Blowout Techniques for Long-Lasting, Big Voluminous Hair

Book a Big Voluminous Hair Blow Out?

You have two options: book a big voluminous hair blow out or dry your hair yourself. If you opt for the DIY route, start by thoroughly washing your hair. Make sure to scrub your scalp and allow the shampoo to flow down the hair shaft for a complete cleanse. Use professional products tailored to your hair type to protect your investment, ensuring your color remains vibrant and your locks look their best. Don’t overlook conditioning!

Day 1 & 2: Begin with minimal product. To maintain your big, voluminous hair for several days, apply a lightweight amount initially. Trust me, you’ll have more than enough product by day 7. Use whatever quantity helps your hair behave. A heat protectant like Dry Fast, a moisture booster like 5 in 1 (combined with Revive Oil), along with a volumizer such as Lift Up or Mousse Up, will work wonders. If you want to enhance fullness beyond your roots, Bodifier is an excellent choice, it swells the hair’s cuticle to create fullness from your roots down to your ends or wherever you decide to put it. Many products provide multiple benefits, and I highly recommend the 5 in 1 by J Beverly Hills for its moisture, strength, shine, heat protection, and anti-frizz properties.

Always apply products starting in the back at the ends, gradually working your way up if you get oily skip your roots and focus on your mid-length and ends. If you’re applying your volumizing product to your roots concentrate on your top, sides and crown. For drying, use your preferred brush—like the J Beverly Hills Ceramic round brush available in four sizes—or, if a flat brush suits you better, try Kent's natural and nylon bristle brush or an original Mason Pearson. Alternatively, you can let your hair air dry naturally. If desired, introduce a flat iron by J Beverly Hills or a curling iron by Hot Tools at any point; I personally prefer curls

Keep a shower cap handy for when you need it; you wouldn’t want all your hard work to go to waste. Achieving spectacular hair is what it’s all about!

Day 3 It’s Time to Revive Your Hair!

On Day 3, dealing with greasy roots can be a challenge. Begin by applying J Beverly Hills Dry Shampoo Style Refresher or K18 Airwash Dry Shampoo directly at the roots to absorb any excess oil. Don’t forget to brush it through your hair to achieve a fresh and voluminous appearance. It’s important to note that dry shampoo is designed to be brushed out; it’s not meant to just sit on your scalp looking powdery and caked.

Next, take a small amount of Revive Oil and apply it through your ends to add much-needed moisture and shine. If the dry shampoo has left your hair looking a bit dull, the Revive Oil will restore its luster. This combination not only revitalizes your hair but also creates a fun texture that’s great for styling.

If you're a blonde, this is the perfect moment to enhance your color, as dry shampoo can help brighten those gorgeous highlights. Additionally, if you've been around smoke or food, dry shampoo effectively eliminates unwanted odors while imparting a fresh scent.

If dry shampoo isn’t your preference, there’s a fantastic alternative to tackle oiliness: simply spray Hold Me Lite on your oily roots and blow dry it out. The alcohol in the hairspray works to counteract the oil without leaving any white flakes or buildup behind, giving you a clean, refreshed look.

Days 4 & 5 Continue Reviving Your Hair

Maintain the revival of your hair by applying more dry shampoo as you did on Day 3, but only if necessary. If your hair is looking a bit dull, consider adding J Beverly Hills Shine Spray or an oil such as Blonde Gloss to enhance the glossiness. If you'd like to retain that lovely texture, a light spritz of Hold Me Lite hairspray will provide both shine and hold.

For a quick refresh, re-curl sections of your hair using a J Beverly Hills flat iron or a Hot Tools curling iron to restore that bouncy look to your locks. These simple adjustments can dramatically transform your style while keeping it fresh and fabulous!

Days 6 & 7 Congratulations on Reaching Day Six or Seven!

At this point, your hair has likely found its rhythm, maintaining its shine without the need for a full wash. Continue using your Revive Oil or Blonde Gloss as part of your fresh hair routine—these are perfect for sustaining that healthy appearance. If you’re considering a quick re-blow dry, introduce a volume spray like Bodifier to help set your style, or opt for Matte Texture Spray for a more tousled look.

Personally, I often find myself putting my hair up at this stage; however, if my hair still looks great and doesn’t require a cut, I can easily keep it down for a bit longer. Embrace the natural evolution of your hair during these days—it’s all about appreciating that beautiful transformation. The time saved by washing less frequently is liberating, giving you the freedom to experiment with different looks with minimal effort.

If you’re new to this routine, it may take a little practice, but the enjoyment and ease you gain are undoubtedly rewarding. Now, all that's left is to shampoo and repeat the process!
