BLOW the other guests away at your next event.
A salon blow-dry will set you back around £30.
But trim that cost with these tricks you can ’do at home.
BACK TO BASICS: After washing hair, ensure it’s 80 per cent dry before styling.
Use a soft cotton T-shirt to absorb excess water — it is better at preventing frizz than a towel. Then divide hair into sections, so you can blow-dry evenly.
BRISTLE DO NICELY: Pick your hairbrush carefully. A round brush is used by most hairdressers to add volume and shine. GHD brushes are from £17.85 with 15 per cent off at ghdhair.com, but Wilko has a great budget option for £3.
LOOK SHARK: eBay’s Refurbished outlet has salon-worthy tech with a year’s guarantee for far less than the RRP.
From 10am today until 10am this Thursday, July 6, get 25 per cent extra off the refurbished Shark Style iQ Hair Dryer and Style, usually £119 (RRP £199) but £89.25 with the code SHARKJULY25.
STYLE GUILE: Double up with a hairdryer that is also a hair styler and look for slightly older models to save.
The BaByliss Big Hair 2885U Spinning Brush styler is £50 at Boots, but the BaByliss Flawless Volume Hot Air does a similar job and is £35.
George at Asda also has a version for £15.
