We are going to show you the perfect way to blow out your natural hair to open different opportunities for you to style your hair.
The tools that’ll you will need:

Step 1:
It is very important to start with freshly cleansed and conditioned hair to stop any
old product buildup or oil from getting the smooth and soft hair. As you’ll lose
some of the moisture from hair while heat styling, it is necessary to use a
hydrating conditioner. While conditioning your hair, use a detangling brush or a
wide-tooth comb to detangle your hair.
Step 2:
After rinsing your hair, take leave-in conditioner and apply it to your hair while it’s
still wet. The leave-in conditioner should be lightweight so that it doesn’t weigh
down your hair during the blowout. Then comes the most important product,
which is a heat-protecting serum, it is needed to lock in all the moisture to your
hair.
Depending on the amount and length of your hair, take a dime or quarter-sized dollop of serum onto your palms and after rubbing your palms together, run your fingers down the length and through your hair to spread it evenly, making sure all the hair is coated with it.
Step 3:
To separate the hair, you need to section your hair into 4 to 6 sections and secure
it with clips. Now starting from the root, gently pull each section down to the ends
to stretch the hair so that you don’t need to use too much heat during the
blow-dry. You can also use the blow dryer if you need some extra stretching, but
make sure to put the dryer in the lowest and coolest setting.
Step 4:
Now for Natural Blowout Hairstyle blowout, you can choose a blow dryer with a comb attached to it if you are a beginner , so you can go for a paddle brush if you are already accustomed to the heat tools.
Set your blow dryer on medium heat , and don’t go up to the highest heat as overheating can damage your hair. Angle your brush and gently run through each section of your hair, starting from the bottom to the ends. Remember to be gentle to prevent any damage or hair breakage.
If you want a more voluminous look, flip all your hair after blow-drying and quickly blow-dry the roots with a dryer and then flip it back. To keep the look in shape, go over the hair one last time with the cool shot setting on your blow dryer.
