At-home Styling Tricks

Looking to add that perfect blow dry style to your every day routine? Not sure what blowdryer will help you achieve the look you’re going for? We’ve got you! 

At Blush, we use Dyson and T3 blowdryers. T3 blowdryers are ionic which means they have a unique internal coating that helps distribute heat uniformly and Dyson blowdryers are fast drying and heat is regulated by the dryer every 20 seconds to ensure great heat control and eliminate any damage to the hair. 

Why the investment is WORTH the money: traditional blow dryers fling hot air in an odd way, which causes hair to dry out and become damaged and leave you with less control to tame stubborn strands. 

The Process: 

1. Towel dry or air dry as long as possible before blowdrying to get out excess moisture and shorten blow-dry time. Micro fiber towels are best for curly hair textures to eliminate frizz.
2. Start with a heat protectant product before blowdrying your hair.  We carry IGK products which have built in heat protectant in them, we love Good Behavior Spirulina Protein Smoothing Spray and Mistress Hydrating Hair Balm
3. Never stay in one spot when blowdrying for more than 30 seconds and do not put blowdryer directly on your hair to protect it from the heat. Hold the blow dryer 5-10cm away while distributing the heat down the length of your hair. 

Pro-tip No hair should be subjected to heat of over 400 degrees! Check your heat settings and modify if you have fine, medium, or coarse hair. Coarse hair can naturally handle more heat.
