Question:

What types of products should I use to prevent heat damage when I straighten my hair?

Answer:

You should use a heat protecting thermal spray and a light shine spray or serum to prep the hair prior to using heat. Paul Mitchell Heat Protectant Spray and Pravana Nevo Hydra Pearls are good products to try.
