I'm a retired hairstylist, and this is the best how-to quick blow dry video ever! Especially the application of product. It's such an important skill. I used to hold a complimentary "Blow Dry 101" class twice a year for my personal clients so they could learn how to do their hair. There is no point sending a woman home with a kick-a$$ hair cut that she can't replicate at home on her own. Well done!
I have light curls and frizz. I tried different techniques of blow drying. I still haven't found the perfect method for myself, but have gotten better. I just wish hairstylists would show me how to blow my hair wavy. My hairstylist always straightens my hair, so asking him for tips doesn't work. I only dry the front and try to let the back dry naturally. Any suggestions?
newgrove.house I usually just need forward and flip my head upside down and blow-dry it that way. It's that bad or are there any downsides to doing it that way newgrove.house
I've never been able to do my hair well, I was never taught really either and my hair is too short now to do much with. Once I grow it out enough though, taking even just a blow drying class would be amazing. I wonder if something like that is offered where I live. I need help! lol
+Georgia Gaul Like she said you should dry the hair when the hair is wet with a hot dryer. It is hard work but you have to do it section by section. I should know. Hairdressers seem to be too lazy to do anything except straighten it.
Thank you so much for this video! I have a developmental disorder and had never been shown how to correctly blow dry my hair and would always get embarrassing assumptions that I just wasn't washing my hair well enough. Although I went to extra methods to make sure that wasn't the problem. And nobody bothered to investigate further to help me solve the mystery and understand what the problem actually was. Until I happened upon your video this morning, I had no idea I was actually making two blow dry mistakes. It was a huge help and changed everything just to see what to do to fix it!
Kate, I found you last summer after I had surgery and was recuperating ( nothing major). This type of video is why I decided to follow you!! You have such a wonderful personality and are a fantastic teacher (my occupation). I am over 60 and never knew how to do things with my hair until I started following you. Thank you so very much. 💐
I'm 36 and never knew there was a wrong way. It totally makes sense no wonder I have frizz and static is horrible thank you for this video it taught me alot!!♥️♥️♥️
Thank you so much for this!!! I’ve never had a big sister or anybody to help me with my hair before. I’m 26 years old and I just got my first EVER hair dryer today!!. I did my research and invested in a salon quality dryer and I’m so excited to use it tonight! Thanks for these tips 💛💛💛
A very well-made video! A tip I always tell my clients is don’t forget to use COLD air at the end to lock in the style and seal the hair cuticle. 👍 Love this! 😘❤️
You have taught me so much! I cannot wait to do my hair tomorrow. I have curly hair so it very dry because of the tools and hair color, highlights etc. I bought the Dyson dryer and love it. It’s not cheap but I earned it. I had breast cancer and beat it
This is awesome, Kate! Learning the blow dry in the direction of hair has been a game changer for me! My hair looks so much sleeker and less frizzy since I started blowing dry the right way!
I'm about to wash my hair right now so this came in right on time! :) I'm the person with super frizzy/curly hair that you mentioned and I can attest to the fact that going medium heat gives me a MUCH better result than full heat. If you're fighting frizz the last thing you want is burnt hair!! Thanks for always being on-point with the tips
Kate, I"ve been watching you for years! My hair is FINALLY long enough to do a lot of your styles! When I first started watching, my hair is in a pixie cut and I'm so happy I can do these styles!!! Thank you!
Great tips. I've never blow dried my hair but now that I'm over 40 and my hair has thinned out I'm playing around with blow drying to create more volume.
