Philip Kingsley Daily Damage Defense Conditioning Spray

Styling United Kingdom Approx. $45

Philip Kingsley was the London trichologist, and this leave-in has been protecting hair from heat and sun since long before heat protection was a category. Elastin, sweet almond and panthenol in a spray light enough for fine hair, which most heat protectants are not.

Our verdict on the Philip Kingsley Daily Damage Defense Conditioning Spray

Most heat protectants are too heavy for fine hair. This one is not, and it handles sun as well.
