This set is for someone who blow-dries and flat irons to get a smooth, straight finish and wants a matched pair for the job. It is especially relevant to medium to thick, coarse or frizz-prone hair, which is where KMS positions the Straightening Creme, while the Quick Blow Dry spray is listed for all hair types.

It also works as a gift for anyone who regularly styles with heat, since both products are designed for hot-tool routines.

A smooth blowout usually comes down to two things: taming texture before the heat and getting through the drying stage efficiently. This set covers both with products from the same line, so there is no guesswork about layering. The creme adds shaping and heat protection, the spray cuts drying time and reduces friction, and together they are designed to keep frizz and humidity in check for days.

1. Towel-dry hair.
2. Apply the Therma Shape Straightening Creme and comb through.
3. Spray the Therma Shape Quick Blow Dry onto the hair as the last step before blow-drying.
4. Blow dry.
5. Use hot tools, such as a flat iron, to create the style.

Both products are rated for heat protection up to 230°C/446°F.

Pros

• Two steps that are designed to work together: shaping creme first, fast-drying spray last.
• Both provide heat protection up to 230°C/446°F.
• Frizz and humidity control for up to 72 hours, per KMS.

Cons

• The straightening benefit relies on regular straightening-iron use.
• The Quick Blow Dry spray contains a silicone and alcohol, while the creme does not, so the set is not silicone-free as a whole.
• The creme is geared toward medium to thick hair; very fine hair may not need it.
