9 Genius Ways to Fake a BlowoutForget the round brush and hairdryer -- here's how to cheat your way to a salon-style hair blowout |
Fake a Blowout Trick No. 6: Pin-Curl Waves Speaking of granny hair, it's time we reconsider the humble pin curl. What could be simpler than styling your hair with bobby pins? This heatless hair style is ideal when you have some time to kill, e.g., eight hours of sleep or a lazy afternoon binge-watching "Transparent." And, with a little practice, the end result looks so polished and pretty.
When hair is slightly damp, work in a light-hold styling product. Grab 1.5-inch sections of hair and roll (don't twist) each section up to your scalp, pinning them with bobbies. Kick it while your hair dries, then unpin your curls and brush them out. If the curls are too tight, don't freak out; a water-based salt spray like Herbivore Coconut + Sea Salt Beach Wave Hair Mist will relax your Shirley Temple tendrils into sexy, Blake Lively waves.
