If you have short hair, whether wavy or straight, the most important thing is to choose the right hair dryer. Indeed, to prevent the ends from breaking and drying out, you must bet on a device with a heat variator. This point is essential, because it best protects the hair fiber. If you have a very curly short cut, you can also use a diffuser to define your curls. Your hair dryer must therefore have a “cold air” option, different temperatures and several speeds! Also bet on a powerful motor, so your hair will be dry faster and therefore less attacked by the heat. If you have short hair, the drying time should be extremely fast. Finally, avoid small travel devices, except in cases of force majeure, as they often tend to burn the hair fiber.
Know first of all that it is essential to keep your hair dryer at a safe distance. Generally, we recommend 20 centimeters between the tip and the hair. This avoids damaging the fiber and the scales too much. Then, if you have a short haircut, it is important to bring some volume to the hairstyle. For that, nothing could be simpler, just put your head down to take off the roots and give movement. You will thus avoid the mop of hair and a boyish look. You can also apply a little product or styling mousse before drying to obtain more texture. If you want to work your hair back or give it a specific movement, use a medium-sized round brush. If you want to achieve an impeccable brushing on a square cut, choose a blower brush. Otherwise, work the strands one after the other starting from the bottom and the sides.
Today there are high-end hair dryers that respect the hair fiber more and more. Ionic devices are particularly appreciated to promote the shine of the scales. However, if you have a short cut and particularly fine hair, do not overdo the electric drying. Also avoid using the maximum temperature, you can simply increase the speed of the device. Our advice:look for a model with an air concentrator. Thus, the air flow is precise and does not overheat all of the hair. And for a shiny hairstyle, press the "fresh air" button at the end. This avoids the frothy effect while tightening the scales.
