Sienna’s At-Home Salon Finish Protocol
For a quick and easy at-home blowout, I recommend using a round brush and a heat-activated blow dryer to smooth out the hair and add some shine.
Start by sectioning the hair into small sections and blow-drying each section until it’s smooth and shiny.
Then, use a light hold hairspray to set the style in place.
For a more polished, sleek look, try using a curling iron to create loose, flowing curls.
Simply take small sections of hair and wrap them around the barrel of the curling iron, holding for a few seconds before releasing.
Repeat this process until you’ve curled all of your hair.
And then let it cool before running your fingers through it to loosen up the curls.
