If you want your blowout to last as long as possible, make sure you communicate your goals to your stylist so they can choose the best products for long-lasting results. The few days following your initial blowout appointment, our stylists at the Z Hair Academy cosmetology school in Lee’s Summit recommend applying added product to help extend the life of your blowout. However, avoid using too much product, such as excessive hairspray or dry shampoo, as these can quickly mix with your natural hair oils and create added grease around the scalp. If you are blow-drying your hair at home, invest in professional-quality products designed explicitly with long-lasting results in mind!

After visiting the salon for a blowout appointment, it’s important you sleep comfortably to help maintain the shape of your blowout. Keep your hair from falling flat by opting for a silk or satin pillowcase and scrunchie! Not only will this help keep you from craning your neck all night, but the satin and silk material won’t cause creasing or excessive bedhead. Tie your hair up with your scrunchie neatly, and preserve your style all night long. Then, you only need a little product and a light brush to extend your blowout the next day!

What is the best way to preserve your blowout treatment? Schedule regular salon appointments as often as necessary for your specific hair. While using high-quality products and exercising proper maintenance habits can extend your blowout for a week or so, scheduling frequent blowouts will help train your hair to do what you want it to! Eventually, your hair will begin to adapt to the desired shape, and you can go longer between appointments. Remember, you don’t need a special occasion to schedule an appointment!
