Why use heat protection for your hair?
Styling tools, almost everyone has one at home. So why would you use a heat protector, especially if you only use it sporadically? It's very simple: when your hair is heated - with a hairdryer or a styling tool - the water evaporates from your hair. In itself that's not so bad, but styling tools evaporate more water than your hair can reabsorb from the air. The result of this is that your hair dries out incredibly. If the moisture content in your locks is so low, it becomes brittle. You definitely don't want brittle hair, because this makes your hair more easily damaged, which results in breakage.
And this is what happens when you blow-dry your hair. When you get your hair wet, the hair fibers swell and when you quickly dry them, they contract again. This swelling and rapid contraction causes a certain amount of pressure on the hair cuticles, causing them to break and become damaged. Even up to 2 or 3 layers deep! [source 1]. And broken cuticles mean rough, dull hair that is prone to splitting and breaking during brushing.
By wetting your hair, your hair fibers swell, then you blow-dry your hair again in a very short period of time. This causes your hair to contract quickly again. The swelling and contraction of your hair causes pressure on the hair cuticles, which damages them and eventually breaks them. And that is exactly what you want to prevent! Your now dull hair will quickly split and break, especially when brushing.
A good heat protectant will mainly protect your hair from the drying effects of heat. A common ingredient in heat protectants is glycerin, this ingredient slows down the process of water evaporation. In addition, propylene glycol is also used, because it has exactly the same effect :)
