[Haircare.com Recommendation] The correct way to dry your hair
Hair dryer → leave-in treatment → towel dry → brush
In fact, the way you dry your hair makes the biggest difference when it comes to keeping it looking nice.
No matter how good the shampoo you use, if you dry your hair incorrectly, it will likely become more damaged.
Haircare.com recommends the following steps for drying your hair:
1. Towel drying - an important step before using a hair dryer
(Note: This is the first step in the process, but the article explains it in detail later for easier understanding.)
First of all, the trick is to not scrub your hair but to press it against your hair to absorb the moisture.
● Points
-
Press gently between towels
-
From roots to ends, apply until no water droplets fall.
-
Scrubbing can cause the cuticle to peel off
If you towel dry your hair thoroughly, it will take less time to dry with a hair dryer and will cause less heat damage.
2. Leave-in treatments – protect your hair from heat
This is an item you should definitely use as a "protective film" before drying.
● Points
-
Apply to the middle to ends of the hair
-
Milk moisturizes, while oil improves shine and texture
-
Many types use the heat of a hair dryer to help the ingredients blend in.
● Why is it important?
It protects your hair from the heat, friction, and humidity of the hair dryer, keeping it shiny and manageable.
The more damaged your hair is, the more careful you need to be in this area.
3. Hair dryer - Dry from the roots to save time and make hair fluffy
The actual dry step.
The roots of hair are the hardest to dry, so the rule of thumb is to dry from the roots → mid-lengths → ends .
● Points
-
First, dry the roots thoroughly
-
It is enough if the ends of your hair are about 80% dry.
-
Finally, tighten the cuticles with cold air.
● Why is it important?
If the roots remain wet, bacteria can easily grow, causing odor and loss of volume.
Finishing with cold air will increase shine and durability.
4. Brushing - Finishing touches after drying
Once your hair is completely dry, brush it out.
● Points
-
Leave-in treatment oil spreads evenly
-
It aligns the cuticles and gives a natural shine
-
Also helps prevent bedhead
In particular, we recommend brushes that are cushioned, such as boar bristle mixes, rather than just nylon brushes.
summary
If you do it in the right order, you can see amazing changes in your hair even if you dry it every day.
Towel dry → Leave-in treatment → Hair dryer → Brushing
