After a hair salon appointment, you know the perfect shiny, shiny, and bouncy look. While blow drying your hair at home may not always produce the same results (in certain cases, you might lose any sense of hairstyle), some tricks will help you get the job done.
Silky, smooth, blow-dried hair signifies effortless chic and glamour. Think Kate Middleton and Jennifer Aniston. They all have beautiful, well-groomed, shiny locks that are timelessly stylish. Your jumper could be worn backward and still look great.
There’s more to getting that salon-fresh blow dry at home than just putting heat through your hair and hoping it works. Natasha, one of our hairstylists, shared her top tips for achieving a professional-looking blow dry at home.
Select the right product
It is important to have the right products for your hair. Kerastase density mousse is perfect for adding hold.
Use it correctly
Mousse can be a great way of holding your style in place. However, many people don’t use it correctly. Apply the mousse evenly to your hair. If you have dry hair, apply more product after you’ve dried it. This will ensure that the product doesn’t get diluted.
Rough drying
Your hair will only look good if it’s dry to around 80%. For a lasting finish, heat your hair thoroughly while blow drying.
The brush size
It is important to use the correct size blow dryer brush. For a tighter curl, use a two-sized ceramic brush. If you prefer a looser look, a larger barrel is better.
Fewer sections better blow dry.
You will get a tight blow dryer if you only blow dry smaller areas of your hair. Allow sections to dry naturally. If you want to keep your hair in place for longer, pin them. After you have removed the pins, spray your hair with a hair spray to hold it in place. We love Kerastase Laque Noire .
steps to a luxurious hairstyle at home
One
After your hair has dried, you can apply a little heat-protective product along the ends and lengths. Pre-styling mousse can be used to give your hair more volume. A heat-protective styling crème is a great choice if you want to soften and smoothen damaged or dry hair. A leave-in conditioner that you apply to wet hair can help curly hair.
Two
Begin by tying your hair at the crown. Make a horizontal part along your back and secure this section. Start drying the lower layers of your hair with a brush. Point the nozzle downward. Blond your fringe first.
Layer a small amount of hair on the top of the brush. (Here are our recommendations for the best blow dryer brushes), then move the nozzle down towards the ends of the hair. Continue this process until the hair is completely dry. This is essential for creating a glossy finish. Directing the nozzle downwards can smoothen hair and give it that shiny look.
If your curly hair is frizzy, a brush can cause it to look unruly. Instead, you can dry your hair by curling your hair and heating it. This will help reduce frizziness and give your hair a smoother look.
Three
Once your lower hair sections are dry, clip them. You can add some bounce to your hair by twisting and tying the sections of dry hair into a small ponytail. Next, blow dry the top part of your hair. The brush can dry the top section of your hair similarly to the lower sections. It should be dried downwards. Pull the hair outwards to avoid a flat look.
Four
Once your hair has dried, you can ensure it lasts the entire day. To tame flyaway hairs or to give your locks a glossy finish, apply a styling oil or cream to your hair. Hairspray can be used to give your hair a lift and style.
