Want that silky, touchable hair that Pantene Pro V products claim
their shampoo will give you? Look no further-you can have that flawless
look by spending only a few extra minutes blow-drying your hair!
Ditch the designer hair products and follow these simple instructions
to give your hair the same beautiful look and soft feeling:
Materials:
- Towel
- Hairdryer
- Brush / Comb
- Claw-Clip or barrette
- Your usual styling products or a small amount of hair gel for
touch-ups
These may not be necessary after you try this
tip.
Step 1: Twist hair up into a
towel in order to remove excess water. How long you keep it wrapped
in the towel is up to you-my hair is long, so time permitting, I
keep it like that for about 15 minutes.
Step 2: Comb out any tangles
and part hair as you wish.
Step 3: Gather hair and twist
except for a thin layer at the base of your head. Pin hair atop
your head with the clip or barrette.
Step 4: Begin drying the loose
hair. (You can use a lower heat setting if you do not have a time
restriction.) When hair is complete dry, turn off hairdryer and
brush or comb hair.
Step 5: Remove clip and take
another section of hair to be dried. Re-twist your hair and replace
pin.
Step 6: Repeat step 4 as necessary.
For thicker hair, you may need to separate hair into sections several
times. My hair is of a medium thickness but long, so I separate
it into 3 sections.
Step 7: Once hair is completely
dry, brush and style as you wish, or leave it down, as it should
be less dried-out and more manageable. If your hair is not completely
frizz-free and cooperative, rub a small amount of gel in your hands
(a nickel's worth or a quarter's worth) and gently smooth over your
hair, paying close attention to the ends.
Drying and styling time will vary based on your hair's thickness
and length. Though I do not always have enough time to use this
drying technique, it works wonders for my hair for those special
occasions!
Approximate Time Required: 10-20 minutes, depending on thickness
and length of hair.
