Perfect Defense - Heat protection

Smoothing light weight aerosol

Light weight, smoothing. Hate the aerosol; it has a kinda burning alcohol smell -sets my hepa filter off. I also seem to go through a bottle quickly.

Adds shine and smells amazing!

Love this heat protector, works great for thick hair!

My go-to

This is forever my favourite heat protector ever. It smells amazing and it doesn’t make your hair greasy. 10/10

a must have

the smell is amazing. my go to protectant, ever since i started using i feel as it does protect my hair alot

Heavy, Grimy feel to my hair. Want to shampoo asap

I tried this multiple times. I can’t stand it. I don’t like the feel, the residue it leaves, OR the smell. For reference my hair is very thick, coarse, wavy, and naturally dry, so I use 1-2 leave-ins, serums, and oils. Literally when I shampoo, I towel dry, then add Color Wow Kale-Infused Serum, 1 or 2 leave-in spray conditioners, Color Wow Coconut-Infused Serum, followed with an oil and / or a serum, and Kenra Blow Dry Spray. My hair pretty much “drinks” it. None of these leave any feeling of residue or product at all ... just thick, silky softness. My hair is super healthy and feels like it has nothing in it. With all this, I only shampoo every 4-5 days. But the MoroccanOil Perfect Defense leaves my hair feeling - to be honest - gross. I want to shampoo asap. I can’t stand product feel in my hair, especially product that makes it feel dirty or grimy. And I do not like the smell (they would call it “scent”) at all. Yuck. Sorry but this is a big, “NO thank you!” for me.

TERRIBLE. Causes tangles and rips your hair out.

This product is SO sticky- like hair spray, just as the other one star reviews warned- so after you spray it on damp hair as instructed and try to comb while drying, your hair tangles and you’ll end up ripping it out. AWFUL! I gave it 2 tries but NEVER AGAIN! I don’t know how it has such good reviews. I’ll be returning to using L’Oreal’s heat spray for flat ironing from now on.

Meh

It’s… ok? I was expecting wonders with this product as I love moroccanoil but it left my hair feeling my ends feeling a little sticky and would end up tangling

Little sticky for me

I don’t mind it, but I don’t love it because it’s a bit sticky in my hair.

The best.

It's so good, works the best. It passed the paper / straightener TikTok burn test the best out of so many tried and tested. It smells absolutely delicious and it's a must-have for me. It also lasts a really long time! No negative effect on the hair either - it still feels soft and fresh, just smells even better!

Absolutely not.

The only good thing I can say about this product is that it does help with hair shine; however, the product smells like hairspray and feels like hairspray when it’s sprayed into your hair. Leaves hair feeling very dirty after blow drying!

Definitely worth the price!!

This spray smells amazing and makes my hair really shine! I love that you can use it on wet and/or dry hair! Definitely worth the price!!

I love love LOVE this heat protectant! I first love it because it smells so good, has the classic Moroccan oil scent. And it also doesn’t make my hair feel or look greasy/hay like. I’ve used other heat protectants in that past that give my hair a yuck feeling. This is super lightweight and does a great job of protecting!
