GHD Heat Protectant Review from abbzzw

Abby from abbzzw.com here.. I have been using the new GHD Heat Protectant for the past fortnight and am going to share with you my thoughts on the product.

The newly improved formula is brand new for June 2011 and has been developed to improve everything from the way it works to how it smells and even the packaging. This Heat Protection spray is suitable for all hair types and is very light and not at all oily, something I desperately need as I have a lot of hair but it is quite fine and can get greasy relatively easily. I spritz each layer before straightening and have not experienced any product buildup or oily residue, this is easily the main reason I love this product so much. It doesn't take much for my hair to look a bit greasy when it's straight but with this heat protectant I am able to protect my hair, make it smell a-ma-zing and seem to be avoiding having greasy roots by the end of the day as well. Another perk of the product?!

I'm first to admit that heat protection was one of the last things on my mind when it comes to styling my hair. I know how bad that sounds but i'm also fully aware of how damaged my hair was by not using it, especially before blow drying. But now since trying the new ghd thermal protector i'm converted!
