This Bouncy Blowout Technique Is Our Secret to Instagram-Worthy Hair

Instagram-worthy hair is easier to get than you ever thought. 

Have you ever found yourself scrolling through Instagram wondering, “How on earth does everyone have such voluminous and bouncy hair?’ Sure, you could apply extensions for a fuller appearance, but here’s a little secret, you can also achieve the Instagram-worthy hair right at home with just a few products and your blow dryer.



The Secret to a Bouncy Blowout



1

Don't play around with protection.

I’m sure you’ve heard this before, but heat and your hair don’t mix very well. Anytime you use hot tools on your hair, like a blow dryer, flat iron, or curling iron, you want to apply a heat protectant to prevent any damage and spli ends. Spray 3 – 5 pumps of TRESemmé Thermal Creations Heat Tamer Spray. This product is heat activated, which means your hair will become more flexible so it can reform and hold its shape better–perfect when you’re going for a bouncy blowout look. After spraying throughout, comb through your hair to distribute product evenly.

A bouncy product for a bouncy blowout.

Use Suave Extra Hold Shaping Mousse to give your hair control and make it more manageable. Apply this product starting at the root and reaching all the way to the ends of your lovely locks. We love this mousse because it also gives you additional volume without that stiff feeling. Stiff hair is the last thing you want!

Section hair for success.

For your bouncy blowout, you’ll need to section off your hair. This can be done very easily by splitting your hair in half and securing the top section with a claw clip. Sectioning off your hair like this will give you more control while blow drying your hair and make it much more manageable.

Begin your bouncy blowout.

Once your hair is in sections, start blow drying in a downward motion with a round brush. Use Nexxus Ibiza Yolles Ceramic Boar Hair Brush for soft and shiny hair. This brush is one of our favorites because it gives your hair a lot of volume while combating frizz. After drying one section of hair, keep letting more hair out of the claw clip until every section is dry.
