1
Towel-dry your hair until it's damp before you begin to blow-dry it. Blow-drying dripping wet hair can take unnecessarily long and damage your hard-earned locks. Comb your hair out completely.
-
2
Apply a pea-sized amount of thermal product to protect your hair as well as smoother or volumizer, depending on your desired style.
-
3
Divide your hair into sections.
-
4
Begin to blow-dry your hair at medium heat and high speed, starting at the back of your head. Hold the blow-dryer at a 45-degree angle, drying down the hair shaft to smooth the hair cuticle and create shine.
-
5
Brush the hair as you are drying. Choose a round brush to create volume, and select a paddle brush for straightening and smoothing.
-
6
Use the "cool shot" button to lock in curls you finish your style. Lift the hair and spray underneath with a medium-hold spray.
-
7
Use a ceramic flat iron or curling iron if desired to finish the style.

Tips & Warnings
Always use some sort of thermal styling product when you are exposing your hair to heat from a hairdryer, curling iron or flat iron.
Avoid having blowout hairstyles every single day of the week. For overall hair health, give your hair a break by allowing it to dry naturally some days.
