Is it me or is it hot in here??

Hey y'all! Just wanted to see how you guys were doing; how's everyone's weekend?? Well I wanted to review another product for you guys and this one is not for the face but rather it's for the hair!

It's the Garnier Fructis Style Sleek and Shine Flat Iron Perfector Straightening Mist with Argan oil. It says it's made for a 48-hour straight finish and protects against heat, leaving the hair smooth and shiny. 

Let's just start off with describing what type of hair I have. At the moment, my hair is medium length and it is neither too thick nor too thin, but rather is right in the middle. The trouble is that it gets greasy pretty quickly (within like 1.5 days) so I've always been wary about using oils or any kind of product with oils in my hair because I am always worrying about the grease factor. That's one of the reasons I really liked this product - because it did not leave my hair greasy! I love to straighten my hair and I have never used a heat protectant before because I never really knew about them. But when I started watching vlogs and realized that I needed to start using some because I didn't want my hair to be damaged.

This product did exactly what it said it would. I sprayed it into my dry (not damp, and a side note, NEVER flat iron your hair when it's damp or wet because that's like one of the worst things you could do to it!) hair and immediately flat ironed the hair and it made my hair beautifully shiny and silky smooth. Usually when I straighten my hair I have ridiculous amounts of flyaways and, in general, little baby hairs that won't stay down but rather start sticking up in the randomest places. This product (even though it has argan oil in it!) left my hair silky smooth but not weighed down or greasy, and really combatted frizz (which is another problem I have, even after I straighten my hair).

Another thing I really liked about this product is that even though the next morning I washed my hair and, therefore, washed the product out, because it has the oil in it, the oil was absorbed into my hair making it super smooth and soft to the touch! (I didn't use conditioner that morning so I really noticed a difference that this product made).

Overall, I think this product is really good to use especially during the summer months when it's super humid (like right now it's really humid in the area I live because we're surrounded by trees - everywhere!). I also used it today when my sister curled my hair for me (we were bored haha) and it made the curls shiny and smooth and beautiful. Hope you guys found this review helpful and I'd be glad to review any other products if you have any suggestions/requests! Have a wonderful rest of the week!
