My Top 3 Styling Products for Effortless Blowouts at Home

If you love a fresh hairstyle but often feel pressed for time, you are not alone. Many of us wish to achieve that salon-quality look without spending hours at the salon. Fortunately, with the right products, you can confidently create an impeccable blowout right in your bathroom. Here are my top three styling products that make styling hair at home a breeze.

Prep with a hydrating spray and blowout balm

Amika Hydro Rush

To achieve long-lasting hydration, the initial step for a blowout that lasts is to incorporate moisture immediately after towel drying, similar to applying a moisturizer to your skin. Amika's Hydro Rush Intense Moisture Leave-In Conditioner serves as an excellent starting point; it provides hydration, detangles, and enhances shine. Just a few sprays are all you need for incredibly soft and hydrated hair. It consistently leaves my hair (and my clients' hair) bouncy and shiny.

Briogeo Farewell Frizz

The second step in my routine is applying Briogeo's Blow Dry Perfection & Heat Protectant Crème. This balm provides amazing 48-hour frizz control and hydration. It also serves as a heat protectant and is silicone-free! Having a product with a heat protectant is crucial in my hair care regimen. I appreciate all-in-one bottles, particularly because they help clear up counter space! This means less damage and less clutter for me.

With professional products, less is more. I typically don't use more than six sprays of the leave-in spray or more than a dime-sized amount of the balm. Too much product will weigh the hair down.

If you find that most hydrating products weigh your hair down, use these products when the hair is a little wetter and squeeze out the excess with a microfiber towel to remove residual product. The best tip is to focus on a light touch for the best results.

Finishing Touch with Hair Spray

Kenra Perfect Medium Spray

Lastly, no blowout is complete without a high-quality finishing hairspray. Kenra's Perfect Medium Spray has the best balance of hold and flexibility. If I want extra volume, you could always add a root lifting spray, but for a daily blowout style I find this product works great as an all-around spray.

Once I am satisfied with my blowout, I lightly mist my hair with hairspray to ensure it stays in place all day. I'll focus on the roots for extra lift. I appreciate that a good hairspray can keep flyways at bay while allowing my hair to move naturally—a perfect balance of flexibility and hold.

Transform Your Styling Routine

Incorporating these three styling products into a routine can truly change any at-home blowout experience. With a great hydrating leave-in, a multitasking blowout balm, and a flexible hairspray, my clients can achieve professional-looking results just like they left the salon.

Whether you're preparing for a special occasion or simply aiming to look fabulous every day, consider these must-have products for your hair care collection. You might find that styling at home becomes not only possible but also enjoyable!

Enjoy styling! With the right products, you can achieve that perfect blowout look, embracing the freedom and creativity of doing your own hair. I've included links to the products, and I also have them available at the salon.
