How To: Use Hair Straighteners to fake a Blow Dry

Before

After

Lets be honest were not all celebrities and get a blow dry every day, however here is my step by step guide of how to fake that 'blow dry' look with GHD's. In the past i have used Corioliss , Jose Eber and pretty much every other straightener. The best for my hair is GHDs they create the best look and are also good to use when curling hair - not too thin & not too thick. The GHD IV styler is the 'perfect tool for quick, effortless straightening and easy curls and waves. Suitable for all hair types and lengths..'

STEP 1) Make sure your hair looks super shiny add to your hair leave in conditioner when wet and whilst towl drying it.

2. Part your hair from your ears upwards as above. If you have thin then part the hair from just under your ear.

3. From the bottom half of your hair, divide it again, taking small sections to ensure the sleek brush that bit of hair then straighten them as normal. Do this to every part ensuring it wont be Knotty. Bring the ends in, as if your about to curl then in 180 degrees.

4. Do the exact same on the other side of the head.

5. Get rid of the Clip or Hair band then part your hair up again this time in between your parting and your ears and repeat the steps above.

6) now get rid of the Clip or Hair band for good and take a medium part of hair then straighten normally until you've got half way through your hair. (ensure you
direct the straightener from your face and pulling it round in a half moon motion, curling the ends away from your face.) - SO YOU DON'T BURN YOURSELF!

7. For those who have a fringe style it as you usually do.
