Blo | Blow Dry Bar

“It’s a great time to try a professional blowout,” says Vancouver-based Judy Brooks, co-founder and President/CEO of Blo Blow Dry Bar.

•Dictate the terms of what you want -- whether it be voluminous hair for an event or a blowout to last you three days.

•Cream shampoos will shorten the length of your blowout’s life, so seek out clear, purifying formulas.

• Avoid touching and brushing as much as possible. “This will add the greasiness back into your hair and take out the volume.”

• Use Velcro rollers on the crown of your head the day after your blowout, but skip brushing. On the third day, apply dry shampoo to roots. Brooks likes T3 Refresh Volumizing Dry Shampoo because it tints greasy-looking roots. She follows by tying hair into a sleek ponytail.

• Resort to using satin pillowcases to cut down the frizz factor. It really works!
