3 Ways To Blow Dry Hair To Achieve Various Degrees of Volume

Learn more about how to achieve perfect volume for your hairstyles on the Sam Villa blog
www.samvilla.com/blog/3-ways-...
The foundations we learned in hair school included the principles of setting the hair with rollers. Reach back…do you remember what you were taught?
• Off Base
• Half Off Base
• On Base
These principles taught us how to achieve various degrees of volume based on the placement of the roller in relation to where it sits at various degrees from the scalp.
Let’s take a look at how these same principles relate to blow-drying the hair. Guess what… they are the same! We are just using brushes instead of rollers and a blow dryer instead of a hood dryer.
Blow-dry’s can be one of the most pivotal services we perform for our guests. We can enhance or destroy a great haircut or we can “brush-a-flage” a terrible haircut into something beautiful (of course it would be someone else’s terrible haircut). To perform these works of magic we need the tools, product and the skills to do so!
Professional Tools of choice:
• Sam Villa Professional Ionic Blow Dryer w/narrow Nozzle www.samvilla.com/products/blo...
o We choose the narrow nozzle for the most concentrated air flow
• Sam Villa 1” Thermal Styling Brush www.samvilla.com/products/bru...
o The diameter of the brush you choose is up to you based on the amount of curl or wave you desire for the end result - smaller brush = more curl - larger brush = less curl
• Small setting clips

This has helped me a whole lot. When watching these videos, it is often mistaken that all this is taught in beauty school, when sometimes it's NOT.

[@candicebergstrom4490]

This is one of the most informative tutorials for adding volume & curl with a blow drier. Awesome! Such a fantastic teacher.👨🏽‍🏫❣TFS!!!👌👏

[@onyxfaith]

Thank you for this! It's extremely helpful to know when we're trying to blow dry our own hair as well.

[@cola1030]

Awesome. Just started working at a redken elite salon. Been doing hair for 18 years and I have to re-learn blow drying this really helps when trying to teach an old dog new tricks. Thank you for all your free education!!!

I love it!!!! Back to the Basics!!!! ❤️✂️❤️

[@joycerussell9390]

I love this video. It is how I blow dry my hair. It's easy for me to keep the curl because I have naturally curly hair. I'm 58 years old, and have only found 1 hairdresser who was able to do a proper body blow dry for me (I had her for 6 years and then moved). No one has ever done it the way I want before this or since. It's ALWAYS flat on top when I leave. The only reason I bother having them blow dry it is because it comes with the cut. I don't even need the Guts10, and I still leave with it flat on top.

[@kalimatayyeba7746]

olga vargas unfortunately, we're not a color company so the education doesn't translate that well. There are lots of amazing colorists out there putting out videos and we recommend you check them out. Guy Tang is sharing a lot of amazing color videos right now! I strongly recommend that you check out his youtube channel! Good luck & thanks for watching!
