Summary: Iron Guard
Comment: I have just recently started straigtening my hair on a regular basis, so I bought this product to help protect my hair from getting to damaged. I really don't know if it works, but it does tend to get the hair pretty wet in spots and it makes your hair steam a lot when you flat iron it. If they made the product in an aerosol (sp?) can, I think it would work better.

Summary: smells like a man's product.
Comment: I can't tell for sure if this actually works, but I use it anyway when I straighten my hair with the CHI (although you don't need to own the CHI to use this). However, it smells like men's cologne. Does anyone else have that problem? I looked all over the bottle to see if it is gender specific, but nope.. unisex I guess. So... I give it 3 stars because I get a little self conscious about using it, and try to cover it up with other hair products. That defeats the purpose of using it though! Either way, not a bad product, can get a little heavy if you spray it too close to your hair.

Summary: Drying for your hair!
Comment: I bought this product thinking that the Chi straightener was amazing so all their products must be. However, I noticed that my hair seemed dryer after use and not protected from split ends. I even discussed the product with my hairdresser who agreed that she found it was drying and affected the look of some of her clients hair and was throwing it away and going back to her original brand of choice (which of course I have forgotten). Plus, and this is a personal thing, I think it smells like something in men's cologne. I am still in the process of looking for an amazing protectant option.

Summary: Smells like cheap men's cologne
Comment: Horrible. This product is WAY too strongly fragranced. After just a couple of sprays, I could barely breathe. Same with the several other products I bought from this line. I ended up giving them all away to a friend.

Summary: Really does make a difference
Comment: I bought this product after doing tons of research on flat irons. I was so paranoid that I would end up damaging my hair, but loved the look that a flat iron achieved on my short, prone to random waviness, locks. I've used the thermal guard almost every time I use the flat iron and my hair is in fantastic condition. Granted, I do let it go au natural on the weekends and whenever possible, but still end up flat ironing at least three to four times a week. On the days I don't use the thermal guard, I notice that my hair seems frizzier and doesn't have the healthy bounce that usually accompanies heat styling. While this product will never replace my beloved though discontinued Thermasilk Heat Guard, due to its sticky texture that really only makes it suitable for direct heat applications, its day-to-day performance ranks it as one of my styling "Must Haves." The only detractor...and it's a personal one...is the smell. Others rave about its scent, but I'm put off by the strong aroma of men's cologne or aftershave that this product has. As such, I always make sure to style my hair early in my morning routine so as to allow it to dissipate some before applying my own feminine perfume.
