How To Blow Dry Your Hair Like A Professional.

[wonderwoman534]

hi! i love this lesson soo much but before i do try your tutorial, my hair is really thick, shoulder length, and wavy. when i blow dry my hair at home its one of those blowdryers without the nozzle. and even though i put heat protection my hair dry up easily. any products that can help with that?

[marco67yt]

look on youtube for Wahl Rapunz hairbrush cleaner it cleans electric your brush in seconds

[ejazalisyed]

Can any one help me with the list of products he used on her hair?

[kellabella83]

I love all your tips, finally I got the answer to the question, does it matter which order you put your styling products in, I never was sure if I should put my mouse in first then my straightening serum (vise versa). I saw that you put the mouse in last so im guessing thats correct or does it even matter?

[imahugebelieber]

michael i have REALLY thick, wavy ,frizzy, layered hair! most of the time i wear my hair up but when i do wear it down i just blow dry it now sections, brushes or anything..and it gets really ' crimpy' thick and frizzier! then i have to split it in 4 sections and use an instyler which it is much straighter but still frizzy! any suggestions???

[designdanette]

My favorite thing to do as a hair dresser is blow drying. And let me tell you, after all the videos that I have watched over blow drying hair, he is one of the only people that really knows what he is talking about. Before I have even seen any of his videos, I have been taught all these tips and tricks from professional salon owners. He has good advice guys:) nice video!

[llrockout]

i have thick VERY THICK poofy hair i have layers like 1,the person who cut my hair was stupid...but i do need blow drying tips because my hair is very bad off when blow dried and i don't want to have to deal with this hair.,Any tips?

[anneh08]

Helloo, I have straight and relatively thick asian hair that goes to my waist. I was wondering what type of products you would suggest I use when blowing out my hair?

[HikariAkiko]

Hi Michael, I have very thick Wavy hair and when I blow dry it it quadruples in size and takes forever. When i go to my hair dresser he blow dries my hair and it come out sleek and with minimum volume in a matter of ten-15 minutes way (like i like it). I have the products he uses when he does this but i don't understand how he gets my hair so to not increase in volume in such a small amount of time. Help!

[valericool]

the tecnique used by the hair stylist sure helps it, but if u want to blow hair straight like a pro, just use a professional and very potent blow hair dryer... thats what they do, thats why the hair gets dry and straight so fast and looks so good... cause of the potency of the blow hair dryer. just in case someone wants to know, a good, professional and perfectly potent hair dryer is one that has its potency from 1800W and above.

God bless yall.

[themancape]

Its nice to see a professional actually use a protective drape/cape on the client for how-to videos. For that good sir, i thank you!

I can't tell you how many times I have seen cuts, colors, or styles with no drape/cape on them, or, if there was one, it was usually the wrong kind. Example of that would be using a nylon cutting cape like the one in this video, used for chemical or color.

[bonnieb118]

Cant wait to try this!

[Quoialikestigerz]

Jesus. with all the shit he put in her hair u could open up ur own friggen salon.

[miavonni]

THANKS! UR VERY CALM RELAXED STYLIST! GOOD TIPS FOR STYLISTS AND CLIENTS! AND UR MODEL IS BEAUTIFUL!

[KBphat]

what kind of products do you recommend on doing curls without it flaking and that will hold, my hair wont hold curls very well..

[kellidarcy]

thank you so much!!! you rock!!!

[carolinebuf]

what kind of blow dryer do you have?

[TheOriginalPringles]

quick question, when i blow dry my hair with a round brush, its always very flat at the top :/ any tips to give volume there too? thanks

[salosees22]

lol it was funny when u said "But i'm a professional!!"

[xoxotoe]

i like the cool shot tip! i didn't realize that's what it's for. thank you :)

[Frieza079]

god this guys voice is so annoying

[2ndstarr]

Thats fingerdrying hair. Not a proper blowdry.

[castampa114]

The end result is beautiful, however, his hands go right over the top of her head right after he rubbed the finishing serum onto them and for many people this will weigh down their volume. Instead, try applying product from the bottom to the top. The ends are typically where hair lives that is the most damaged...either from chemicals or natural environmental changes. You can always add more product if its not enough, but you can't exactly wipe it of if its too much.

[LoveMokes]

Hair is dead once it leave the scalp. All this product crap is foolishness. Things and products can break the stands but the strands ARE already dead a half inch from the scalp. Thats why it hurts to be pulled from the roots but doesn`t hurt to pull the length.

[emilysoxo]

@LoveMokes that statement is obviously not well thought out.

