Create glamorous, catwalk-worthy hairstyles at home with the right tools and techniques for voluminous bangs, sleek updos, tousled waves, and more.
1. Invest in quality styling tools
Create salon-style with professional hair tools. Look for:
Powerful hair dryer with ionic technology for straightening and volume
Ceramic round brush for maximum hold while blow-drying
High-quality curling iron with adjustable temperature
Soft styling brush to prevent hair breakage
Strong hold hairspray for styling
Quality tools cause less damage and style faster.
2. Perfect your air-blowing technique
When it comes to salon-worthy blowouts, it's all about technique. In these order:
Apply a detangling product to damp hair to reduce frizz
Neatly divide hair into sections and use clips
Standing 6 inches (15 cm) from the blow dryer, blow the dryer down through sections of hair
Comb hair gradually under the blow dryer to add volume
Final cold shot to set
Retouch the roots with a round brush
Take the time to dry your hair from root to tip thoroughly.
3. Master the Elegant Updo
An elegant updo will bring out your best features.
Pull hair neatly back and spray at roots
Braid a low ponytail, secure it, and divide it into sections
Twist the sections and roll them into a bun
Strategically placed pins to keep the style in place
Conceal bobby pins and smooth ends with pomade
Updos keep hair away from the face for an instant neat look.
4. Reach the beach waves
Relaxed, tousled waves are a must for a bohemian vibe.
Apply salt spray from the middle to the ends
Make a 1" section around the head
Wrap sections around 1-1.25" curling irons
Hold for 5-10 seconds, then release and shake the hair
Comb with fingers to loosen curls
Finish with hairspray
Play around with split or messy textures. Add accessories.
5. Try a no-heat overnight style
Avoid damage from unheated curling and wave heat tools.
Braid wet hair before bed
Roll damp hair into a bun overnight
For waves, use a soft spiral roller
Wrap your hair in a silk scarf to secure
Morning freewheeling style
Sleep gives you beautiful hair.
6. Prepare protective equipment
Protect hair from styling damage with the proper prep:
Before heat styling, apply a heat protectant spray or cream
Look for Hair Masks That Deeply Nourish and Strengthen Your Hair
Use an oil or keratin leave-in treatment
Upgrade accessories like combs and ties to seamless satin styles
Product forms a barrier against breakage.
7. Strong finish
Fix your look and add shine with a setting spray.
Strong hold hairspray keeps styles in place
Finish with a gloss spray
Re-energize your hairstyle the next day with dry shampoo
Carry mini products for touch-ups with you
The correct finish will make the bobby pins ready.
