There’s a universal truth when it comes to hair care: hair always needs protection — from sun, heat, styling and chemical treatments. And while that fact will never change, what has changed is how you go about protecting it. The hair products for protection have evolved from heavy, sticky formulas into light, airy and nearly invisible treatments with HEATED.DEFENSE leading the charge.

Why You Need Hair Products for Protection

The thing about protecting your hair, and effectively your hairstyle, is that you can’t skip it. Sure you can swap wash day for dry shampoo or make due with flyaways if you forget hairspray, but heat damage is cumulative and shows signs of its impact very quickly.

Heat styling — the use of blow dryers, curling irons or flat irons — is one of the most common causes of hair damage that impacts all hair types, which is exactly why you need hair products for protection. Excessive heat styling without protection can cause dull colour, frizz, flyaways, split ends and damaged hair. For this reason, a heat protectant is essential every time you style your hair.