Your skin, the upper layer of the epidermis, is all dead skin cells. Dry skin, break outs, and sores all belie the problems within your body that show themselves on your dead skin cells, your skin. Moisturizers and treatments make an obvious difference. Just like the skin, hair, more dead cells, can be altered by product by the same principal. And, why do hair cells have to be alive to make a difference? it doesnt. think nail polish.

[castampa114]

Power drying the roots in an upward direction is perfect for someone doing their hair at home, however, Pre-drying the roots with a brush would give better stretch/control especially for coarse/wavy-curly hair that tends to be frizzy and looks alot nicer on a professional level, it would also address the cowlick in her bangs that creates the seperation you see in the end by completely blow drying them first then moving onto the rest of the head.

[Caremalgirl94]

neehhhhh so-so

[scorcher219396]

he should be using a heat protectant in the hair too

[shumaggirl]

when i blow dry my hair it gets frizzy all the time..what product should i use?

[milosc9]

perhaps try a few drops of silicon serum

[b0b3rt831]

Try the Aveda Smooth Infusion line. It's incredible and it REALLY helps combat frizz and humidity.

[minarschannel]

hm nice.

[devaloki]

hi Michael, i was wondering, what texturizing products do you recommend for really long hair (like half way down back and textured/layers)

like maybe a texturizing mousse? i used to use the one from tigi but the can breaks every time for some reason

[MissJagUR]

Thanks!

[Athenav1]

Why are he applying mouse I have had

my hair blow dryed many time and they

have nevery appyed mouse. ?????

[b0b3rt831]

It gives it hold, body, volume and shine.

[bobo4]

Tips I've been looking for for a long time, very useful!! Thank you, Michael for sharing!

[ASL8306]

does curling your hair under like that with the brush make it flip up?!

[yoanamihaela]

hEY CAn u do me A tutORIAL FOR hAIR

[mannyGORE]

Hi okay i dyed my hair permanetly dark dark brown. And i want to get my natural or a way lighter colour but i can't bleech it! any tips!!!!????please.?

[DeNiZLiLi87]

wait like 1 months, after shampoo its will be more lights, then you can start with lighter streaks, then you can go lighter.

i hope its help you

[mannyGORE]

Thanks very much!

I did that and it totally helped! your a pro!

[DeNiZLiLi87]

your welcome :)

[bekahbug97]

yeah... you just need to buy a lighter color of a hair stlye color..

[Simmi18]

You either wait it out or bleach, don't color ur hair lighter, or any other color because it'l lbring a wayyy different color in ur hair!

[celestyn05]

your just going to have to slowly dye up to the shade that you want to be, it takes a long time, but since you don't want to use harsh chemicals like bleach, its the best bet. Also, professionals can help too, I dyed my hair black for the longest time and I had my hair stylist use hair color remover on me, and my hair turned out fine.

[mannyGORE]

Thanks, my colour is basicaly back to its natural self so i am pretty happy lol.

[FearTheNumbers]

Wow. I wish my hair looked like that when I tried this. I can never get that much volume, no matter how hard I try, and my hair has a natural curl, which is irritating.

D:

[cheerybrite]

love love love it!

[mutulina]

thank you for the tips!

[miabria09]

are those brushes reccommended for medium texture relaxed hair?

[buzzbunney]

Thanks Michael, nice job, I learned alot watching your video. I have a couple of equipment questions.

1. It looks like you're using a "cricket 370" hair brush. Do you use the "boar bristle" or the standard?

2. I really like your styling chairs, can you tell me the name of the manufacturer?

[Stephxoox28]

Was her hair naturaly curly???

[misschinga]

thats cool

[Daisyacero]

crap!! i can get a proper blow dry even doing it alone!!

[Masteroftrancegirl]

Honestly, this technique looks harder to do than other techniques if you're doing it on yourself. If it's on someone else's hair, it might not be as difficult because you can see the whole head and where hair is flying while you're blow drying. That's a good tip to use mouse at the base of the hair shaft, but wouldn't it be better to use root lifter?

[ladyrosa]

you made it look easy but its only easy when u have naturally straight hair like the girl in the vid. thats not gonna work wit curly puffyhair

[PurpleinLA]

Looks really nice :).

[zeldahopper]

Thank you! Will you show us how we can blow dry our own hair. That's where the problem lies for me is trying to do that on my own head!

[Saann00]

<___< they're always guys who don't have to blow dry their hair straight themselves! But when you're doing it alone is super hard to do it yourself. And the guys don't know that because they don't have to!

[juss4razor]

Not very exciting, and that blow out isnt perfect, iv seen better.

