Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Relaxing Balm

Yes. The formula works by displacing water from the hair shaft, which helps speed up your blow-drying process significantly.

You don't need an extra product. This balm is formulated with built-in heat protection to shield your strands from damage during blow-drying or flat ironing.

It is designed to be lightweight, but because it is a smoothing balm, a little goes a long way. Start with a small, pea-sized amount and focus it on your mid-lengths to ends to avoid any heaviness.

The balm seals the hair cuticle, which acts as a barrier against moisture in the air. This helps lock out frizz and keeps your style smooth even when the weather is humid.

It is primarily a styling product. While it contains proteins that condition the hair, its main purpose is to smooth, tame, and prep your hair for a sleek finish.
