I guess So we'll try to make the most of today Have have a blast have fun getting a chat get excited And we're gonna be pretty much I have no idea what I'm saying I was just doing a client and now all of a sudden I'm live on the internet trying to figure things out So we're gonna do some blow drying today I'm gonna show you guys how to pop volume into your client's hair using a round brush But most importantly, I want to go over products So this is a great class not only for professionals, but also for just regular human beings out there That want to learn to get a little bit of volume in their hair as well So I'll pack it in it'll be for everybody Carly. What's up? Good to see you Good to see everybody in the chat tons of people log it in I'm actually really surprised for a Friday to have this many people on Obviously, all of you guys want to know how to get volume in your hair. So let me shoot on over to The manic in here and I can put that there so you guys can see as well. So a couple things Before I get started So a couple things before we get started with the class today Again, I'm gonna go over some product knowledge stuff also techniques on how to Create that volume in the hair. I'm just gonna get rid of this camera. So I don't need it. So I'll back this one out a little bit There we go so First things first Obviously, I've just shampooed prepped the mannequin in that way now. I'm going to brush through it So a couple different things. I think the application of the product is super important So we're gonna go over that. I want to talk about Paddle brushing as well. So when you use a paddle brush, there's a couple different ways to use it So when she comes out when you come out of the shower when she comes out of the shampoo bowl her hair is tangled a little bit I mean, obviously I ran conditioner through it worked my fingers through it, but overall it's a little bit tangly So when you look at a paddle brush, let me show you guys from this angle here You can see that one way and a lot of people talk about this one way You can't see through the bristles the other way you can see through the bristles now the the difference in that And what makes that so great is that I brush this way vertically with the brush Obviously you start at the bottom work your way up I could start vertically with the brush and that detangles and then when I want to create a ton of tension in the hair To pull and smooth then I brush this way with the bristles Horizontal so I work through vertically I'm gonna start at the bottom work my way up We'll go right back here. This is also Danielle's Updo, which I took about 70,000 pins out of Bobby pins, so we really worked a nest in this in this hair So I'm gonna go through start at the bottom work your way up and then I just start pulling and I'm so I'm lightly Going into the hair. I don't want to pull the hair Obviously, she doesn't have feelings, but your guests will probably have feelings There we go if I see now app. Yes for sure we're also live on the Minerva beauties Facebook as well, so welcome to everybody that's watching on there and It's Friday. Are you guys busy in this line? Let me know in the in the chat If you're new to the show type new in the chat and if you're an og you've been watching this show for a while Type og in the chat. I want to say hi to my people In there. All right So almost there working through it getting everything nice and detangled then once you have everything Detangled then you can start applying your products. So There's a couple products that I actually one that I didn't have so I'm gonna show you guys how to make it kind of And it's also a nice product cocktail that I like to put together as well. So I'll show you guys that and One sec. All right, I got Amelia. She's new Catherine's an og Heather is new Robbins new a lot of new beasts. Good to see you guys Did you brush it before you washed it? No, I Did not I quickly did quickly got this thing together because I had to get on the live and I had a client I said so quickly did a haircut prior to this and now here we are Okay So now we got it brushed through. I'm gonna work this into a center parting Right down the center like that and then we'll part it We're a nice little center part So I'm gonna apply my products first and then I'll section off the head to do my round brushing All right. So what is my product choice gonna be? I've got a couple different products here First one of my favorite products for just a blow-dry in general if I'm not trying to bulk up the hair I'll go with sculpting foam by Paul Mitchell What I'm gonna do today is you could do the extra body sculpting foam, which is great as well I'm gonna add a little bit of thicken up to my sculpting foam So that's kind of where I said if I had extra body sculpting foam be very similar But I love the scent of sculpting foam and I love the The way that thicken up work. So what I'll do is I'll put a little bit of sculpting foam in my hands here and then I'll put a little bit of thicken up on top of that and just kind of