Blow-drying is part of the daily routine for many of us. Often it has to be done very quickly, which leads to mistakes and damages your hair.
Because these five mistakes we blow dry can damage your hair.
You blow dry straight away
Straight out of the shower and blow-dry straight away? D rather not! It is better to express your hair beforehand and wrap it in a towel to form a turban and leave it on your head for at least five minutes. This soaks up most of the moisture. On the other hand, if you blow-dry right away, you need a lot more blow-drying power and heat to get your hair dry – and that makes the hair brittle.
You rub your hair dry
Never rub your hair dry with a towel! Because this is how the outermost layer of hair is roughened – the hair breaks off more easily and becomes straw-like. If you have a particularly fine and sensitive hair structure, it is best to express your hair with a cotton T-shirt and then wrap it in a towel.
You brush your hair through before blow-drying
In order not to destroy the hair structure, you should only brush your hair when it is dry. So before washing and only afterward after they have been blow-dried completely. This is how they get nice and shiny.
You don’t blow dry completely
For lack of time, you often just blow dry your hair or stop even though a few small strands are still damp. However, this prevents the hair from shining nicely! Because when the damp strands rub against the dry ones, the hair structure is roughened and the mane looks dull.
You stop the hot air
In the end, you should always blow dry with the cold air function. This seals the surface and gives it a shine.
