does this serve as a heat protectant too? thank you.

it does serve as a thermal protectant. I noticed my hair air dried faster when I used this, anyway. Since it is designed to resist humidity, it sheds water very well and speeds drying time. This is doubly true if you use the control freak conditioner as well.

It does radiate a great deal of heat at a full burn. I would recommend using it unless you are not worried the heat deflection.

There was no obvious heat buildup as opposed to other mattress protectors, and you can sleep directly on it if terry cloth isn't uncomfortable for you...but please know it does not last very long if you have a child who wets the bed. My mattress is RUINED because this thing only lasts a few washes.

I would do that with caution. Using as a heat shield would be very temporary. The blanket is designed to prevent welding spatter or cutting slag from burning flammable materials. I think red heat from a torch would eventually get thru.

Nothing will restore brittle hair:( This helps hair look healthy and adds moisture to hair which can prevent breakage. Its a great heat protector but thats all

Yes. I use it to keep mold from forming on my 25 foot sail boat. But it does generate heat so you will need to take that into consideration.

I would assume it could be used as an additive. It becomes pliable and soften with just the warmth of your hands.

I applied this to the inside of my devices. I would keep it away from anything of significant heat, but it should be fine for just that purpose

Yes-that is what I use it on-takes a little longer to heat, but works just fine-I would definitely buy another!!

I didn't purchase this for a heat reducer but more for privacy and to keep out the bright light. I'm sure it helped some, but I can't the amount.

I have seen some youtubers do this, but I would couple with a heat protectant as well. I know I do :)

I have the cricket titanium and I don't use a heat protector. However, I only straighten hair occasionally, not everyday. Don't know if that would make a difference.

I did not try to use any heat protectant. So, I cannot tell you if there will be any effect. The only thing I can tell you is that the instructions are clear about using the machine with dry hair.

i have not tried it, even though it says so. Also the product retains only 1/5th of the heat . If some one can buy from me i will sell it. Not really impressed with the product

Always use a thermal protectant..ALWAYS..otherwise it's like the same as a curling iron

Yes, you can use it to keep things warm. It has an infinite control that goes to very low heat.

Yes. It actually reduces evaporation even better than heating. However, it does raise the temp as well.