cocktail those two products together Then what I'm going to do is for this I'm going to start by working mid-shaft to ends Head over a little bit So we're going to go mid-shaft To ends work that product through Now here's a little Fun fact when you're putting product in your hair at home or in your guest's hair Is you want to make sure you get product on all of the hair? If you don't get product on some hair and what's going to happen is you're you're going to get frizziness within the hairstyle Also notice that I went mid-shaft to ends. I'm not trying to glob All the product on every little bit of the hair there I'm just going mid-shaft to ends because that's where I wanted to work and then I'm going to go thicken up A little extra thicken up on the base and I'm going to go sculpting foam also But I just want to mix that a little bit different. So just kind of focusing in On each of those areas all right So then once I have that I'm going to brush mid-shaft to ends Brushing it helps get the product all the way through fully saturated on the hair But again just working mid-shaft to ends It's raining again here Fun all right, and now I'm going to go a little bit of sculpting foam not as much as before in my hand and then Quite a bit more thicken up I'll do about six pumps of that there This I'm going to work into the scalp underneath the hair work it through So what is thicken up do thicken up has panthenol base on it or in it? So what that does it kind of fattens up the hair So it's going to make the hair six times thicker than it normally was So if you're looking to add a little bit of fullness to your hair this doll head has quite a bit of hair But if you're somebody that has a thinner had a hair thinner density Then this is definitely a good product for that just plumps it up a little bit and then you get your hold from the Sculpting foam And another thing guys if you have questions about anything Type q and put in your question that way. I can see it. I'm looking at all the chat See a couple if you have questions place a q. Thank you guys for having my back on that Cool Crystal says I love Paul Mitchell. Wow. That's a lot of product you use to use the same amount with short hair No, so that's a great question. If they had shorter hair I wouldn't I'm using it based on the density of the hair She has a ton of hair. So I'm using kind of a ton of products To make sure that I get it fully saturated throughout If they had shorter hair, I would use it accordingly Trying to get a better center part here my sections So now a couple sections that I'm going to do let me pop to the top of the head here So what I'm going to do is I'm going to take a triangle first out of the the front of this because what I want to do Is I want to separate that fringe area and then the rest of the head the fringe I'm going to focus on where I really want to pop that volume in So I want to just have it separate from the rest of the style So a triangle on the top of the head Here and that triangle is going to go straight down to the hairline I'm going to try to do this in as few sections as possible because obviously when we're blow drying We don't want to put a ton of sections in the hair, but it's good to separate it Because after I create this triangle in the front then I can go in And actually kind of work on that diagonal back all the way around the head. I'll show you guys what I mean this Twist this up. I'll clip it away. So kind of what I meant by working off of that diagonal Parting is I can work my brushing off the face and kind of work in a pinwheel set here just like this Uh, I'll do the underneath first and then we'll work through that top section. So uh through here I'm going to draw a u-shape section And then we'll basically be done with our sectioning right here Come back and just draw a round section around the head It doesn't have to be perfect because this isn't a haircut. This is a style Just take this area around. So also if you're doing this at home To get this style, I think it's important to kind of separate things So obviously you just take this up in your hands and clip it away. It doesn't have to be a perfect parting It's more for the teaching purpose and I like to get as good a parts as I can But you don't have to get it perfect Just pull up the top separate the top and the bottom clip it away All right So now we've got our u-shape section across again a little upside it. That's okay, and we're going to start to work um our round brushing throughout the bottom Now I want to talk about round brush technique because I I like to hold the barrel of the brush or of the blow dryer so So I like to hold the barrel like this and this blow dryer actually doesn't even have a handle um, but I like to hold the barrel and then my technique is to I'll get away from my black clothes is to have the barrel of the blow dryer At a 45 degree angle at the brush. So this let's say this is 90 I like to tilt it down just a little bit like this. So the air is flowing around The brush that's the goal. So you don't want the air