[quickbeauty]

wow your good mannn!!!!! i wish you could be at my house everyday to style my hair

[nashrx10]

I used to live in Nashville and Michael cut my hair for several years. He is a very talented and knowledgeable stylist. He was able to get my color just right- and then when I was leaving- he reminded me to tell my new stylist the best formula mix. If you're ever in Nashville, see Michael for a great look. Mark :)

[lawlerbabe09]

i have this problem where when ever i run product through my hair a bunch of hair comes out in my hands. My hair is pretty fine/thin to start with. Is there anything that can prevent/reduce this?

[acrobatdsf]

Hellow. btw your a wonderful hairstylest. (:

I was wondering what the best shampoo and conditioner is for my hair. I have a dry scalp, my hair is naturally straight. and is thick. any suggestions? thankyou :D

[erin2326]

Great video! The model has absolutely beautiful hair.

[oxjay]

Michael, I've been blow drying my hair for quite a while on and off. I use the volumizing mousses and everything you recommended in the video, however when I blow dry my hair it looks like I used a straightening iron instead of getting that beautiful curl and flipped out look. What am I doing wrong?! If it helps, I have tons of layers in my hair and it is wavy and thick.

[michaelfoxnashville]

sounds like your technique needs changing. when you have the section of hair dry try winding it up on the brush and hitting it with cool air to set the curl.

[CathylovesBieber]

@oxjay but it looks nice if it comes out like you used a flat iron :)

[meenhabibiana18]

@oxjay try using more then one brush ,when ur doing a part leave the hair rolled in the brush and work on another part , i have long think hair i use about 5-8 brushes( they will act like rollers) when i run i unroll the 1st roll i did and i pin my hair when i'm done with all my hair i take all the pins out and i have real great looking curls

[preetrandhawa100]

@oxjay you have to keep trying on someone else in order to learn to do it on urself. i did for like 2 weeks on my sister...and that's how i learned to finally do it myself. everyone always wants me to blowdry style their hair now=D

[bananajooce]

I have frizzy thick hair with a lot of body that is just a few inches past the shoulder. I would like to know how to blow dry my hair straight

I have a defuser on my hairdrier, I blow dry in sections, I have a straightener, and silk drops that bring down the frizz. I have naturally wavy hair. Please help :)

P.S. i have the rite products bc my stylist has gotten it perfect without washing my hair, just wetting it down with water.

[austinbanner]

i have thick,very frizzy and damaged hair and have no idea how to get it healthy and pin straight with a chi straightner.... and suggestions

[michaelfoxnashville]

try loreal professional shampoos, absolut repair or liss extreme. the masques are amazing. second i would lose the chi and go for a ghd iron. it will not burn up your hair and holds a constant heated temp. also try texture expert styling products. fluid intense will smooth you out alot before you get to the ironing of your hair. good luck

[alphamale9000]

i have really silky nd thin hair so what products should i use to blowdry my hair and my daughter has really curly and frizzy hair any suggestions?

[michaelfoxnashville]

for your hair i would suggest a mouse because it builds volume and for the daughter i would try a styling lotion and air drying to avoid frizzyness.

[Fabieisthebest]

HI! I have never been taught how to blow dry at all, so this is very exciting to me.

I am going to be blowdrying and doing my own hair for my wedding in two weeks. I live in Hawaii and have frizzy hair, any suggestions?

Anyway...thank you very much!!!

[michaelfoxnashville]

since you are in hawaii i would look for kakui nut oil. and old hawaiian remedy for just that, frizzy hair. i bet it will be outdoors so i would dry and iron the hair and keep it loose although controlled so your hair looks done. i also always say that you should schedule for someone to do your hair as you will have a million things going on that day. it may be easier on you.

[michaelfoxnashville]

actually instead of kakui nut oil it is called manoi oil. it is mande from fermented coconut flesh, sorry,for the slip up

[chopinheart]

i have thin frizzy/curly hair about shoulder length. it isn't very curly, it is just wavy and ugly. i don't have a straightener, because i was told i have too thin hair. how can i give it a pretty look. products? blowdrying techniques?

[michaelfoxnashville]

i think i would want to cut a couple inches off. try a product from texture expert called smooth velours. this will help control the hair without it being crunchy or oily looking. also try curling the hair in sections around your fingers and pin in place let it air dry or with diffused heat and then gently run your fingers thru to seperate.

[Fabieisthebest]

Thank you very much for your response!!!

