Abstract
There is provided a hair care composition for protecting hair that is subjected to heat styling by a hair dryer or curling device. The composition comprises two compositions that naturally separate into distinct layers but easily intermix before use. The first composition prevents the hair from overdrying or heat dryout and, thus, leaving it brittle and more susceptible to cracking. The second composition prevents the hair from physical damage such as the rubbing and wear caused by brushing or combing. Thus, the present invention provides protection from heat dryout and physical damage that are commonly associated with heat styling.