to flow right at it because that'll create frizziness in your blow dry So we work through it now When I add my client here You want the size of your section No larger obviously than the barrel of your brush now these ergo brushes have a much larger barrel So I like to really just do half the brush. I don't really see a reason As i'm working through the head to have more than that. That's up to you guys I like to have a little bit more control I like the bigger barrel, but I don't really need to utilize the whole thing Uh, and what i'm going to do is if you want extra volume, you're going to go up with the brush That's going to help dry the hair in this more up kind of On base Feeling here like that and that'll give you extra volume So the higher I lift the hair up the more volume i'm going to get the lower I go here We're just then smoothing polishing with a little bit of volume So if we want extra volume, we're going to go up. So what i'm going to do is i'm going to kick on the blow dryer here Uh high heat medium air. That's what I like to do and just work through it that way So another little fun fact about blow drying is in my opinion slow and steady kind of wins The race right so as i'm going through and blow drying There's no reason for me to be flying through this and ripping the hair around I think the the slower you go and you just kind of let that air flow go over it and polish it out You're going to have a better result. So just trying to keep things organized and work through it that way And let the brush and the air flow just kind of do its thing It's going to blow dry just as fast or even faster going a little bit slower So now here's a couple other Things as I work through it. So you want to let it cool or do the cool shot To let it cool off. So what's happening is as you heat the hair up the brush gets hot So it's kind of like putting it in a hot roller and then as that cools off it starts to set the bonds. So when you add heat water You know certain things to hair. It's going to break down bonds Then as the hair cools it starts to reform those bonds and it's going to form it in that kind of way So whether you're using a curling iron or anything else as I let the hair set and cool If I pull this brush out right away Um It's going to start to cool but being pulled by gravity being pulled down So the goal is to keep it in this formation for as long as possible. You could also um Obviously use two different brushes And go through it set a brush do your next section Maybe even work the other side then come back when the brush is cool. Take it out and work through it You could clip it. Um Again, I saw some of you guys posting some of the ogs appreciate it. Uh, you can get all these tools at shop fse So when I take this section out, I can always wrap it like this Up and then clip it right here Just like that and that is going to help let it set let it cool You could even do a little bit of hairspray in there if you wanted to to let it set that way So now we'll move into the back Another part of the technique with blow drying is I like to work slight diagonal Sections and kind of work back. That's just my thing off the face if I wanted to blow dry towards the face I do diagonal and work that way. Um I'm not so much a kind of flat set person So, um, that's just my My kind of take I like to have a little bit of movement with those diagonal sections It's just what plays out in my head, right? I don't know um You guys know that I'm more of a technical hair cutter than I am a technical styler so um Styling is more of a feeling to me. So as I come through here I'm just going to take a slight diagonal section here Clip the rest away Just so I stay away from that section and now I'm going to blow dry this back technique here Without having the blow dryer in my hand As I blow dry, I like to put the the hold the blow dryer in my hand But pinch the hair with my in between my pinky and my ring finger As I'm working and that helps me kind of pass through this section So we'll go here So that's the final kind of As I'm heating it up guys like I run it through a couple more times Just to heat the brush up a little bit and to work those ends under it And then I fold it and roll it up. So then Now I don't have to let it fully cool because if I'm going to put it in a clip I can just wrap it around and let it cool on its own at that point So Don't feel like you need to sit there and let that brush sit in the hair Now I'm just going to continue working around same thing diagonal partings up the head Clip the rest away, and then this is where I'm going to blow dry So this section is really where the larger barrel of the ergo round brushes comes in I think I have a regular. Yeah, I do Regular round brush over here Say regular or typical round brush So when I take this out, I'll show you guys Take out the section and we can slide our clip So basically what I'm going to do now is I'm going to rotate all this So I slide this clip up under And now I can take this clip out Because it's cool at this point And I