How to Maintain Your Salon Blowout for Days

There's nothing quite like the feeling of leaving the salon with a fresh, bouncy blowout. But how do you make that gorgeous style last for days at home? Here are our top professional tips for extending the life of your blowout.

1. Start with the Right Products

A lasting blowout begins in the shower. Use a lightweight, volumizing shampoo and conditioner that won't weigh your hair down. Before applying heat, you absolutely must use a thermal protectant. We highly recommend the Hot Like Me Sheer Glass Coat — it not only protects your hair from heat up to 450°F but also locks out humidity, which is the number one enemy of a smooth blowout.

2. Sleep Smart

Cotton pillowcases absorb moisture from your hair and cause friction, leading to frizz and flattened volume. Switch to a silk or satin pillowcase. For extra protection, loosely twist your hair into a high topknot using a silk scrunchie before bed.

3. Master the Dry Shampoo

Don't wait until your hair is greasy to use dry shampoo. Apply a high-quality professional dry shampoo (like Amika Perk Up) to your roots on day two, before the oil has a chance to travel down the hair shaft. This absorbs excess oil and adds volume back to the roots.

4. Touch Up with Care

If your ends start to look a little frizzy on day three, don't reach for the flat iron. Instead, apply a tiny drop of nourishing oil, like the Az Craft Elixir Nourishing Oil, to the very ends of your hair to smooth them out and add shine.
