Kevin Murphy HEATED.DEFENSE 5.1 oz is a lightweight, invisible leave-in heat protection foam designed to shield hair from damage caused by blow dryers, flat irons, curling irons, and other heated or mechanical styling tools. The weightless formula provides thermal protection up to 450°F / 232°C while helping soften, smooth, strengthen, and detangle hair without weighing it down.
Formulated with Hydrolyzed Quinoa, Jojoba Seed Oil, and protective Copolymers, HEATED.DEFENSE creates a lightweight protective barrier around the hair while supporting strength, elasticity, softness, and manageability. Its nearly invisible foam texture distributes easily through all hair types, making it an excellent everyday heat protectant before thermal styling.
What It Does
Kevin Murphy HEATED.DEFENSE helps protect strands against heat-related and mechanical damage while providing lightweight conditioning benefits.
The formula offers heat protection up to 450°F / 232°C, helping defend hair during blow-drying, curling, straightening, and other hot-tool styling. Unlike heavier creams and oils, the airy foam disappears into the hair for a virtually weightless finish.
Hydrolyzed Quinoa helps support hair strength and resilience while improving elasticity and maintaining body. Jojoba Seed Oil helps soften and smooth strands, enhance natural-looking shine, and improve manageability. Protective Copolymers selectively bind to damaged areas of the hair to help protect and improve the strand.
