Hello ladies!
I was totally bored with my straight hair, so since last few months, I have been experimenting with my hairstyle. All the heating tools used make hair really dry and damaged, so I thought of getting a good heat protection spray to avoid such damage. I bought this new Schwarzkopf heat protection spray and I love it. Read on to know why.

My Experience with Schwarzkopf Essence Ultîme Crystal Shine 220° Heat Protection:

The heat protection spray comes in a small white and pink bottle with a nice spray pump attached. Also, the spray pump can be locked with a twist which makes the packaging travel friendly.

I have pretty smooth, straight hair but after using hair styling tools, my hair tips have become a little dry, so I like to use this every time before use any heating tools (before blow drying, using a curler or before using a straightening iron). As I have long hair, I need 5-6 sprays to cover my whole hair.

The texture is watery light and it gets easily absorbed into hair. I love that it doesn’t make my hair oily or limp; neither does it make my hair crunchy or stiff. It always keeps my hair naturally soft and shiny, but doesn’t give any crystal shine as claimed. It keeps hair manageable and controls frizz also. It never weighs down my hair or my curls. Also, it gives a natural bouncy look to my hair. After using this for few weeks, I have noticed that it has really improved my hair texture. It smells good and fresh.

I have used this on dry and wet hair both and I feel it works better on wet hair. But it doesn’t provide that deep nourishment to dry, damaged hair. It can’t keep your hair shiny or frizzfree if you have extremely dry hair.

Overall, it is a budget-friendly heat protecting spray for daily use. Maybe it doesn’t work like a high-end hair spray, but still helps me a lot to keep hair damage free.
