Protective oil for heat styling

Choose based on your styling routine and hair needs. The line includes lightweight serums designed for before heat tools and shine-boosting mists, plus argan and keratin-enriched formulas. If you style daily with heat, a lightweight, non-greasy option will minimize buildup; for added moisture and extra protection, formulas with keratin and various plant oils can help smooth and shield strands.

Keratin strengthens the hair shaft and can improve smoothness and manageability, while oils like olive, jojoba, and argan seal in moisture and add shine. Serums with these ingredients also help protect against humidity and environmental stress, and some blends claim protection against chlorine. This combination targets frizz control, easier combing, and a healthier-looking finish after styling.

Some serums are specifically formulated to be compatible with dyed and protein-treated hair, so they won't alter color or damage treatment. For example, a keratin-and-oil blend is designed to provide heat protection without interfering with chemical services, helping you maintain color and protein treatments while styling.

Apply a small amount to towel-dried, damp hair, focusing on the mid-lengths and ends rather than the roots. Use before blow-drying or flat-ironing to reduce frizz and add slip for smoother brushing. If you favor heavier hydration, a slightly larger amount for thicker hair can be used, followed by your usual styling routine.

Serums formulated with argan oil or a blend of keratin and natural oils excel at taming frizz and adding shine in humid conditions. For instance, argan-oil-rich serums deliver anti-frizz protection and a soft, manageable finish, while keratin-containing formulas help smooth the surface of the hair during heat styling.
