Overview

Color Wow Dream Coat Extra Strength is a heat-activated anti-humidity spray that creates a waterproof barrier lasting 3-4 washes. While not CG-friendly, it’s extraordinarily effective at protecting curls from humidity.

Key Ingredients Breakdown

  • Heat-Activated Polymers - Create an invisible, waterproof coating when activated by heat. This barrier prevents humidity from penetrating the hair shaft.

What We Love

  1. Extremely effective - Genuinely waterproofs hair against humidity
  2. Long-lasting - Lasts 3-4 washes
  3. No buildup - Self-cleaning formula
  4. Weather proof - Designed for humid conditions
  5. Brilliant shine - Hair looks salon-glossy

What Could Be Better

  1. Not CG-friendly - Contains silicones (heat-activated ones)
  2. Requires heat - Need to diffuse or use heat tools to activate
  3. Premium price - At £27-30, it’s expensive
  4. Not for everyone - Purists should stick to CG options

How to Use

On Wash Day

  1. Apply to freshly washed, towel-dried hair
  2. Section and spray evenly throughout
  3. Comb through to distribute
  4. MUST use heat to activate (diffuse curly hair)
  5. Style as normal

Tips for Best Results

  • Don’t skip the heat step—product won’t work without activation
  • Lasts through multiple washes
  • Use clarifying shampoo if switching back to CG products

The Verdict

As a premium investment, Color Wow Dream Coat Extra Strength may be worth it for those who’ve tried every CG anti-humidity option without success. The heat-activated formula creates genuine humidity protection that lasts for days.

Our Rating: 4/5 (for those willing to use non-CG products)
