does anyone know how to properly blow dry hair? when i try it, my hair gets afro fabulous. HELP?

Question

i try using brushing while drying but i never get smooth results like you do at a salon. :(

Answer 1

Here's How:
1. Apply your favorite straightening balm if hair has unwanted curl or wave.

2. Gently detangle hair, create part and allow to 90% air dry.

3. Horizontally section hair leaving a section free.

4. Pull up remainder of hair and pin in place with sectioning clips on top of head.

5. Divide the free hair into 4 manageable sections depending on thickness and length.
6. Hold dryer in one hand, brush in the other.

7. Choose one of the 4 sections and move the brush and the blow-dryer vertically, directing airflow down the hair shaft. This will also create shine as you close the cuticle.

8. Continue from section to section of free hair until all the sections are dry and smooth.

9. Remove clips, horizontally section off more hair and allow this new section to fall loose.

10. Re-clip damp hair on top of head continue the drying steps as described above until all of the hair is completely dry.

11. Style with a brush to coax desired movement and then spray to hold

Actually i dont know how either. So i found this brush hair dryer. Its liek a brush and a hair dryer at the same time. its really good too. then you can use some kind product to style it. make sure the product is heat activated type.

Or you can just go to a pro and ask for advice. I think hair drying causes hair damage and that sucks. so i just let my hair dry naturally now, unless something important happens.

Or if you dont want to ask, just towel dry..then use i good hair spray or frizz serum. You can also find a shampoo that would help with your prob.

Answer 3

You need to use a lower heat setting on the blow dryer and use your brush under your hair as you dry it.You can also use a little bit of leave-in conditioner to help with the frizzies.

Answer 4

My advice would be NO BLOWDRYING at all. Dry it with a towel, or wrap it way before the even you're going to that would need your hair to be blow dried. Trust me, I helped my friend who has the same exact hair problem as you and it was fine. After you shower, brush your hair for about 5 minutes and then wrap it up with your fave towel! =]

Answer 5

brush while blow drying and hold the blow dryer at an angle facing down.

Answer 6

before i blowdry i use an anti frizz serum like John Frieda or Zerofrizz. a little goes a long way. Also i like thermasilk a lot. Finesse too. get the kind for dry hair.

Answer 7

You need an antifrizz product.

Also, blow dry your hair on low heat, the lowest setting it has, even if it's cold.

Answer 8
