Hi. I have this product, but I find it difficult to apply in sections. I use this as my only heat protectant and leave-in, so I want to apply it to as much hair strand as I can. Something I feel is not possible when I spray directly into my hair. Therefore, I have started spraying into my hands and applying in sections that way instead. Is this an okay method? Or is it not recommended? I feel my dry, thick hair is softer and shinier when I am on day 2 and 3 of curling iron curled hair after using this product. But I don't notice much difference on day 1 blow-dried hair. How can I get the maximum result from this product?
