Happy Monday! :)
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
I spent mine trying to practice new hairstyles -- I rarely use flat or curling irons because I'm scared of the damage it will do to my hair. And that is why I am so happy to find got2b's
Guardian Angel Gloss Finish Flat Iron Balm.
$5.99 @ Walgreens
Formulated with proven 425°F heat protection plus patented combined styling support. There's no more need to go any hotter. You crave the stick straight styles, but it's such hard work, and oh, the damage done...
This flat iron straightening balm:
-Moisturizes and insulates your hair from flat iron frying
-Provides long-lasting sleek, frizz-free locks with luminous shine effects
-Forget the styling sins of the past, your hair's flat-out invincible now
Directions:
Hold bottle 8" - 10" from hair. Spray dry hair in sections prior to flat ironing. If spray nozzle clogs, run under hot water.
This is a really great product to have, especially if you flat iron your hair often.
And it also works well with curling irons and hair dryers.
It smells good.
It makes my hair soft and shiny -- I can really tell that it does its job.
It leaves just a little bit of residue on my flat iron (which is good).
The only negative thing about this flat iron balm that I can think of is I had a bit of a hard time opening the cap -- be careful! I almost spilled mine, haha. ;)
I have naturally straight hair and sometimes there's really no need for me to flat iron it -- because of that I can't really say for sure if it makes straightening your hair easier (since it's relatively easy for me).
BUT, I've read many reviews that say this product does make straightening wavy/curly hair so much easier -- it makes your hair sleek and easy to manage.
Right now, I am loving this flat iron balm.
And I think it's worth a try -- it works well and is so affordable! :)
Have you used got2b's Guardian Angel Gloss Finish Flat Iron Balm? How did it work for you?
What brand do you use?
Have a great week, guys! :D

i don't use a flat iron much, but thanks for the review. i'm glad you like the balm.
ReplyDeleteI have my hair straightened now and its the best thing I did for my unruly mop but this balm looks great.
ReplyDeleteI only straighten my hair like once or twice a year (if that)...so I don't have a brand.
ReplyDeleteI love my flat iron, but I do try not to use it more than a couple days a week because I too am afraid of the damage to my hair, so I must try this.
ReplyDeleteFash Boulevard-- thanks!
