Put the Squeeze On
Once you're out of the shower, gently press chunks of hair with a cotton T-shirt; it's so soft, it won't ruffle the hair's outer layer and bring on—gasp!—fuzzies the way a rough towel can.
Flip Out
It's best to blow-dry hair someplace other than your steamy bathroom, to escape the humidity. Tip your head over, and dry roots as you run your fingers through hair, Gurgov recommends. Straighten up while hair is still a bit damp.
Divide and Conquer
Apply another round of product; during hair-raising weather, it's key to keeping frizz under control. If you have straight hair that could use fullness, go for mousse. If your hair is wavy or curly, reach for a straightening balm.
Starting at the back of your head, use a wide-tooth comb to separate hair into four sections—the top, the sides and the back.
Bring the Heat
Unclip the back section of hair. With a medium round brush, lift a 2-inch piece from the roots. Keep the dryer about 1 inch above as you firmly pull the brush out.
"A shiny blowout comes from tension you create with your brush as you dry".
Cool It
When a piece of hair is dry, blast it with a shot of cool air to seal in sleekness. Repeat until all the hair in that section is dry. Then go through steps 3 and 4 with the left, right and top sections.
When they're all dry, mist with a flexible-hold hairspray. That's all you do—so sexy!
