A hairstyling movement is underway: the democratization of the blowout. Once attainable only by salon appointment, in today’s post-Dyson Airwrap world, a perfectly coiffed blowout is feasible for anyone with the right video tutorial and arsenal of at-home products. Though there isn’t necessarily a one-size-fits-all approach to achieving ’90s bounce, celebrity hairstylist and Fekkai ambassador Jenny Cho advises “blow-drying the hair upside-down and side-to-side using the curvature of the head to dry against gravity, so that when you flip over you’ve lifted the roots of the hair to get that extra volume.”
In short, size matters — and when it comes to hair, the bigger the better. Here, the latest bounce-boosting launches from Fable & Mane, Fekkai and more.
