Blow Drying Tips – The Proper Way To Dry Your Hair

December 21, 2011 by admin

Using hair dryers or blow dryers is so common nowadays that the only comment it elicits is if you do not use them. Most people use blow dryers simply because it is more convenient and helps them get their hair in the desired shape. While the use of a hair dryer is fairly simple, there are some very elemental things that you need to follow to get the best out of your blow dryer.

Getting sexy, sleek fashionable straight hair is possible to do yourself if you have the right tools and take the time to learn how to blow dry hair straight properly. Beauty and fashion experts agree that the keys to achieving a beautiful look are the right products for your hair type, high-quality brushes, a blow dryer with multiple heat settings including cold, and the willingness to take the time to do it right. The first step is to wash your hair and apply a conditioning rinse. Towel dry your hair and be sure it’s not dripping, and apply a detangler if necessary.

Next, apply a product that provides heat protection all the way through, especially to the ends, followed by a small amount (about the size of a quarter) of a straightening balm. Massage it evenly into your hair by first rubbing it between your palms and then onto the hair using your palms and fingertips. How to blow dry hair straight depends on the look you want, whether it’s stick straight or with more volume and texture. For stick straight hair use a flat-headed paddle brush, but for more volume and texture, use a round brush. Use a larger brush for longer hair. [Read more...]
