Long Hair Don’t Care! How To Get The Perfect Blowout

November 27, 2012

Long, straight hair is simple and gorgeous, but it can get boring. A great blow dry can give long locks the volume, body and shine they need to look more beautiful than ever. The key to a great blow out is practiced technique and great product. Follow the tutorial below to give your long hair a salon style blow out in a just a few easy steps.

  1. Start with combed out, wet hair.
  2. Apply a heat protector and Morocaan oil to your hair. 
  3. I use two pumps of Biolage heat protector by applying it to the ends of my finger tips and working throughout my damp hair and then follow with about 5 drops of Moroccan oil on the ends of my hair.
  4. Blow dry hair, freely, until it’s almost 100% dry. No diffuser needed for this part.
  5. Section hair into 3 or four sections with claw clips and leave bottom section down. Always start from the bottom-up when blow drying.
  6. Using a large round brush with narrow, take a 2 to 3 inch section of hair, and starting from the ends of your hair, roll the hair around the brush INWARD towards your head.
  7. Add a defuser to your blow drier and start with the nozzle on your rolled-up hair and slowly unravel the hair from the brush, away from your head, using the drier to blow the hair dry as you go. When you get to the ends of your hair, remove the drier and spin the brush a few times on the ends to let it cool and set. This action will give your hair a small turn at the ends.
  8. Repeat steps 4-6 on each section of your hair until you have dried all of it. Always leave the crown for last and you may want to go over your bangs and top layer of hair more than once.
  9. Voila! Now you have volumized, silky, smooth, straight and beautiful hair! I like to finish my hair with Garnier Fructise smoothing cream.
