Essential Hair Techniques for Beginners
1. Blow-Drying Basics
Achieving a smooth, voluminous blowout is easier than you think with the right approach:
- Start with clean, damp hair: Use a heat protectant to shield your hair from damage.
- Section your hair: Divide your hair into manageable sections for even drying.
- Use a round brush: To add volume and shine, use a round brush while blow-drying.
- Set with cool air: Once your hair is dry, finish with a blast of cool air to lock in the style.
For effortless styling, pair your blowout with the Oly Styler from Hoppy Beauty Co. This versatile tool helps you achieve smooth, frizz-free hair while maintaining volume.
2. Mastering the Curling Wand
Curled hair never goes out of style, but getting perfect curls can be tricky for beginners. Here’s how to master the art of curling:
- Choose the right wand: The Iron Curling Wand is a must-have for beginners. Its ergonomic design and adjustable heat settings make it easy to create various curl types.
- Section your hair: Work with small sections for more defined curls.
- Wrap and hold: Wrap your hair around the wand, hold for a few seconds, and release gently.
- Let it cool: Allow your curls to cool before brushing them out for a softer look.
3. Straightening Made Simple
For sleek, straight hair:
- Start with dry hair: Never use a straightener on wet hair to avoid damage.
- Use the right temperature: Adjust the heat based on your hair type.
- Work in sections: Straighten small sections at a time for better results.
- Don’t forget the roots: Glide the straightener close to the roots for a polished finish.
The Oly Styler doubles as a straightener, making it an all-in-one tool for beginners.
4. Creating Volume with Teasing
Adding volume to your hair can transform your look:
- Use a teasing comb: Choose a fine-toothed comb for better grip.
- Tease at the roots: Gently backcomb at the roots to create lift.
- Set with hairspray: Use a light-hold hairspray to maintain volume.
5. Finishing Touches
To elevate any hairstyle:
- Use serums or oils: Apply a small amount to tame flyaways and add shine.
- Set with hairspray: Choose a flexible hold hairspray to keep your style intact.
