KEVIN.MURPHY HEATED.DEFENSE: Lightweight Heat Protection Foam for All Hair Types (Pack of 2)

Overview

Meet HEATED.DEFENSE, a weightless leave-in foam designed to shield hair from high-heat styling. Engineered to withstand up to 232 C / 450 F, this formula aims to reduce heat-related stress during blow-drying, curling, or straightening. The foam texture coats strands without weighing them down, leaving a smooth, pliable base for your style.

Designed for all hair types

Ideal for every texture from fine to coarse, HEATED.DEFENSE doubles as a detangler and smoothing agent. Its light dispersion ensures even coverage across lengths, so you can build protection without heaviness. This makes it suitable for shorter cuts, long down-dos, or textured looks, helping you maintain natural movement while styling.

Active ingredients that support healthy styling

Key components include Jojoba Seed Oil, which nourishes and helps seal moisture, and Hydrolyzed Quinoa, known for its strengthening properties during heat styling. The result is a protective veil that adapts to heat tools and mechanical styling, supporting resilience as you create texture and shape.

Formulation and ethics

In addition to performance, HEATED.DEFENSE is sulfate- and paraben-free and cruelty-free. The easy-to-distribute foam works across hair types and can be used before heat tools, during air-drying, or for post-style touch-ups. This pack includes two 150 mL / 5.1 fl oz tubes for convenience.

Real-life use cases

• Daily blow-drying with added shine and reduced frizz, even on unruly sections.
• Styling with curling irons or flat irons for defined waves or sleek finishes without weight.
• Quick touch-ups to refresh style and re-activate the protective layer between wash days.

What to expect

• Lightweight feel: no heavy residue, preserving natural movement.
• Detangling benefits that streamline brushing and styling.
• Support for color-treated or chemically processed hair through gentler protection routines.
