oil moituriser in the tub with some jojoba oil and use that.

What do you think ladies?

Good question....I was always under the impression that oil is a No-No for heat styles...:perplexed

i've been using and liking a combination of Nexxus Protexx and Mizani Therma Strength serum. I spray my whole head lightly before I blowdry with the nexxus, and when I flat iron my sections, i apply a small amount of the mizani.


i'd love to try the Chi silk infusions, but it's a little pricy for such a small amount of product... imma have to wait on that

I use chi silk infusion for setting and when I flat iron my hair. I love it it smells nice and doesn't leave your hair feeling heavy or weighed down.
