experience and give you some blow drying tips:


Take a lesson from a professional

Next time you’re at the salon, watch closely and ask questions when you
get a blow-dry so that you can re-create the same look at home.

Let your hair towel dry

as much as possible before pulling out the blow-dryer. It'll minimize any hair damage caused by the heat of your blow-dryer.

Apply a heat protection product

on you hair to prevent heat damage. Blow-dry down your hair shaft. This will achieve smooth locks.

Always blow-dry in sections

Start from the lowest section and section by section go to the top Remember never drop a wet hair section on dry one because it will ruin-down your style. You can also use hair clips that will make styling easier, quicker and give you better results.

Keep the blow-dryer at least a few inches away from your hair

when you’re removing moisture and then move it to about 6 inches when styling to limit damage.

Never concentrate the air on one section of your hair

for too long and always keep the blow-dryer moving.

Use the right hair styling tools

(you can buy them at Figaro salon or at any professional store) For sleek hair, use a round brush, make sure your hair is damp (not soaking), add a good heat protection product to prevent hair damage.

Never blow-dry your hair upside down

if you find that your hair tends to frizz. Avoid pointing the air flow of your blow-dryer upwards along your hair shaft and instead point it down and work from root to tip.

Add a root lifter product

if you need volume and bend at your waist and blow-dry your hair from an upside down position. For the best results, start drying your roots at the nape of your neck and then move through your hair until you reach the roots in your top front layer of hair.

Use your nozzle attachment

to zone in on specific sections of your hair and prevent fly-away.

When your hair is done

you also can use a flat iron to make your hair look flat or a curling iron to create beautiful curls.

A little bit of hair spray

or texturizing product will help you to achieve a perfect look.

And don’t forget that practice makes us perfect......

Your blow-drying skills will improve each time you blow-dry, especially if you keep these tips in mind.
