CHI44 Iron Guard Style & Stay Firm Hold Protecting Spray, Heat Protectant & Hairspray for a Long-Lasting Hold, Sulfate & Paraben-Free, 10 Oz

This is a regular Amazon purchase of mine because it works—plain and simple. The CHI 44 Iron Guard Style & Stay is my go-to for both heat protection and hold, and I love that I don’t have to layer multiple products to get the results I want.I use it every time I style my hair with heat, and it’s never caused any damage—even with my extensions. That’s a huge win, especially since some sprays can leave them dry or stiff. This one keeps everything soft, smooth, and protected while locking in the style for the whole day.The hold is firm but not crunchy, and it doesn’t weigh my hair down or make it feel sticky. I also really like the subtle, fresh scent—it’s not too strong, but it gives that clean, finished feel after styling.If you’re looking for a solid heat protectant that doubles as a hairspray and won’t ruin your extensions, this is 100% worth it. It’s been a staple in my routine for a while now, and I keep coming back to it!

This heat protectant is perfect for me when I’m curling my hair! It definitely makes my hair stiff, almost as if I used hair spray. But my hair falls flat fast, so I actually love the hold it provides when curling! But it’s not my favorite for when I’m straightening my hair. I already have straight, thin hair! I’ve bought this once before and used it until empty and never had an issue with spraying! I think it’s functional and a good value! I also love the smell!

This is a great heat protector , it holds your style for days as well , but the directions say for use on dry hair , I sprayed each section and it was stiff, then brushed through and curled as usual , the style held up , three days later the product is holding a little of the curl. Seems like it controls a little of the oil production , but that is not a claim on the product ! I used this on my natural hair as well as hair extensions and did not leave a residue or noticeable stiff or sticky feeling , the smell is initially an aerosol smell but dries down and does not leave a noticeable pleasant or unpleasant smell very neutral. I am someone who gets very very irritated by strong smells. It will make me nauseous and dizzy and give me headaches and I didn’t even think about it.. I always look for reviews with that information because of the effect it has on me this had no effect.

This isn't really a hair spray but more of a styling aid. I like it for those hairs that resist staying in place, a shot of this and they remain where you want them to be.

Really holds well. Definitely recommend

I use on my clients for iron curls. Firm hold

Smells so good, however it doesn’t hold my curls very long. I have long thick hair and by the end of the day my curls are gone.

I love this…smells so good and protects my hair.
