Do you 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 couple of 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 needed after you try this tip.)
Step 1: Twist hair 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 at the top your head with the clip or barrette.
Step 4: Begin drying the loose hair. (You may use a lower heat setting if you do not have a time restriction.) When hair is completely 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 & cooperative, put 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 on the special occasions!
Approximate time required: 10-20 minutes, depending on thickness and length of the hair.
