FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I stop my hair from feeling dry and frizzy?
A heat-activated leave-in treatment applied to wet hair addresses both at once, since it adds moisture back into the hair shaft before frizz has a chance to set in during drying or styling. ghd’s dry hair nourisher is built this way, applied before you blow-dry or style, and is rated for up to 3 times less frizz than leaving hair untreated. Reaching for a leave-in before styling tends to work better than trying to smooth frizz out afterward with a serum, since the moisture needs to be in the hair before heat sets the style.
What’s the difference between a hair oil and a leave-in cream for dry hair?
A styling oil, like ghd’s wet-to-sleek formula, is lighter and focused on smoothing and shine, making it a good fit if your hair is more frizzy or dull than genuinely dehydrated. A leave-in cream is richer and designed to actually replace lost moisture in the hair shaft, which matters more if your hair feels brittle or rough rather than just lacking shine. Hair that’s both dry and frizzy can use both: the cream to rehydrate, the oil to finish and smooth.
Can split ends actually be repaired, or only treated?
Split ends can’t be permanently fused back together. Trimming is the only way to remove a split end for good. A split-end sealer works by temporarily bonding and smoothing the split, which reduces fraying and catching between haircuts, but it’s a cosmetic fix rather than a structural repair. Using one regularly can help your hair look and feel healthier between trims, but it’s not a substitute for cutting off the damaged ends eventually.
How do I apply a leave-in hair treatment for the best results?
Apply it to clean, towel-dried hair rather than soaking wet or fully dry hair, focusing on the mid-lengths and ends rather than the roots. Starting at the roots can leave hair looking flat or oily at the scalp, especially if your hair is fine or you have an oilier scalp. Comb or work the product through evenly before styling, since an uneven application is what leads to some sections feeling treated and others not.

Does a heat-activated hair treatment mean more heat exposure for my hair?
No, a heat-activated treatment is designed to work with the heat from your blow-dryer or styling tool that you’re already using, not additional heat on top of your normal routine. The treatment is absorbed into wet hair first, then the heat from drying or styling activates it as hair dries, so it’s using the heat step you’d be doing anyway rather than adding a new one. This is different from a product that needs its own separate heat source to work.
Will a leave-in oil or cream make my hair feel greasy or weighed down?
Not if the formula is built to be lightweight, which is the main difference between a proper leave-in treatment and just layering on extra product. ghd’s wet-to-sleek styling oil and dry hair nourisher are both formulated to absorb into the hair shaft rather than sit on top of it, so they add moisture and shine without the heavy, flat feeling that thicker oils can leave behind. Applying either on wet hair, rather than dry, also helps it distribute evenly instead of pooling in one spot.
