Blowout Steps
Step 1:
After washing, wrap hair in a towel for about 10 minutes to let it dry some. The Flip Hair Drying Tool by AQUIS is a great choice, but any microfiber towel will work.
Step 2:
After taking the towel out, start detangling. For quick detangling, amika’s The Wizard Detangling Hair Primer is amazing. It’s lightweight and helps to control frizz.
Step 3:
Next, spray Living Proof’s StyleLab Blowout Spray all throughout the hair while it is damp before drying. It makes drying the hair faster as well as serves as a heat protectant.
Step 4:
Apply Joico YouthLock Blowout Crème from mid-lengths to ends, avoiding the roots to keep the hair from getting greasy. This product is key to creating that smooth blowout, leaving hair soft without a heavy feel.
Step 5:
After applying your products, do a quick rough dry to get the roots partially dry. Starting your blowout with soaking wet or damp roots makes it harder to dry them properly without overheating your scalp. A blow dryer like the blowpro kiss edition titanium dryer is perfect. It has multiple speeds and temperature options.
Step 6:
Start by sectioning your hair so you’re working with just the bottom section first.
Using a brush, slowly glide it through each section while following with the dryer. Repeat the same process with the middle section. This technique helps create that smooth, salon-quality finish.
Step 7:
At the top of your head, run the brush and dryer through a few times. Then, use a round brush to lift the roots, especially in the front so the hair isn’t completely flat against the head.
Step 8:
Now that your hair is dry, adding some finishing products is optional, but it’s a nice touch to make the whole process feel a bit more special and luxurious.
Spray the Davines Shimmer Mist throughout the hair for some extra shine and the scent is amazing. To finish, work a few drops of Matrix Food For Soft Hair Oil Serum through the ends for a smooth, shiny look that locks in hydration.
To finish, work a few drops of Matrix Food For Soft Hair Oil Serum through the ends of the hair. This will add smoothness, shine, and it locks in hydration.
