Heat protectant
Day after day, hair is exposed to numerous external factors. Regular use of heated tools like hairdryers, straighteners, or curling wands can also weaken the hair fiber. To prevent heat-induced damage and keep your hair looking vibrant, consider using a heat protection solution. Discover the secrets of this essential component in your hair care routine.
Why Use a Heat protectant?
Repeated heat exposure damages the hair by causing rapid evaporation of its moisture content, leading to dryness and fragility. Additionally, the proteins that make up the hair fiber, such as keratin, can degrade when exposed to excessively high temperatures. Regular users of heat-styling tools often notice a loss of elasticity.
Coloured or bleached hair is particularly sensitive to heated tools, having already undergone chemical treatments that weaken their structure. Without thermal protection, they lose their shine and become even more fragile. A heat protectant acts as a barrier between your hair and heated tools, reducing the risk of damage.
What is a Hair Heat protectant?
A heat protectant is a specially designed treatment to shield hair from high temperatures. Available in several forms, including sprays, creams, or serums, they aim to minimise the impact of heated tools on the hair fiber. They envelop each strand in a subtle protective layer, helping to maintain the hair's natural moisture. This shield prevents excessive heat penetration into the hair fiber.
NUXE’s Intense Nourishing Cream Huile Prodigieux® has been developed with this in mind. This leave-in cream is more than just a hair heat protectant. It is infused with fermented Camellia Rose oil combined with quinoa extract, a naturally derived ingredient. Our thermal protectant withstands temperatures up to 220°C while nourishing and repairing your hair without weighing it down. Its lightweight cream texture wraps the hair in a protective veil, providing exceptional shine. Your hair will appear smooth, soft, and adorned with the captivating fragrance of Huile Prodigieuse®.
When and How to Use Your Heat protectant?
To maximise the effectiveness of your heat protectant, adopt a complete hair routine that meets all the needs of your lengths. Before applying your hair heat protectant, indulge your hair with the uplifting power of fermented Camellia Rose oil in three steps:
1. Pre-Shampoo Nourishing Mask
Treat your hair to a true nourishment bath with this silicone-free hair mask. Apply it to dry hair, avoiding contact with your eyes. Leave it on for 10 to 30 minutes for intense repair. Rinse and proceed with your shampoo.
2. High Shine Shampoo
This milk-textured shampoo gently cleanses your hair, nourishing it without weighing it down. Apply to wet hair, massage your scalp, delight in the iconic Huile Prodigieuse® fragrance, then rinse.
3. High Shine Conditioner
Continue your hair care routine with this creamy conditioner. Apply to damp, towel-dried hair, focusing on lengths and ends. Leave for a minute, then rinse. The hair fiber is intensely nourished, detangling is made easier, and your hair shines brilliantly.
Before moving on to using a hairdryer or straighteners, apply a small amount of the Intense Nourishing Cream to your ends and lengths. Allow your hair to air dry or use a hairdryer with peace of mind: your thermal protectant is ready to take action. Of course, you can apply your Nutrition Intense Hair Care even if you don't use heated tools afterwards. At the seaside, your sun protection for your hair takes over. Spray the Moisturising Protective Milky Oil for Hair before and during swimming to shield your hair from the sun's rays, salt, and chlorine while also protecting your colour.
The hair heat protectant is a must-have if you regularly use heated tools. Thanks to its formula with fermented Camellia Rose oil, the NUXE thermal protectant provides nutrition, shine, and suppleness to your lengths. Add the Leave-In Nutrition Intense Hair Care to your Hair Prodigieux® routine for protected hair benefitting from intense care. Even after using a hairdryer or straighteners, your hair remains radiant.
