There was a point in my life when I hated my hair; blow-drying took forever and left my hair looking like a poofy mess. That was before I was introduced to a flat iron and my fabulous stylist. I have now been able to replicate the salon quality hair routine at home with four essential products. This is for any girl who has thick, wavy, coarse, or even any type of hair!
When you get out of the shower and lightly towel dry your hair, apply Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum starting from your roots to your tips. Since I have have a lot of hair, I use 4-5 pumps. This serum helps reduce the blow drying time and leaves your hair feeling soft.
While you’re blow drying, use a Black Velvet Tunnel Vent Brush from ULTA. It’s less than $10 and a great brush. The construction of the brush lets air flow through and leaves your hair softer. The ball tips massage your scalp too!
When you finish blow drying either all or most of your hair (if I’m in a rush, I only dry the top few layers), part your hair into pieces and use the flat iron to straighten it. I use the Chi hot iron. It’s pricey but sooo worth it.
Once I’m all done with the flat iron, I spray another Paul Mitchel product called The Shine on my brush and then brush it through my hair. By spritzing your brush first, you prevent it from caking or going on too thick on your hair. It allows you to control the application and give you head another nice little massage in the meantime.
This may seem like a lot of steps, but I get my hair done in under 30 minutes! These are all salon quality products that you can use in your own home and find in most stores.
