FAQs

How often should I use the Moroccanoil Protect & Prevent Spray?

For optimal protection and color preservation, it is recommended to use the spray every time you wash your hair, and additionally before any prolonged sun exposure or heat styling.

Can I use this product on non-color-treated hair?

While specifically formulated for color-treated hair to lock in color, its protective benefits against UV rays, pollution, and thermal damage are beneficial for any hair type seeking daily defense. However, the specific color-locking advantages will only apply to colored hair.

Will this spray make my hair feel heavy or greasy?

No, the Moroccanoil Protect & Prevent Spray is designed to be lightweight and non-greasy. When applied correctly (evenly distributed, not over-saturated), it provides protection and nourishment without weighing hair down or leaving residue.

Does this spray replace my regular conditioner?

No, this product acts as a leave-in treatment and protectant, not a rinse-out conditioner. It should be applied as the last step after your regular shampoo and conditioner routine to seal in moisture and provide environmental defense.

What is the 'Color Complete regimen' mentioned in the description?

The Color Complete regimen is a holistic system of Moroccanoil products, including in-salon treatments and at-home care items like this spray, all designed to extend the life, vibrancy, and richness of hair color.

How much product should I use per application?

For fine to medium hair, start with 2-3 pumps. For thicker or longer hair, 3-5 pumps are usually sufficient. Always distribute the product evenly from mid-lengths to ends, adjusting the amount based on your hair's specific needs.

Troubleshooting

Hair feels heavy or greasy after application.

This usually indicates too much product was used. Try reducing the number of pumps. Ensure your hair is thoroughly towel-dried and not excessively wet before spraying. Focus application on mid-lengths and ends rather than roots.

Still experiencing color fade or signs of damage despite using the spray.

Consistent application is key. Ensure you are using the spray every time you wash your hair and before any significant sun exposure or heat styling. Review your heat styling temperatures to ensure they are not excessively high. Consider incorporating other products from the Moroccanoil Color Complete regimen for a more comprehensive approach.

The spray nozzle is clogged or product dispenses unevenly.

Remove the spray nozzle and rinse it thoroughly under warm water to clear any residue. If the issue persists, ensure the bottle has been stored upright and away from extreme temperatures.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Application Instructions

Applying the Moroccanoil Protect & Prevent Spray is a straightforward process designed to fit easily into your existing hair care routine:

  1. Prepare Hair: After shampooing and conditioning, gently towel-dry your hair to remove any excess water. Hair should be damp, not dripping wet.
  2. Spray Evenly: Hold the bottle approximately 6-8 inches away from your head. Begin spraying the product evenly throughout your mid-lengths and ends. For fine to medium hair, 2-3 pumps are typically sufficient; for thicker or longer hair, you may use 3-5 pumps.
  3. Distribute: Use a wide-tooth comb to gently comb through your hair, ensuring the product is distributed thoroughly and evenly from roots to ends.
  4. Do Not Rinse: This is a leave-in treatment, so there's no need to rinse it out.
  5. Style as Usual: Proceed with your regular styling routine, whether you choose to air-dry or use heat styling tools.

Compatibility

This product is primarily designed for and offers the most specific benefits to color-treated hair. It is an integral part of the Moroccanoil Color Complete regimen, formulated to work synergistically with other products in the line for optimal color protection and longevity. While its general protective benefits against UV, pollution, and thermal damage can be beneficial for any hair type, those with colored hair will experience its full intended effects.

Product Care

To maintain the efficacy and integrity of your Moroccanoil Protect & Prevent Spray:
