Hot Head Thermal Hair Care Review

Everyone needs one of these no matter your hair texture, type, or length you need one. Deep conditioning regularly is an essential step towards healthy hair, the Hot Head Thermal Microwaveable Deep Conditioning Cap makes the process so much easier, and you look cute while doing it might I add. My Babe gave this to me this past Christmas after I raved and raved and RAVED about it. You can pick this up over at Etsy.com for $29.95. I first saw Teaundra from Youtube using this and she swore by it so I did my own research on it, I was sold. I have a hood dryer, but it's soooo much work to get it out, set it up and then have to put it back just to take it out again later in the week (yes, I'm lazy and I deep condition twice a week). Now that I have my Hot Head I eliminated that whole process, all I have to do is pop this bad boy in the microwave for 2 mins and it's ready to go.  It stays hot for up to 45 mins to an hour. 

"It is very important to perform regular deep conditioning treatments for optimum hair health. However, without heat the typical deep conditioning treatment can only do so much to improve the quality of your hair. This is because the hair cuticle is typically closed, so the conditioning treatment is only able to work on the surface of the hair shaft. The results are minimal and superficial when compared to a heat enhanced deep conditioning treatment. When heat is introduced during a hair treatment the cuticle will open for an extended period of time. This allows the deep conditioner to penetrate the hair shaft and really work to repair your hair from the inside out." (Straight from the etsy.com page)

I know you're probably asking "Ari, how does it get hot?" Let me put you on. You see that sunflower shape? Well those pockets are filled with reusable flaxseeds that generate heat when you put it in the microwave. Flax seeds are flower seeds, opposed to grain. They contain 30-40% oil which remains inside the seed to be warmed again and again. Other products loose their ability to retain heat as the water cooks out of them over time. Flax seeds provide a gentle, moist heat which promotes healing. So not only is it reusable, it's also environmentally friendly. 

Ready for the fun part? It's reversible!

The inside is made of terry cloth and cotton which also helps trap the heat inside to really get that thermal penetration to your strands and add to your deep conditioning process. If you're not feeling one side, go head and flip it to the other. As great as this baby is I have to hit you with some cons.

1. You can ONLY purchase this online. Now if you're like me and you prefer to pick things up on the ground or locally that can be draw back. 
2. It's not machine washable.Although it's not machine washable you can spot clean it with a little detergent and warm water. So it's like a 50/50 toss up.

There are so many different styles to choose from and she also has the reusable plastic caps that you can add to your cart. I normally just pick mine up from the beauty supply store, but when I received mine for Christmas my Babe did give me the Hot Head reusable plastic caps.
