6 Ways to Make Your Blowout Last for DaysSave time, money and energy with these expert tips for making your blowout last |
Take care of your strands while you're sleeping "To prolong your blow-dry, ensure that you take care of your strands while sleeping in order to avoid disturbing your style too much," says Marilisa Sears, artistic director for Marc Anthony True Professional. "A haircut that works with your natural hair type goes a long way. If you have straight hair and get a cut that works with your natural hair growth, it will make waking up a lot easier (meaning less fuss when having to style in the morning). If you have curly hair, wrap it at night (flip your head over and wrap hair in a silk scarf, letting the ends of your curls pop out at the top of the wrap). Alternatively, you can pineapple your curls (this is when you loosely put your hair up to the highest point and tie it to look a bit like a pineapple)."
"Sleep with silk/satin pillowcases; the weave is so tight that hair will not tangle nearly as much as it does on cotton," Sears says. "In terms of products, the Marc Anthony Strengthening Grow Long 2-in-1 Dry Shampoo + Conditioner, $9, is a go-to. The formulation is clear and is super fine due to rice powder. The conditioning agents, such as Abyssinian oil, are super light and allow hair to feel clean while keeping body and shine. There is no residue, only renewed volume, body and the quiet removal of dirt and grease. Say hello to day three and day four!"