Watched this last night. Tried it this morning. I can't believe how quick this worked. I've been wasting my life doing the sections and round brush !!!!. I'm walking around with the best hair. I'm basically feeling released from a chore I hated. Thank you , Thank you...Did I thank you ?? 😁
Lol! Love her mild sarcasm. I also blowdry with the direction of the hair whorl on my forehead and then flip opposite direction for the part...that creates natural volume instead of fighting the circular pattern my hair has. I've learned long ago to work with my natural hair pattern instead of trying to make it look like someone else. It also means I gave up on a center part long ago. Turns out, off center makes you look younger anyways :)
Tip for you to add in video. When you apply a product, especially something with a consistency and oily texture like a serum, apply in the nape/lower back area region underneath first before the front, sides, and the top. Reasons, 1) that area is usually alway the thickest area on the scalp, and if you accidentally put too much product on, that area can compensate for a little extra if this would happen and it's the hidden area of view. 2) Reduces getting other hair wet if washing is your option, then you won't wet other sections of the hair wet, only back snd under area. 3) Again, least noticeable if overused the product.
So glad to have found your video…I’m 64 and trying not be a frump! Fine, thin hair that lands in a frumpy look because I can’t get the volume. Two things I picked up right away…PUT THE PRODUCT EVERYWHERE and BLOWDRY IN THE DIRECTION IT GROWS. I’ve had two beautiful blowouts and great no-wash in between days. Thank you…you are my new hero!
I just tried your bang blow drying technique of blow drying the bang area in the opposite direction of my part, and then blow drying it forward to get that swoop and softness look, and it almost worked! I had to watch that part of your video multiple times to try and understand your technique and I'm hoping with more practice, my medium length hair might look like yours. Thank you for the great tips on your hair tutorials!
I'm amazed... I've been drying my hair all these years the wrong way... tried your tips today - hair looks like I've stepped out of a salon. Thanks for great tutorial I didn't know I needed! 😃👍
I’ve been growing my hair and getting into an awful tangle to the point where I just tie it back! This video (along with the one using straighteners) was very helpful and given me good basic instruction to get the best from my dryer. Thank you.
Great video. I was one of those people blow drying all different ways. I have thick coarse hair that fizzes terribly and after watching your video how to apply product and blow drying has helped tremendously. My hair is more soft, manageable and frizz free before styling. Thank you!
This is the first time I have ever seen any of your videos. You show much needed info on hair styling. It is hard to find someone who will show you where you can duplicate. Great job. I'm a new subscriber. Keep up the good work.
She's right. That WILL burn the hair and create split ends and dryness. I always use just the warm setting and it gets dry quickly. I go by this...if it burns your skin, it'll burn your hair. dryness in the hair destroys body and bounce. I'm a Wen girl and using ONLY Wen and her techniques make my hair so amazing. I use a paddle brush to pre dry and then go to round brush on mids and ends when it's almost dry. Comes out salon quality every day!
Jean Keats How long have you used wen and how long did it take for you to notice a change in your hair? I used it but it says to go it twice. That would be using do much product and more money bc you'd run out quicker.
Hi Danielle, if your hair is color treated and dry on the ends, then I would do a good trim. If your hair is in decent shape then you will see a difference after one use. Wen can be used as, shampoo, conditioner, leave in conditioner, shave cream, body cleanser, detangler, body lotion, all in one bottle. Yes, you have to do cleanse, rinse and repeat because it does not lather. I've had people approach me, total strangers, exclaiming, YOUR HAIR IS BEAUTIFUL! One girl was following me in a parking lot, to a store and just looking, I turned around and was about to say, can I help you? When she said the above and asked me what I did or if I just left a salon. I was not in a good mood at the time and when this happened, I smiled and said, I'm a Wen girl! She said does it really work? I said you tell me! Anyway, it depends on the length of your hair. Short hair, six pumps first cleanse, six pumps, second. If hair is shoulder length, I would do eight and eight to make sure ends and mids are covered. Long hair, Ten crown, ten, mids, ten ends. Use splash of water with each application, massage in, add another splash to get it emulsified and CREAMY, the scents Chaz has are heavenly! His body treatments are amazing too. Yes, it's a bit pricey but it does do all the things mentioned above and his body treatment, the results will blow you away. Wen does not strip the hair of natural oils. Lather is the enemy. Yes, lather cleanses, but strips and leaves hair parched with split ends. After you cleanse with Wen, you'll see your hair will be soft, supple, incredible shine and body, like hair should be. I've been a Wen girl almost nine years now. Go to QVC's site under beauty then choose Wen and see all the goodies! QVC does easy pay at times, this way you do small payments, no interest, just pay for what you buy. To learn more, go to chaz dean store and learn who he is and why he created Wen. It really IS amazing. I love it so much I want to tell the world! LOL! Thank you for asking me. I hope you love Wen as much as I do.
