Bouncy blowouts have been trending for a while, with no signs of slowing down, and the hair-obsessed creating enviable, frizz-free looks that would make a ‘Wild Things’-era Denise Richards extremely jealous. While there are many popular ways to achieve the look, a recent method that shows no sign of slowing down is using a thermal round brush, and one of TikTok’s favorites, Amika’s Blowout Babe, is back in stock.
One of the first blowout brushes to go viral on TikTok, the Blowout Babe thermal round brush has a 1.5-inch ceramic barrel that heats up to a hair-safe 365 degrees so you can smooth, wave, or flip your hair, creating a frizz-free look. With a heat-resistant handle, this hair straightening brush is designed for softly styling dry hair for a polished effect. The results? Shiny, frizz-free hair. It’s also perfect for post-gym touch-ups or styling between wash days: just apply dry shampoo and heat protectant before using.
Shoppers are obsessed with this hair styling tool, with 5,400 hearts on Sephora’s website. “For me, this is a true [game] changer!,” one shopper raves. “It got hot enough and works well with my natural hair and extensions… [it has] provided volume, curl, and shine. [It’s the] best purchase I could have made!” The last time it sold out, it had a 50,000-person waitlist, selling out nine times in 2023. We suspect with this restock, you’ll want to hurry!
