Welcome to Hair Primer 101! We are sharing all the secrets of what it is, why and how you should use it and the best one for your hair type. From its detangling properties to its frizz reduction, a multitasking hair primer will be your new styling best friend! 

What is a hair primer? 

Hair primers are for prepping your hair before styling, similar to prepping your face with make-up primer before applying makeup. They’re typically a lightweight multi-tasking spray that simplifies your styling routine by detangling hair, providing heat protection and reducing drying time.  

What's the difference between a hair primer and leave-in conditioner?  

Hair primers are best suited for your post hair cleanse + conditioning ritual as part of your styling routine. It provides heat protection and keeps hair styles looking + feeling fresh. 

Leave-in conditioners are best suited for use on wet or dry hair to provide moisture to damaged strands and should be used as part of your cleansing + conditioning routine. 

How do you use a hair primer?  

After shampooing and conditioning your hair, use the hair primer to lightly mist the mid-lengths to ends of your hair prior to detangling or heat styling.  

Hair primers can be used alone or along with other styling products. You can even apply hair primer to dry hair for a glossy finish.  

Who can use a hair primer?  

Hair primers are a versatile styling product that can be used on all hair types. Whether you have fine hair, coarse hair, or even curly hair, a hair primer can be used to smoothen out and soften hair, without weighing it down.