found this an amazing help. Never blow dried my hair because never knew how. Will from time to time now I know how to do it properly. Think this lesson should be given in schools, along with other simple life lessons
Thanks! I don't use much product (might now that I heard about your "lift" products), it was nice to see how to apply them correctly. I do pretty much everything right but I did get some valuable tips to try.
Your video is a revelation to me, especially as far as the front is concerned. A voluminous hair dryer hairstyle without a round brush, that borders on magic! Thank you, I love it! (y)
You are so cute! You always make me smile or laugh. I’ve been following you since 2014 and by far you are my favorite vlogger. You are down to earth and very genuine. Keep up the fantastic videos. Be safe too with this crazy Covid-19 pandemic. May God bless you and your family.
Great video for someone who is letting her hair grow from short to long. I was doing a few of your secret tips, but now I can do a better job. Thank you!
I regret that there are those who are hell bent on making rather nasty comments about the video makers themselves--none of it helpful at best; hurtful and distasteful at worst. I've never understood why under cover of anonymity some people think it's acceptable to make rude comments such that they would never say to a person's face. Fortunately, there are others who express what a presenter might possibly add that would make their video(s) even more useful, but the commenter does it tactfully and stays away from making it personal. There are others who will compliment the presenter to counterbalance the negativity of others and sometimes cuz they just love to find something they can praise the presenter for, In these three cases, I for one applaud their determination to keep the dialogue positive.
Ann Wright I agree with you 100%. I remember when YT was such a positive place to be and viewers were thrilled to have content. Now the negative seems to outweigh the positive. People seem to forget that if a tutorial doesn't apply to you, skip it and move to the next. No one is making anyone suffer through a tutorial so there is no need for any negativity. Keyboard Warriors...move along. If you don't have anything nice to say......
It is the same reason why mild-mannered passive people end up displaying road rage when in a vehicle. The massive motor under the hood and the cover of the vehicle makes them think it is okay to be aggressive.
I completely disagree with Ann Wright! Everyone sees these 'mistakes' and often want to help but people are so offensive these days. She didn't say anyone's names just the 'mistakes' she sees. I don't feel that she is being nasty in any way shape or form. The heat setting is a big thing, and a lot of people assume the hotter the better. I am a daughter of a hair stylist and I see a lot of mistakes as well. I have often tried to help people and they get offended. I feel you tube is a great place to find information and I also find her video quite helpful. I think it's unfortunate you are putting negativity into a quite helpful video. I wish you a great day none the less!
@ Tami Rose: Ann Wright is defending the maker of this video. What she is addressing in her post is the ugly remarks made here in the comments section about the presenter of this video.
This may be one of my favorite channels... I just found you and I have binged watched most of your videos in one night. So funny, so pretty and I am loving all the tips. Thanks for sharing!
I also use a cool shot to set my hair with my dryer-that way even if I’m quickly doing my hair it cools and sets into place with zero frizz. The other thing I will do if I want some curl is I will twist my hair into a bun with a jaw clip while it’s still warm from the dryer and do my makeup or whatever and then take it down before i leave the house. Not only does it add volume and life, jaw clips don’t leave bumps in my hair❤️
Amber F I use the cool shot also. And, it really helps cool me off on hot summer days . Thanks for the tip about putting your hair up in a clip for a while! I'm definitely going to try that tomorrow morning! 😀
I went to cosmetology school, and we learned to set the hair, was to add some flexible hair spray, comb through and immediately put the cool shot on it! ... same with flat iron (If no curls)
I looove that trick with the clipped up bun while my hair is still warm!! It gives me perfect waves. My hair is already wavy and takes to curl easily though, maybe wouldn't work as well with straight hair.
