Good, A brushing done by a good hairdresser is great! But do you still have to be able to maintain it once you get home? So for all those who want to "finally!" » to do a blow-dry at home, I went to find out at the source:at my hairdresser… and I asked him!
1. Whenever possible, never use your hair dryer on maximum heat. The warmth of the air should be pleasant when you diffuse it to the back of your hand.
2. Keep your distance! Hold your hair dryer at least 20 centimeters hair.
3. If you have fine hair, set the airflow to minimum. Otherwise, you risk tangling them and forming knots.
4. Dry each strand from roots to ends. By smoothing the cuticle, this technique protects the hair against environmental aggressions.
5. Be sure to always keep the hair dryer moving so as not to overheat the same area. Before drying, we advise you to divide your hair into several sections to fix with large clips . Start brushing in the nape of the neck, then go up to the top of the head. This will avoid applying too much hot air to the same spot.
6. If you're in a hurry, you can speed up your blow-dry by setting the airflow to a high setting, but lower the temperature.
7. Always apply a thermo-protective care . This type of product prevents damage induced by heat and hair dryer blowing.
8. Do not dry your hair immediately after shampooing. Ideally, leave them wrapped in a turban in a towel for 15 minutes to lose their moisture. As a bonus, this trick shortens the drying time.
9. The diffuser nozzle of your hair dryer diffuses the air more evenly, which also prevents prolonged application of hot air to the same area.
10. For finishing, use the cold air option of your hair dryer. This step cools the hair and gives it more elasticity.
