HeatBounce conditioning heat protectant

The future of heat protection

Description

This leave-in conditioning heat protectant detangles, softens, and delivers deeper heat protection than ever before*—for 85% less breakage after blow drying.

Apply throughout sectioned hair, brushing through to help with even distribution. Less is more. Start small and build as needed. Hair should feel soft and tangle-free, but not coated.

Use on towel-dried hair before blow drying and on dry hair before hot tools

resilicore™ heat-shielding technology is inspired by proteins in nature that can withstand extreme temperatures. Unlike traditional heat protectants that only coat the cuticle, the size + molecular makeup of resilicore™ allows it to penetrate deeper than ever before*, into hair's inner cortex where heat damage can occur, forming a protective shield that fortifies from within.

Conditioning blend conditions, softens, and detangles even damaged hair

Created for all hair types + textures. Can be used on extensions.

Protects from heat up to 232°C

85% less breakage after blow drying⁷

got questions?
Get started here
No, HeatBounce does not need to be activated to protect from heat.
No, you can blow dry or use hot tools immediately after applying HeatBounce.
HeatBounce is powered by resilicore™ heat-shielding technology, an innovation inspired by resilin—a natural protein that can withstand extreme temperatures. Unlike traditional heat protectants that only coat the outside cuticle layer of hair, the size + molecular makeup of resilicore™ allows it to penetrate deeper than ever before*, into the cortex where heat damage can occur, forming a protective shield that fortifies from within.
*k18hair.co.uk/disclaimers
While the molecular repair hair oil and HeatBounce have heat protection benefits, HeatBounce defends against heat from the cuticle to the cortex*, going as deep as heat damage goes to help protect against colour fade, dry feeling, dullness, and breakage. The oil delivers traditional heat protection on the outer layers of hair and clinically proven damage repair.
*k18hair.co.uk/disclaimers
After shampooing, apply the K18 mask (wait 4 minutes) or DAMAGE SHIELD conditioner. Then, apply HeatBounce and AstroLift™ before blow drying or air drying. Use HeatBounce again before any hot tools. Finish with K18 oil and use AirWash™ to refresh hair between washes.
Apply HeatBounce every time before you apply heat, including if you switch between blow drying to hot tools.

    Amazing product for damaged hair

    My hair was dry and damaged from chemical color. I have used K18 reconstruction for 5 shampoos and can see a huge difference in dry brittle and fuzzy hair to smith more hydrated hair. Highly recommended!

    Heat Bounce conditioning heat protectant

    This stuff is the best heat protector I have ever used. It smalls heavenly like all of their products. This is a weightless formula it leaves your hair feeling so soft and moisturized. My hair literally feels so voluminous and incredible. I have a lot of hair but it’s very fine. This doesn’t weigh it down at all. K18 has saved my hair!!

    Amazing find! Even better with the hair mask!

    Amazing! Love the heat protectant and the hair mask! It’s been transformative for my frizz prone hair (in the south too). I have a TON of hair products and these two are quickly becoming my favorites and will probably replace all others
