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. 8: Hot-Air Brush Manipulating a blow dryer while you wrangle a round brush takes a lot of coordination. For a DIY blowout that's a lot less cumbersome, try a hot-air brush. If you prefer a sleek blowout, check out the Revlon Pro Collection One-Step Hair Dryer and Styler, which is paddle-shaped for maximum smoothness; to get a voluminous look, try the Sultra Vixen Volumizing Dryer Brush.
Start by rough-drying hair with your usual dryer. Then, pull the hot-air brush through hair with long, slow passes from scalp to tip, maintaining tension. When your hair is nearly dry, try focusing the brush on your ends, gently rotating your wrist away from your face. Your at-home blowout will have a pretty, fresh-from-the-salon flip.
