My Blow Dry Method

After receiving some requests for a blow dry tutorial, I made one for you!

I don’t round brush my hair. Not because I don’t think thats a great way to style your hair, but because I don’t get the smoothness and volume that I can achieve with a flat iron.

So, I blow dry upside down. This technique encourages a lot of volume! It also blows dry pretty quickly!

A few factors to consider:
1. If you have bangs, and blow drying upside down causes them to stick straight out—blow those dry first, with a round brush, and clip them to the side. Then flip over and blow dry the rest of your hair the way I show below.
2. Promise me you will never aim the blow dryer at your scalp. That will rough up the cuticle of your hair and lead to frizziness and flyways. Always, aim down! (I’ll explain more in the video)

The products shown in the video are Aquage Uplifing Foam, my all time favorite, and KMS Quick Blow-Dry. I’ve been using the KMS product for a few months, giving it a good test run before I decide to promote it here. I think I like it, but I’m not sure that it’s a must have product for daily basis.

I’m using a Cricket Static Free 385 brush.

I don’t have an “After” picture today, since. . .well. . .There isn’t much to see!

If you didn’t already see on Facebook or Twitter, My blog was featured in a local magazine! The article starts off hilariously saying I’m “best known for the back of my head”–which is so true!

They also included a behind the scenes video! Check it out!