don't need it to really rest anymore But when I take it out, I'm not going to touch it I'm not going to put my hands in it rush through it or anything Because I want it to start cooling and I'm going to start working on this temple area here and then work my way back Because I want to continue wrapping everything off of the face so here Here's where you can see the comparison of The ergo round brush and a regular one. So you get that much more barrel So in cases where I was working on a large section in the back I can actually fit that entire section on my brush Also has a little bit larger handle, which is great for when you're working at home Have being able to Have all this brush to work with it's like almost the size of your head to just throw the hair in and start brushing And then also the larger handle so it's easier to reach Different things also the tourmaline bristles. So the bristles in here have a negative charge A lot of times they're just kind of like a plastic bristle. I don't know what this brush is made of But this one tourmaline bristles negative charge what that does is water is positively charged So when you have a negative charge it not only lays the cuticle down better But it pushes the water out of the hair so Allowing it to blow dry a little bit quicker. So, you know, this is definitely this is the ergo 53 brush You can get it on our online store Definitely killer brush awesome brush to use Yes, that's that that is that So now I'm going to go in section off Clip the rest away We're just going to work our section back off of the face. So I'll come back this way So another tip, um, that's what this class is all about throwing out them tips. Um Another tip is when you have Uh, when you're round brushing or blow drying your hair at all Doesn't matter if you're just blow drying it to smooth it out blow drying it for volume Number one thing is when you think it's dry go a little bit longer When you do that it smooths it even better adds more shine um A healthy or cuticle that is laying down Is going to be a lot shinier. So the way that you get shiny hair is the reflection of light hitting the cuticle the cuticle is shiny And very reflective. So if it's laying smooth Then you're going to get that shiny hair effect if it is up and frizzy Then you get a dull hair effect. So That's kind of the goal. So you want to make sure just as you're going through it's going to go from being dry or damp or wet to damp and dry Dry and frizzy and then to dry and smooth. So just continue working through it and don't stop Until you get that smooth result just go a little bit longer There we go underneath now. I'll take my next term one of my previous clips If you guys have a hundred clips laying around feel free to just keep them in there, but for me I don't I should But I lose them All right So now I'm going to take a diagonal back parting We got about two sections to go in the back So we're done Here is the section. I'm going to smooth Went the wrong This is So somebody was saying I had to use a cool shot Sometimes when you're doing blowouts, I do sometimes depends on what blow dryer I have This current blow dryer that I have in my hand doesn't really have it. It has cool setting. It doesn't have a cool shot so So i'm not currently doing it I don't want to I don't want to have to flick this too cool Which is what I would have to do But that's totally fine. I'm letting it cool with the clips, which I prefer to do that Instead of standing there letting it set in the salon. I'm always trying to figure out how to maximize my time To make sure that you know I can get as many people in as I can in the day So I don't want to sit there holding a cool shot. I want to do this as quick as possible. So Last section I did say somebody Said that they used the wood brushes that's totally cool too. I get it Because of heat damage. I don't know. I mean everything causes heat damage including a blow dryer This brush being a little bit heated up You know, I don't think as long as you have heat protectant on the hair For me wooden brushes and bore bristle brushes and things like that Are definitely great for smoothing hair But when you want to create volume and you want to you need that little extra heat I think within the brush that's just my opinion But you know take it or leave it on that but If it works for you to use a wood brush, awesome. That's good So life of hair. Thank you for hanging out. Enjoy your day And gary I see I I need to do this work at a high-end salon one guy pins it like you but He does them upside down with a skinny round brush yet So here's here's another thing another little fun fact for you guys the bigger the round brush The less volume you get so a lot of people will be like, oh buy a big round brush And it'll give me tons of volume. It actually makes the hair flatter Which is great for smoothing hair, but if you want volume you need that little bend to the root So so definitely think about that when you choose which round brush you're going to use All right Go in here. I have a clip All