Tips for the Perfect Blowout

At Head Rush we stand by saying "everyone looks better with a blowout". There's a reason behind that. Each time your hair is done you feel like you can conquer anything. Here's the thing, we live in a world filled with commercials and advertisements of miracle beauty products that half of us don't know how to use. This is why when I do a blowout, I love to educate my clients on how to do it at home. Of course there's no experience like the salon, but at least in a busy world it's nice to know some stylists can share tips and advice to keep your hair looking beautiful.

TIP #1: KMS Humidity spray is one of my essentials (especially during the humid NY summer season). It helps seal shine and literally blocks out frizz.

TIP #2: I love Velcro rollers! I roll them in and do my makeup every morning. It gives me body for the day. I lightly spray Moroccan hairspray before I let them out.

TIP #3: Another tip similar to tip #2, good ol' fashion hot rollers! Great for a fast bouncy look and especially good if you don't have time to blowout your hair but look like you did! I use KMS Freeshape spray on dry hair before putting in the rollers....than shake it out. Freeshape spray is also excellent for curling irons and wave irons. The spray can make an type of hair hold a curl.

TIP #4: When blowing your hair at home, always use a nozzle and a ceramic brush (for temp control).  Also, try to use a smoother to protect your hair (Kerestase Nectar Thermique is great).

TIP #5: NEVER use hot tools with wet hair!

TIP #6: If you have bangs, the smaller the brush, the curvier the bubble!

TIP #7: To blowout hair, the bigger the brush, the faster you go, the smoother your hair will get.

TIP #8: KMS Makeover Spray is a great choice to keep the blowout a few extra days (it actually absorbs oils to keep hair fresh looking). Just spray by the root, especially at your part, blow with dryer fast and you're good to go!

TIP #9: Always sleep with hair in a high ponytail after a blowout to really make it last. Use a thick scrunchy to best hold without leaving any dents in the hair.
