How To Blow Dry Curly Hair

How to blow dry curly hair: VideoJug's hairdresser, Richard Ashforth who's work has featured regularly in top magazines such as Vogue, American Vogue, and I.D., takes you through a step by step guide on blow drying your hair properly. This is great for people with curly hair, showing you how to blow dry it properly so you can avoid ending up with a head of frizz.


Step 1:

You will need

  • 1 towel
  • 1 hair dryer
  • 1 diffuser
  • 1 heat protective serum
  • 1 mousse
  • 1 hair spray
  • 1 wide toothed comb

Step 2:

Towel Dry

To remove all excess water, blot your hair with a towel. Wrapping curly hair in a towel will not remove all the remaining water. Do not vigorously rub the hair as this will damage the cuticles.

Step 3:

Apply products.

A heat protective serum will help prevent damage to your hair whilst you are blow drying. Experiment with different brands until you find one that best suits you.

Always follow the manufacturer's instructions.

A styling mousse will help you manage and control your hair. Scrunch the mousse into your hair, and distribute using a wide toothed comb.

Step 4:

Dry

Attach the diffuser, then adjust the hairdryer to a low speed but a high heat setting.

Tilt your head so that your hair falls into the diffuser.

Keep going until all your hair is dry.

Do not to touch your hair whilst drying, as it will separate the hairs, causing the hair to frizz.

Step 5:

Finish

Once the hair is dry apply some hairspray to hold the style.

Use your hand to scrunch your hair whilst adding the hairspray.

I found this video very helpful. Too bad the comments are so judgemental. Curly hair can be anything from really tight curls to loose waves. Anyway, even if you don't like her look, you can still use the diffuser technique which works great for blow drying curly hair, and this technique makes wavy hair even curlier.

She looks fine. If she doesn't have straight hair, at least she achieved it by the end, lol.

That video is so bad. As a hairdresser I would seriously avoid following any of these instructions. I always tell my clients not let the towel get near your curls. Comb it in the shower then wet it again. Shake your head upside down to get rid of the water then wipe through your hair (NOT RAKE) I recommend one pump of curls rock. Hair dryer set on low everything with as little movement as possible diffuse until nearly dry. No hair spray either. God that video is crap. Michael @ Unruly Studio, London
