No matter what hair type, texture or problem your client may have, this is the starting point of your blow-dry. Begin with this and adapt later, depending on your clientsâ needs. Itâs your first step to a fabulous blow-dry
Step 1:Â Towel drying
Gently towel dry the hair. Try blotting rather than rubbing the hair to minimise damage and tangling.

Step 2:Â Detangling
Detangle the hair using the Salon Elite detangling hairbrush. Start detangling at the ends of the hair first to avoid tugging. Work your way up to the root until all the hair is detangled and you can easily brush from roots to ends. When knots and tangles have been removed, brush through following the shape of the head in downward strokes or turn the hairbrush around and draw the hair outwards.

Step 3:Â Sectioning
Once detangled, section the hair into horseshoe sections. Start at the nape of the neck and create blow-drying sections that measure the width of The Blow-Styling Round Tool tip-to-tip.

Step 6:Â Drying the ends of the hair
When drying the ends of the hair, rotate The Blow-Styling Round Tool in a corkscrew motion and change the direction of the hairdryer to create a bouncy curl. Do not completely wrap or roll the hair around the tool â a simple rotation is all you need.