right, so we got that clipped away. Now we can start working through the top of the head The top of head. I'm going to break up into four sections Sorry guys. I do everything Here set the cameras and see where we're at on the top. Sean, you're welcome If you're spot on about the more curl from the ceramic, yeah, for sure. I mean it only makes sense I wouldn't even say that's like a a unique thought it's definitely It just makes sense that a ceramic's going to get hotter So it's going to have more of a curling iron kind of effect or hold So here's the deal. So I break that into two and then I'm going to break this into two And I'm going to round brush this stuff on base forward But back off the face I want to you could get more volume going forward But I don't want to make this look like a helmet either. So it's kind of where we're staying away from And separate this one as well I just want to make sure that these saturated sections I'll actually just brush them out real quick because Then I can work quicker when I'm ready to take them So here brush this section out And I'll lay it towards the front on this side And I'll brush this section out I'll lay it towards the front on that side Now I've got two sections to work with in the back here Brush those out. I just don't want them sitting on the dry hair for too long All right So here we go. So now grab my round brush And we're going to work section one up in the air off Uh And on base See if I can keep this cord out of the way here So there we go. So now, uh, we let that kind of set let it cool a little bit Obviously, I can grab a clip from underneath and curl it up So we just I feel the brush to see where the heat's at on it And now I take the hair out. I'm just going to Wrap it and keep it on base Right here. I'll just clip down on base So now I can take the next section right here right next to it and then I can start round brushing that All right, cool. So I'm going to let that set for one sec The two sections that we're going to work on in the front part of the head here these two panels before the fringe I'm going to blow dry One Forward this way and then the other one forward the opposite way. We're working on a center parting That's really the reason for that So I'm going to let this kind of set down. This section is going to come across and over Just like that And then the fringe will be horizontal and go that way How are we doing so far? Let me know in the chat I wish the blow-dryers cord was longer on some of them. It drives me nuts. Yes And I did see somebody say have you ever tried a cordless blow-dryer? Tina's asking. Uh No, um, I was supposed to get one from one of the companies. I never I don't know if it ever came to fruition or whatever but um, now I never tried it and The problem is those cordless blow-dryers. They just don't have a long enough runtime yet and The battery has got to be so heavy. That's the biggest problem. So I'm going to lower this All right, so actually here's a little trick too. Uh, some of you guys know this trick Uh, let me go to the front camera But if you want to take out a brush and you're not going to wrap it up So let's say we finished our blow-dry here Um blow-drying like this, right? If I take the brush If I take the brush like this And I unravel it like that and kind of spin it out So the whole time I'm spinning it like that and it doesn't pull the curl out of the head So that's another little trick you guys can do if you don't want to If you're not going to pin it Up, then you don't want to just stretch and pull that curl out. All right. I've got My section from the front here So Catherine, this is the ergo 53 brush. So 53 ci you guys can Just search that on our website um A lot of people have been posting the link uh, if you guys are on facebook and you have the link to the brushes Could you just post it you og's out there? Help me out I also want to say thank you to all of you guys For posting so much and being interactive in our app. Uh, it's definitely picking up And we're getting the community really going in there So if you're looking for the coolest hairdresser community ever Go to the fse now app create a profile and start chatting it up sharing your work Sharing videos maybe your favorite fse videos you could share those you can go live talk to people Um, just have some fun with it. So download the app. I'm just gonna let that cool a little bit Like we have been Read your comments a little bit like I have been Is there a link you can post for us? So the blow dryer is paul mitchell neuro I forget exactly I mean, there's only a couple but go to you can go to paul mitchell pro Dot com or paul mitchell dot com and you can pick it up there um There we go. So I want to keep this on base guys Wrap it around on base Now we're going to do the same Thing on this side working this hair over this way. So one little Tip here because I'll get myself into a mess is to Once I'm going to start blow drying kind of low like maybe three inches from the root working the hair this way While I let this section