Amber F I do this as well. At night when I do to bed I just pull my hair up as I would as if I were going to put it in a high pony then I twist it then I start at the bottom of this hair that I’ve twisted and make it into a bun on the top of my head and like a cinnamon bun would look then just tuck your ends in anywhere under your bun and just spray a little hair spray if you want. In the morning after brushing your teeth, makeup breakfast all that and take out and walla beautiful waves and they will all go in the direction you twisted it in the night before. Both directions looked great and this way your not drying your hair out and you can get away without washing it everyday! Try it it really works well with my very fine straight hair but a friend of mine who has black very frizzy dry type hair and she does this trick too, only puts product in her hair first like a smoothener like I would use a volumizer throughout ALL THE HAIR before brushing or just pulling it up before twisting into a bun at the top of your head. Good luck I hope you like this!
BeckyBirder YES!! This!! I was just coming to say this! Never use the dryer without your nozzle! That is the golden rule to a perfect blow dry and healthy hair!
BeckyBirder yeah that’s so true, my blow dryer came with two attachments and I thought they were just complete shit LOL at first I was like what am I gonna do with the stupid things, and then I decided to actually try using them and I was astonished at how much of a difference it made
Lynn Shore I’m astounded! I usually toss the nozzle aside and put it back in the box. I manage my hair reasonably well and I do use a cool blast but now I’m going to try the nozzle. Hope I can find it! Thanks for this tip, Lynn.
@Lynn Shore I agree and I always use a nozzle. It directs the air flow better than without one and it protects the hair from the hot grills at the end of a blow dryer.
Thank you so much ! You have inspired me to take better care of my hair. I would just jump out of the shower, comb it, and air dry it. I just did not take must interest in doing my hair and would hoard my hair styling stuff like a squirrel and rarely use it. Now I have been using product (more than ever before and it made a BIG difference in volume) and blow drying using your tips. Also bought the Amika undone texture spray! WOWIE WOW WOW that stuff is amazing! So much volume and texture! Thank you you are an amazing teacher and I will continue to watch your videos and share them with others!
I love that you try to teach us the quickest and easiest way to style hair! During this long quarantine in 2020, I really learned a lot from your tutorials, and you have such beautiful, healthy looking hair! Are you currently making more videos?
after watching your video, I realize I do most of those things correctly. Except I do use the high heat. I have extremely thick hair. If I used medium, I would be there all day!
Hi Kate, thank you for this video (very helpful). I need help with the "finishing touches". I have watched the last part over and over that was sped up. Maybe you could do a video on the last few minutes. Thank you so much!!!
Best tip I've found from u my sweet,my hair underneath the back always gets full of knots.When I'm trying to get the brush through it bfor a shower it sometimes snaps off.so now I spray conditioner,serum or hair shine underneath,and now it brushes through easily and prevents futher brackage.Brilliant 😘😘😘.thank u.
Made me realize I've been fortunate to have known most of the things you listed but either way it was absolutely helpful to go through them again, thanks! :)
Same here.. My hubby is going to do mine in the morning. We'll let you know x He does my hair as I am paralysed from the neck... What a gem.. Subscribed to would appreciate any followers too...
Lindsay Millward I have naturally wavy hair, but very frizzy. I’ve found that the more I touch and brush the more frizz. I let my hair air dry my hair with an anti frizz serum and leave in conditioner spray. Also when towel drying I twist and throw up. If you must use a towel blot don’t rub. But the more you touch the more frizz.
I had really back luck with diffusers but finally ponied up for an Elchim blowdryer. Their cocoon diffuser is amazing - my hair isn't dried out or frizzy. Nice curls in a pretty short amount of time.
Lindsay Millward I have very natural curly hair and for no frizz.. Well after I wash my hair I blot it with a T shirt and then wrap my hair up in the shirt for a few minutes then I put my hair serum/elixir in it and let it air dry and zero frizz !!! My hair is never frizzy by doing it this way! Hope this helps!
