Sometimes your clients may want to switch up their hair look!

If your curly haired clients are looking to opt for a bouncy blowout, Molly Getz has you covered!

Below, Getz (@mollygetz), stylist at Soto Signature Salon & Spa, breaks down her method for creating a bouncy blowout for her curly-haired clients.

“Make sure to use enough heat for good smoothing and redirecting. Always allow the hair to cool. That’s what gives a blowout longevity,” explains Getz.

You can follow her step-by-step tutorial to recreate this look for your clients. 

How-To: 

  1. Apply leave-in treatment and heat protection spray of your choice. 
  2. Use blow dryer and paddle brush to wrap dry hair to add volume.
  3. At the crown, wrap hair in the cardinal direction to maximize volume.
  4. Once hair is almost dry, switch to an oval round brush, which provides a lot of tension for really smoothing hair out.
  5. Point the nozzle of the dryer downward and hold brush in a diagonal position to create a slight wave and bend in the hair.
  6. Turn brush and rotate it away from the head down each section to add additional bend.
  7. Once at the center back of the head, change directions and rotate the brush/hair away from the face.
  8. At crown section, lift hair with the oval brush to create on base curls and pull hair in the opposite direction that it falls.
  9. Rake fingers through to break up waves.

“This blow out will last for days and days and days," Getz says. "It’s frizz-free and really full and shiny."