cool, then as soon as I get to go to the root I'll just let this section down so that I don't tangle it up. That's that's the Goal there. All right. So now I'm going to let down this one Still not running my hands through it at all just moving it out of the way And then I can work a little closer to the root now in this section See the finish line that he's in gentlemen I'm going to set this back just a little bit Here let it cool now. We've got our fringe So I'm going to do the same thing with the fringe. So I'm going to let this down I'm going to break it out. So it's nice and organized and then I'm going to start brushing it forward round brushing it forward Break this up into two sections I'm going to split this fringe in half Straight across here. Just cut the triangle in half round brush this front part first Just working with a little less hair Nothing wrong with that Let's go over to this side. All right We're getting there one more so, uh I think it was diam was asking if I go through and hit it with a cool shot When it's all done to set it in I don't because It's kind of the process that I'm doing now So I'm letting this cool, uh, and then I set it And let it cool and then I'll eventually take it out. So I don't take it out until it's cool um So I don't really need to do that cool shot plus that cool shot to me if I add wind or air to that Uh, it's just really kind of helping to work that curl out. So my goal is never to To do anything that's going to Take that out of there. I just keep shifting whistling and shifting Those clips around as the sections are cooling Less clips less clips to take out at the end Obviously, this is not for like a runway. This is for reality. So Uh, just a quicker way of working through it I kept trying to read your guys's comments. So literally I was tangling myself up in that That section every time I would look up to read all of a sudden I would grab A chunk of it All right, so we'll let that cool for a sec We got blowout king in the building here To check out that youtube channel um All right, so now Again, don't want to touch it too much. Just kind of looking through make sure I got all my clips out and then Can start to let Some of this section go And we've got the last fringe section kind of let that go back All right So there's a couple different things that you can do to finish this out, right? I could push my client's hair forward And put some spray into it and then flip it back. You could let her lay back put it in that way I'm a big fan of the forward. So I feel like it gives me the most volume So let me go here I'm gonna tilt her forward like this so now and then I'm going to add in a little bit of hold me tight Which is one of my favorite hair sprays From paul mitral flexible style And I'll just lift her hair Lift her hair up And this is just to kind of start to set the hair. I'll tilt her head back up I'd really have my client probably like kick her hair back So I don't have to get it out of her face We're just gonna do that We're gonna remove her head. So I would have her tilt her head down Build it up and then I'd have her kick it back like this So then Then I'd push it forward See all that body Then Love big hair me too then Go in I definitely want it to be a little Less at the root there And like I said, this is like, you know Some Saturday night going out here or something. I don't know. Do we even do that anymore? But tons of volume fun little set Hope you guys liked it You can see all the movement how big it is tons of waves All right, cool Glad you guys like it Let me see I'll go over here Pop up to you guys back out So I'm glad you guys like it Let me know in the comments Esther, thank you so much See other people in person. Yeah, that's that's true. That is really funny Uh, Carmen. Thank you so much It's very myc. All right, we'll take it Uh, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Um Lynn, thank you so much Rebecca. You guys are awesome I always have a hard time to get the roots could you give me some tips to get into the roots Probably with the you're probably talking about with the blow dryer. Um, yeah, I gotta like so for me Whenever you're round brushing And you can't get quite to the root. You might have seen me, uh right here So you might have seen me when I was round brushing like this I would kind of hold the hair up and I would hit the root a little bit so it would kind of go like this Round brush And I would hold it And that to me just kind of helps, uh Get to the root get it keep the root nice and tight when you pull that tension on it Hit it with the round brush or with the blow dryer and then let it cool And then you kind of have you know that piece worked at the end so That for me is probably my my go-to there. All right guys I love the crisscross at the top learning something new awesome. Sarah That's exactly what it's all about, right? That's what it's all about So I'm glad you guys picked up some new things. Uh, really enjoyed hanging my hanging hanging my friday with you guys hanging whatever Back to work.
