I have been using this protective spray during this summer heat along with the other products in this line. It protects hair from the hot sun. It doesn’t weigh down fine hair and seems to be effective as my hair color is staying perfect and my hair isn’t drying out from the heat. Useful for another degree of protection for your hair! #gotitfreechickadvisor
I was definetly excited to try this product as I have used this brand before and absolutely loved it. This product is safe for color treated hair which is always a bonus! I bleach my hair twice a year to get a gray hair look and love to tan outside so my hair is quite damaged! I have no complaint on this product the scent is great doesn’t weigh my hair down (lightweight) and my hair feel smooth and silky throughout the day! Would def recommend!
I recently received this product along with some other Joico products to test for my honest review. I have to say that I really loved this product. I used it after my shower and before styling and it left my hair feeling super soft and easy to manage. Its a great product to take on vacation as it also helped to tame my hair in the heat. Would definitely recommend.
Got this product to try for free from Chick Advisor and so glad I did. I’m a bit fan of protective products to use before I blow dry or use heated tools in my hair. Made my hair feeling extremely silky once I was done blow drying and didn’t look brittle or damaged. I found although super silky my hair still curled great afterwards and looked super healthy. Very happy with this product!
I got to try this product for free recently. I was very exited to try this daily leave in protecting spay. I curl or straighten my hair almost daily so I always use a daily spray. This product didn’t disappoint- it left my hair very soft and manageable. I would continue to use this and highly recommend it.