I love your humor! 💖 thanks for the tips! I am one of the women who have never harnessed the skill of doing ones hair and doesn’t help I work in a professional field. So thanks for this!!!
Ok, so I do my hair (with heat) once a week when my husband & I head to town for date night. Most days it's in a pony tail, or braid. We have livestock & I swear it's a good day if I don't have manure from scooping pens or a dairy goat chewing on it. I've never been a girly girl, but I'd like to start setting a smidge more time aside for myself. 😊 thanks for the video.
I flip my hair over (bend my head over) and it does work to help dry and volume for the back of the hair. Your video is one of the best I've seen! Thank you and your wit cracks me up! Also you're a very pretty girl! Humor adds beauty to a person! Thanks again!!
This saved me from cutting my hair very short! I thought the amount of mousse would cause me to jump back in the shower and rewash my hair. What I discovered was beautiful volume for my fine long hair that has only one long layer. My husband was also wowed!
I watched this thinking "oh this is just how I blow dry my hair!" Cut to today when I am blow drying my hair and OMG what a difference! I was constantly going against the direction of my hair (especially on one side and always wondered why it was so much smoother on the other side when I was done) and I never waited until it was damp & not dripping wet. Thank you for posting this- you helped me so much!
Your sarcasm cracks me up! 😂 I’m a licensed stylist and it always makes me cringe when I see how some of my clients have taught themselves to style their hair. It gives me so much satisfaction to teach them correct techniques. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I love how you weren’t obnoxious in this video like some people are, and it had subtle humor in it. Super helpful btw. Thank you.

I'm 55 years old and have blow dried my hair almost every morning for 40+ years and learned 5 new ways to handle my hair from this video. Thank you!
So do I, all my life blow dried my hair, and after this video, learned a good, easy and more healthy way to do it
Thank you so much for this video!

Omg girl thank you so much for this video. Simple, straight forward, and easy. Ain't nobody got time for a full salon blowout all the time!
Kate, I found you last summer after I had surgery and was recuperating ( nothing major). This type of video is why I decided to follow you!! You have such a wonderful personality and are a fantastic teacher (my occupation). I am over 60 and never knew how to do things with my hair until I started following you. Thank you so very much. 💐

Buy a dryer at a professional outlet.
Get a T3 blower. They have the 3 flavors. Sometimes Marshalls and TJ have them at a great price.
J 2004 BWAAAAHAHAHA!!! Need all the flavors!!
"just put it on medium, see where life takes you" is my new mantra! seriously though great video.

It really IS amazing. I love it so much I want to tell the world! LOL! Thank you for asking me. I hope you love Wen as much as I do.
WEN is a he not a her hahaha
You're so genuinely cute 😅 and your tips and tricks are so helpful! Thank you.
Man, I miss your hair videos. You have a gift for explaining styling techniques. (Plus you crack me up.) Thanks for this!
you're the first person to get it in my thick skull that i need to get my hair 80% dry before I style it. thank you for that. :)
Her: shows us all the bad ways I can blow dry my hair.
Me: HA I do thaaat.
found this an amazing help. Never blow dried my hair because never knew how. Will from time to time now I know how to do it properly. Think this lesson should be given in schools, along with other simple life lessons
Thanks! I don't use much product (might now that I heard about your "lift" products), it was nice to see how to apply them correctly. I do pretty much everything right but I did get some valuable tips to try.
Your video is a revelation to me, especially as far as the front is concerned. A voluminous hair dryer hairstyle without a round brush, that borders on magic! Thank you, I love it! (y)
"Just see where life takes you on that medium heat setting." 😂 I love it!
You are so cute! You always make me smile or laugh.
I’ve been following you since 2014 and by far you are my favorite vlogger. You are down to earth and very genuine. Keep up the fantastic videos. Be safe too with this crazy Covid-19 pandemic. May God bless you and your family.
Oh my god....I'm 48 yrs old and just learned how to blow dry my hair! 😂
That’s okay, I’m 38 and just figured it out lol. But I can’t use that many products. Holy moly.
