Anyone whose hair has been weakened by colour, lightening or regular hot-tool use and breaks more easily than it used to, but who still wants body and a styled finish rather than flat, heavily conditioned lengths.

It suits people who would rather build the care step into their blow-dry than add a separate rinse-out treatment, and it works for both salon finishing and everyday use at home.

Damaged hair usually forces a trade-off: treat it with something rich and lose volume, or style it with sprays and do nothing for the breakage. This spray is Sebastian's answer to that. It pairs bond-building care with a flexible-hold styling polymer, so the step that preps your blow-dry is also the step that looks after weakened lengths. Used with the No Breaker Leave-In Cream as a system, Sebastian reports up to 99% less breakage.

Shake the bottle before each use.

Spray evenly over damp or dry hair, covering the lengths you want to strengthen and lift.

Blow-dry and style as you normally would. For Sebastian's system result, layer it with No Breaker Bonding & Styling Leave-In Cream.

What works well:

• Treatment and styler in one bottle, so a damaged-hair routine does not need an extra step before the blow-dry
• Can go on damp or dry hair, which makes it handy for touch-ups between washes
• Adds body and smoothness instead of weighing hair down the way a rich mask can

Things to know:

• Sebastian's 'up to 99% less breakage' figure is for the full No Breaker system compared with a low-conditioning shampoo, not for the spray used alone
• Contains a silicone (amodimethicone), so it is not a fit for silicone-free routines
• Scented, with listed fragrance allergens such as linalool, geraniol and hexyl cinnamal, plus methylparaben