[spphr308]

Do you do curly wavy hair that's what hair I have do you have any tips

[michaelfoxnashville]

yes i do curly hair. product is your best friend. try loreal texture expert product line. the gelee riche is for course hair, it leaves it soft and manageable also try the fluid intense. together they should smooth out your hair without making it stick straight

[sel7862]

hi its great how ur showing us ur techniques but how can we blowdry the back part of our hair ourselves? by the time ive finished the back of my hair is one big buff.

[michaelfoxnashville]

blow the hair with your hands until 80% dry, then section by section work your way up the back.sometimes i will spritz the hair with water if it has gotten too dry to style. also i always try to start from the back and work forward. i will also say that if you can't style your hair it may be time for a good haircut.

[themancape]

I like the cape you used, and applaud you for using one instead of a towel.

[Sylphadora]

That thing about the hair sections not being deeper than the diameter of the brush is interesting... The things one learns in YouTube!! XD

The result looks very good =) But how much time did it take in the end?? I don't usually blow dry my hair because it takes a lot of time, and my hair is veeeeeeeery long, so I don't have the patience to blow dry it properly!! XD

[michaelfoxnashville]

it took about twenty minutes. sometimes adding a protein based conditioner to your hair can help keep out excess moisture. use it maybe once a week. you dont want to get too much or your hair can dry out.

[Sylphadora]

Thanks for your reply!! ;)

[vanessaevelyn]

really helpful, beautiful work, thankyou

[michaelfoxnashville]

thank you

[cherfer]

I can't understand putting in 3 products before you even blow dry. There are better blow dryg products that you would only need one type.

[michaelfoxnashville]

not one product does everything for everybody. these products were used to for her hair type which is color treated, slightly wavy with some courseness from grey. if one product works well then great, but most times it is not enough.

[denaaaaa]

hi!!

thanks for the video.. i have a question!!

the place i live, is humid and blow drying doesn't work well on my hair actually.. i mean it doesn't last more than 2 hours, then it looks horrible, what can i do??!?!?!??!?!

[michaelfoxnashville]

i find that getting the hair absolutely dry is a good start. then ironing the hair with a good iron ,like a ghd iron, helps to lock out the humidity. also finishing with an anti humidity hairspray like kenra #26 will help too

[denaaaaa]

thank u sooooo much..

[hazeliux12]

i guess its nice but i rather iron it

[BeautySolutions4u]

What products did you use?

[michaelfoxnashville]

i used the texture expert line of products. i think it was the shine perfection and the mousse volupte

[sonya841]

Hi Michael. Well, my hair is just a few inches or so past my shoulders, and it is not too thick and not too thin. Also it is a little curly, I mean loose curls not tighten. So how I shall go upon blow drying it in a professional way as you had said in this video on your Channel?

Thank You Much! Great tips.

Son~YA

[michaelfoxnashville]

the texture expert line has a product called spirale extreme which encourages curl. start with that and use a diffusser trying not to seperate the curls too much along the way. maybe even adding in a little shine perfection would help too. let me know how this works

[chantillyembrace]

you explain your vids very good!!!

[poisonivy9052]

That was beautiful, I am just starting out in the buisness...do you have any tips for other stylists? I'd love to see more of ur work.

[michaelfoxnashville]

keep a very regular schedule. turn down nothing that comes your way. get as much training as possible. learn to finish your work as best you can.try to stay away from cliques at work and dont gossip.

[plusszbabygurl]

would this work for african american hair and can u giv me a few tips??

[michaelfoxnashville]

i think it depends on the hair. the styling tips should work on any type of hair, but the product may need to be modified.

[jsnyc40]

You did a really good job on her hair. Thanks very much for those tips!!

[ChristinaLauterbach]

thanks for the finger tip product applying tip... And the cool shot thing

[ellieanimal101]

i blowdry my hair half, rub some product on my hands and thru my hair, keep drying and brushing until its dry and it turns out fine

[iLOVE0BSESSiONx]

not everybody blows out their hair like that

[spphr308]

You did a great job on her hair. I have wavy curly hair. Would I use the same products for a blow out? could you give me any tips for my type of hair it's long and medium thickness. Thanks

[michaelfoxnashville]

the type i used is texture expert line. probably dont need the mousse, but the smooth velours and the shine perfection together should be great.

[patrickburley22]

You are fantastic to watch, more videos would be awesome, how about how to get curly/wavy hair or even better, styles for different face shapes which is so necessary and would be so helpful. Thanks

[michaelfoxnashville]

i have a couple of other videos in the works. one is for iron styling curly hair. thanks for the nice message.

[SharonCobb]

Great lesson! I got a lot of good ideas from this. I look forward to trying them.

Thanks for making this.
