My strands have never looked so silky.
I’m an overpacker. If there’s even a one-percent chance I’ll need something, it’s in my bag. But when I visited my parents recently, I threw caution to the wind, as well as most of my skin and hair care essentials, knowing that, really, I’d be raiding my mom’s beauty drawer all weekend. Everytime I’m home, she puts me onto something I fall in love with, so much so that I’m on Amazon ordering it before I’ve even boarded my flight back to Los Angeles. This time, it was a hair treatment that made my strands shine.
Years ago, she introduced me to L’ange’s blow drying round brush, which gives me bouncy blowouts and doesn’t fry my hair. And when I went to use it over the weekend, she recommended that I prep my hair with the brand’s Glass Hair Thermal Blowout Primer, which is now on sale for just $20 at Amazon.

The spray goes on damp hair and is meant to act as a heat protectant while adding shine and decreasing frizz; to my surprise, it delivered on every promise. Like the bottle recommends, I generously applied this all over, saturating my hair from root to tip. And because this is activated by heat, I followed up with my blow drying brush, creating a little bit of tension between the brush and my hair to get a really sleek blowout.
I use this blow drying brush weekly, and while I really love how easy it makes straightening my wavy hair, I rarely walk away frizz-free. But after starting with the Glass Hair treatment, there wasn’t a strand out of place. It was the sleekest blowout I’ve ever achieved at home, a sentiment shoppers share. One person with “thick, coarse, long, frizzy hair,” wrote that it’s the “best” at making their hair “soft and manageable,” noting that it can even withstand Florida’s humidity. And according to a fan who typically follows their blow dry with a straightener, this smoothing treatment leaves their locks so silky that they now skip that step.
What’s more? My hair really did look lustrous. Every other month I go to the salon for a gloss, and I was amazed that this $20 treatment gave me the same shine. My hair looked so healthy and hydrated—glass hair really isn’t an exaggeration—that even others noticed. And that shine lasted until I (reluctantly) washed my hair three days later.
L’ange’s Glass Hair Thermal Blowout Primer is my mom’s secret to glossy, frizz-free strands that I now swear by, so I’m grabbing my own bottle while it’s on sale for just $20. Shop similar treatments below.
