Description
Straighten while protecting your hair with the Remington Keratin Protect straightener with smart sensor. Its patented sensor detects the moisture in your hair and adjusts the temperature throughout straightening. Hair stays smooth, frizz-free, nourished and shiny.
Its ceramic coating releases a keratin and almond oil treatment, for three times more protection according to the brand. The Remington Keratin Protect heats up in 15 seconds and offers 5 temperatures, from 160 to 230 °C, shown on a digital screen. The temperature and plate lock avoids accidental changes.
An automatic switch-off turns the appliance off after 60 minutes. A heat-resistant pouch is supplied. To switch it on, hold the button down for a few seconds, as a single press is not enough. The Remington Keratin Protect straightener weighs about 565 g and also suits thick, dry hair.

Our verdict on this Remington Keratin Protect straightener
Review written by the Aura Capillaire team · Updated on 19 September 2026
We read buyers’ feedback on this Remington Keratin Protect straightener to pick out what comes up most often, good and not so good.
The strong points
- A sensor that adjusts the heat: according to the moisture in your hair, throughout straightening.
- Smooth, very shiny hair, a result that many users praise.
- Heats up in 15 seconds: and simple settings, with a digital screen.
- A storage pouch supplied, with automatic switch-off for extra safety.
Good to know
- A button to hold down to switch on: a single press does not start the appliance. Keep the button pressed for a few seconds, as the brand indicates.
- Straightening is still a hot process: even at 160 °C, avoid going over the same strand too often. Use a heat protectant and keep your receipt for the guarantee.
Where we land: for glossy straightening with heat that adapts by itself, this is a well-designed, secure straightener. If you are looking for an argan oil option, the Philips 7000 series straightener below is another avenue. For other models, browse our hair straighteners.
