What’s your beauty superpower?
Framing your eyes with pristine wingedeyelinerin one flick?
Painting dottednail artlike you’re Yayoi Kusama?
Mine is no secret: I can make ablowoutlast… and last and last.
But the tricks I’ve cultivated can help anyone extend a blowout.
Ahead, how one at-home blowout lasted five days, plus the products that powered me through.
Day One
Since my blowout is freshand at its bounciestI wear my hair down.
That’s the look during the day.
I also keepSlip Slipsilk Skinny Scrunchiesat the ready.
Two loops of these hair ties will hold back my hairand not leave behind a telltale bend.
But if you have as much hair as I door morenot just any style cap will do.
(Dont get me started on the tiny, plastic versions you’ll find at most hotels.)
Before an event or dinner with girlfriends, I whip out myDyson Airwrap.
The curling barrels are strictly a touch-up tool for my thick hairbut I can always count on consistent results.
(Take a peek at the demo below.)
And then, Im out the door.
A sharp middle part separated into high pigtails is another favorite.
