Achieving a flawless, salon-quality blow dry at home doesn’t have to be complicated. With the right products, tools, and technique, you can enjoy voluminous, smooth, and healthy-looking hair every day. Here’s our step-by-step guide featuring De Lorenzo’s trusted, vegan-certified products.

Step 1: Start with Clean, Prepped Hair

A great blow dry begins with a clean canvas. Use De Lorenzo Accentu8 Shampoo and Conditioner to gently cleanse and add body to your hair without weighing it down. This volumising duo is enriched with Baobab Protein, Seaweed, and Ginseng to boost natural volume and texture.

After cleansing, gently towel dry your hair to remove excess moisture. Apply De Lorenzo Prescriptive Solutions Leave-In Moisturiser to nourish, detangle, and protect against environmental damage while providing a smooth foundation for styling.

Step 2: Protect Your Hair

Before reaching for any heat tools, it’s essential to shield your strands. Mist your hair evenly with De Lorenzo Bond Defence Thermal Protection Spray. Formulated with Argan Oil and Bond Linking Technology, it defends against heat damage up to 220°C while strengthening hair bonds for enhanced resilience.

Step 3: Section for Success

Clip your hair into manageable sections. Working in sections not only makes the blow dry process easier but also ensures a consistent and professional finish.

Step 4: The Tools Matter

Use a high-quality blow dryer with adjustable heat settings and a concentrator nozzle. A ceramic round brush is perfect for adding volume and creating smooth, polished ends.

Begin with the bottom layers, holding the dryer at a downward angle to smooth the cuticle and reduce frizz. Use the round brush to lift roots for volume, and roll it under at the ends for a salon-perfect bounce.

Step 5: The Finishing Touch

Lock in your style with a light mist of De Lorenzo Vapour Mist for natural, soft hold, or Sandstorm if you want a more textured, voluminous finish. For an extra glossy effect, smooth a few drops of shine serum over your hair to keep it looking sleek and fresh throughout the day.
