Do you Blow dry or Air dry your hair?
I prefer to air dry my hair unless I am in a hurry.
Both methods of drying the hair have their advantages & disadvantages, and there are proper and improper ways of doing both.
Blow drying the hair is the most cont way of doing it, and since most of us don't have much time to do it in the morning,it is the prefer method. When you blow dry your hair you can also add volume to the hair. Blow drying is convenient but also dangerous to your hair when over done since it can make your hair very brittle.
- When you blow dry your hair make sure its not soaking. ( blot the H20 out with a towel first)
- Do not hold the dryer too close to your head.
- Keep it at least 6 inches from your hair & move the dryer constantly around your head.
-Protect the outer strands of your hair from being over- dried by blow drying your hair with your hair hanging upside down.
Air drying is usually done by people who have short or low-maintenance hairstyles, or by people with curly hair.(like me!) air drying does not subject the hair to excessive heat. Therefore, the hair is not as susceptible to damage as hair that is blow dried.
-your hair is at its weakest when wet, so do not rub your hair dry with a towel, blot. friction caused by rubbing the hair with a towel will make the hair brittle & cause it to break
-be careful not to tug or pull at your hair that much when it is still wet.
-Once the water is blotted out of the hair, fluff it out with your fingers.
So it is completely your choice based on your own lifestyle and preferences wether you choose to air dry or blow dry.
just remember that your hair is fragile so be careful when handling it!
