DIY Salon Blowout at Home in 10 Minutes — Your Complete Step-by-Step Guide
Share
Introduction
We all love that fresh-from-the-salon blowout: voluminous, glossy, perfectly styled hair. But who has time (or budget) to visit the salon weekly?
Good news — you can now achieve the same professional finish at home. With the Tideway Ionic Hair Dryer, a few styling tricks, and the right brush, you can create a perfect DIY salon blowout in just 10 minutes.
Step 1: Start with Clean, Damp Hair
Begin with freshly washed hair. Use a lightweight conditioner or a leave-in treatment to detangle and nourish. Towel dry until your hair is about 70% dry — this ensures faster, healthier styling.
Step 2: Apply Heat Protectant
Never skip this step. A heat protectant mist shields your strands from temperature damage while enhancing shine. Even though Tideway dryers use intelligent temperature control, extra protection keeps your hair stronger over time.
Step 3: Section Your Hair
Divide your hair into 3–4 layers. Use clips to separate top and bottom sections. Smaller sections mean more control and even airflow.
Step 4: Choose the Right Brush
Round brushes work best for blowouts. For volume, go for a ceramic barrel brush; for sleek looks, use a paddle brush.
Pro tip: Keep the brush close to your scalp and pull downward as you dry for maximum smoothness.
Step 5: Dry with Ionic Precision
Using your Tideway Ionic Hair Dryer, set it to medium heat + high airflow. The ionic technology reduces frizz while cutting drying time in half.
Aim the nozzle downward along the hair shaft — this helps close the cuticle and boost shine.
Step 6: Cool It Down
Finish each section with a cool shot. This locks in style and adds lasting smoothness.
Step 7: Finishing Touches
Add a few drops of serum or light oil to your ends. Brush through and enjoy your professional, salon-worthy blowout — achieved right in your own bathroom.
