To keep your hair looking great and hydrated,  the most import thing in your bathroom is a good Heat Protector. Often overlooked Heat Protectors are a must when using Straightening Irons, Wands or Dryers on your hair.

Apply a Heat Protector such as Shu Uemura's Camillia Oil or Pureology's 21 Spray, before you dry the hair. Then re-apply before before using your irons or wands.

Heat protectors not only protect the hair from damage caused by styling tools, but treat your hair at the same time. Our Hair Experts at Yoshiko are able to guide you to a product most suitable to your hair.
