Blow-drying is a very simple process that can make your hair look very nice. It gives them volume and shine which makes you look attractive. So read up carefully how you can do blow-dry at home without any problems. One good thing about blow dry is that it doesn’t come in direct contact with the hair unlike a pressing iron or hair curling iron.

You must wash your hair with a regular shampoo, preferable that has more of moisturizing. A special shampoo often called as hair dry formula must be used as it keeps side effects of blow dry at bay. Towel dry you hair after washing them so that the dipping stops. Remember not to rub hair with towel as it creates split ends. Just wrap the towel and gently rub from outside with circular motions. Do not do it too fast as your hair may break.

Then you should divide up your hair into sections so that you can blow dry then easily. Best is to go for 5 to 7 sections but make sure that your hair should be detangled very nicely. You may also use clips so as to keep them separated.

For short hair, two to three sections would do. Start up blow dry six inches away from your scalp so as to be away from damage. Never blow dry your hair in upwards motion as it may cause more damage to hair.

Make sure your blow dryer is moving always and no not stick it to just one place as it may burn hair and also your hair would dry out and it may turn into a split end. So whatever you do, do it gently and carefully as such appliances can cause serious damage to hair if not used properly.

Leave your hair a bit damp so as to leave in some of the moisture. This would help you to retain hair moisture and hair would not even be damaged or be fizzy. Leave as damper so that it can dry out in say 5 to 10 minutes. So this is how you do blow dry.
