It’s about the protectant’s coating ability of something as fragile as paper. Paper is flammable so if the heat protectant can help it from burning that’s notable enough. It’s an on alternative to burning real hair
Noooo…. Not Tressame!! Seriously like no protection at all? I have like 4 bottles of it because a Walmart near me is closing so I bought 4 bottles… so disappointed. Thanks for the video and the enlightenment!
It is possible that there was residual product on the flat iron each time you tested a receipt? So the 3rd or 4th try will seem like it is protected more when it’s just more and more product.
I'm a straight natural (no flat iron, just blow dry only), so I love Kenra leave-in which works beautifully. I wash my hair every 2-3 weeks, and my curls come back lovely each time! 🥰
Another test is the Q-tip test. You did the Q-tip in the heat protectant and light the tip on fire. If it burns badly, the heat protectant does not work. If it does not burn or barely burns, then it works.
I think its the products being used for our hair texture. Try more of the black owned brand products that make these products for our hair like mielle, shea moisture, mane choice, kaleidoscope, etc. Mielle works great
maybe use regular paper towel or a cotton towel next time because the die (ink) will lie. My grandmother tested the pressing comb on a paper towel before doing my hair. Also the heat protector is absorbed into the cuticle and air or blow dried depending on product. ..that does not mean we can overload our hair with heat and ladies use our God given common sense and keep our hair safe. I do not recommend spraying a heat protector on your hair that is water based and then flat iron your hair right away. Please make sure the product dries first. There are non water based heat protectors that may be different but I recommend a low heat blow dry or air so hair can absorb any heat protection.
I see thanks. Then it will still be better to test it on normal paper? Since thermal paper reacts fast to heat. Just my opinion, for the next experiment so there is comparison 😂
I was letting yall conclude what ya wanted to lol! Nah towards the end I said I was on the fence about some but felt strongly that hair food and silk blow out both work. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.
I really like color wow and it’s a 10 bc they are intended to fully wet the hair and not weigh it down. It’s heard good things about the L’Oréal one which is also ok to fully saturate the hair.
I need you to know that she used thermal paper a special paper used for this kind of testing not regular paper you may want to repeat this with thermal paper to get an accurate representation of each product's performance ❤❤
Mine was thermal paper too babe. The majority if not all receipts are printed on thermal paper. You can easily test it and I made sure all of the my receipts fell under that category. Thanks for checking tho ❤️
liquid will boil when u heat it causing bubbles in hair. i have no idea how heat protectant can do anything if you think about it logically. the way thermal receipts work is that the heat wil darken it. when you wet it it's providing a barrier to warm up first, thus once dry on the second pass it darkens. it might also be forming a barrier to the paper. but water goes INSIDE our hair which is what causes an issue once heated. Also those are loaded with BPA so i hope you washed your hands after (when alcohol comes in contact with it it's way worse)
