With over 30 years of experience trailblazing the hair tools industry and supporting stylists with innovative styling technology, Hot Tools is extending its hair tools and heat expertise into its first-ever liquids haircare collection. Launching exclusively at Ulta Beauty, the Protect & Style Collection is designed to help repair, restore and protect your hair from heat damage.
Known for its professional styling tools, including the stylist-favored 24k gold curling irons, award-winning Dual Plate Salon Flat Iron, One-Step Volumizer and Three Barrel Waver, and, most recently, the innovative QuietAir™ Power Dryer, the Hot Tools Protect & Style Collection is a carefully developed line of liquid protection that helps lock out thermal damage from shower to finished style and leaves hair feeling soft, smooth and moisturized without the use of heavy silicones or harsh ingredients.
“We continue to prioritize innovation, creativity and proven results, and we are excited to share our latest innovation launching exclusively at Ulta Beauty,” said Vanessa Sobers, Vice President of Retail Marketing, Beauty & Wellness at Helen of Troy. “Protect & Style is not just another haircare collection, but one with smart ingredients and formulations that helps to directly address consumers’ needs and fears around heat damage. We are changing the way people help protect their hair from heat when styling with hot tools and can’t wait for our customers to try it and experience the difference themselves.”
Hot Tools Pro Artist Protect & Style Collection includes five core products:
- Restorative Heat Care Cleanse And Repair Shampoo* to provide thermal protection that does not easily wash away, while helping shield hair from breakage, retain natural moisture and restore strength in hair.
- Restorative Heat Care Repair And Protect Conditioner* that delivers weightless hydration that helps repair, restore and safeguard hair from heat styling.

Hot Tools Pro Artist Protect & Style Collection has been tested and strategically designed with clinically proven formulas to help protect all hair types up to an extreme heat setting of 455 Fº, so anyone can defend their hair against heat-induced damage. All products are formulated without silicones to help protect hair integrity while delivering heat protection for optimized styling.
“We know hair is an extension of ourselves, and, more than ever, people want to understand what they are using on their hair, which is why cleaner, smarter-working ingredients were at the forefront of our creation process for the new collection,” says Stacy Simmons, Global Vice President of Product Development, Liquids at Helen of Troy. “With innovative replacements for silicones and harsh ingredients, we are proud to enter the haircare space with specially engineered formulas that are lightweight and effective, allowing all hair types to feel confident using on their hair and to experience beautiful results.”
Also, as part of the collection launch, Hot Tools is releasing companion hair tools – One-Step Dryer & Curler, QuietAir™ Power Dryer, Ionic Flat Iron – tested to deliver beautiful, effortless styling with less heat damage.
