Essentials for a Perfect Blowout with Froth Blowout Foam
There’s nothing like the confidence boost of a perfect blowout — smooth, bouncy, full of life. While getting it done in a salon is always a treat, achieving a professional-looking blowout at home is completely doable with the right products, techniques, and a little insider knowledge. Here’s everything you need to know:
Key Products for a Salon-Quality Blowout
The foundation of any great blowout is using the right styling products. Start with a lightweight blowout foam to give your hair fullness, bounce, and soft hold. One of my go-to favorites is from my collaboration with Milbon&, the Froth Blowout Foam, which also doubles as a heat protectant. It creates body without weighing hair down, making it perfect for a voluminous, long-lasting style. Pair it with Milbon’s Brilliant Polishing Oil, a lightweight oil for the ends to add hydration and shine.
How to Apply Froth for Best Results
- First start with damp towel-dried hair.
- Dispense Milbon& Froth Blowout Foam based on hair length: 1 golf ball size for short hair, 2 for medium hair, and 3 for long hair. Add more as needed.
- Apply Froth using your hands to rake the product through your hair, distributing it evenly from roots to ends.
- After applying, use a wide-tooth comb to ensure even saturation throughout the hair. This step helps create a strong foundation for a full, bouncy blowout that looks effortless.
How Climate Affects Your Blowout
In humid climates, styled hair can easily frizz. To protect your blowout, use Milbon’s Humidity Blocking Oil to help lock in smoothness. Finish with Milbon’s Extra Strong Hold Hairspray 10 to set the style and shield it from moisture. Sealing your style properly is essential to keep all your hard work intact.
Common Blowout Mistakes to Avoid
One of the biggest blowout mistakes is over-drying or under-drying your hair: Over-drying can make your hair stiff and prone to damage. Under-drying leaves moisture trapped, causing styles to fall flat faster. Aim for a complete, thorough dry without overdoing it, using a boar bristle brush, such as the ones from ATO, and prep with products like Froth Blowout Foam to keep your hair healthy and your style lasting longer.