I love how this video is so educating and somehow very sarcastic
I'm a guy with long hair. I just bought a hair dryer and this helped me thank you
GIRLFRANNN. Hands down, best tutorial ever. Love how you just tell it like it is, and srsly, sis, Your personality is EVERYTHING 🙌🏼💖💫
Dry bangs first if your hair is wavy! :)
SixHeart Home I did not know that! Thank you for the tip!
Absolutely. This way it can't dry and be all a mess if you tackle bangs first!
I have to do that too.
Great video for someone who is letting her hair grow from short to long. I was doing a few of your secret tips, but now I can do a better job. Thank you!
I regret that there are those who are hell bent on making rather nasty comments about the video makers themselves--none of it helpful at best; hurtful and distasteful at worst.
I've never understood why under cover of anonymity some people think it's acceptable to make rude comments such that they would never say to a person's face.
Fortunately, there are others who express what a presenter might possibly add that would make their video(s) even more useful, but the commenter does it tactfully and stays away from making it personal. There are others who will compliment the presenter to counterbalance the negativity of others and sometimes cuz they just love to find something they can praise the presenter for, In these three cases, I for one applaud their determination to keep the dialogue positive.
Ann Wright I agree with you 100%. I remember when YT was such a positive place to be and viewers were thrilled to have content. Now the negative seems to outweigh the positive. People seem to forget that if a tutorial doesn't apply to you, skip it and move to the next. No one is making anyone suffer through a tutorial so there is no need for any negativity. Keyboard Warriors...move along. If you don't have anything nice to say......
Ann Wright zYour news and I find me the news
It is the same reason why mild-mannered passive people end up displaying road rage when in a vehicle. The massive motor under the hood and the cover of the vehicle makes them think it is okay to be aggressive.
I completely disagree with Ann Wright! Everyone sees these 'mistakes' and often want to help but people are so offensive these days. She didn't say anyone's names just the 'mistakes' she sees. I don't feel that she is being nasty in any way shape or form. The heat setting is a big thing, and a lot of people assume the hotter the better. I am a daughter of a hair stylist and I see a lot of mistakes as well. I have often tried to help people and they get offended. I feel you tube is a great place to find information and I also find her video quite helpful. I think it's unfortunate you are putting negativity into a quite helpful video. I wish you a great day none the less!
@ Tami Rose: Ann Wright is defending the maker of this video. What she is addressing in her post is the ugly remarks made here in the comments section about the presenter of this video.
You’re making me laugh at the things you see people do lol. Love your humour😂. Great tutorial🇦🇺🩵
I loved this video!! Great reminders with the humor added was fabulous :))
Yeah, what's up with these viper chicks? She's just trying to be helpful. Which hateful remarks are not. Get a life, bi$%tc*es! Not you, Kim. :)
This may be one of my favorite channels... I just found you and I have binged watched most of your videos in one night. So funny, so pretty and I am loving all the tips. Thanks for sharing!
can you please film a video on how to blow dry your hair with a round brush ??
I would like to see the blow dry done right. With a round brush.
Susan Fontana Yeager was my
Married married name.
I have been drying my hair wrong for over 41 years, since I was 15. Love your video!
I also use a cool shot to set my hair with my dryer-that way even if I’m quickly doing my hair it cools and sets into place with zero frizz. The other thing I will do if I want some curl is I will twist my hair into a bun with a jaw clip while it’s still warm from the dryer and do my makeup or whatever and then take it down before i leave the house. Not only does it add volume and life, jaw clips don’t leave bumps in my hair❤️
Amber F I use the cool shot also. And, it really helps cool me off on hot summer days .
Thanks for the tip about putting your hair up in a clip for a while! I'm definitely going to try that tomorrow morning! 😀
I went to cosmetology school, and we learned to set the hair, was to add some flexible hair spray, comb through and immediately put the cool shot on it! ... same with flat iron (If no curls)
Would love to see a tutorial on your methods!!
I looove that trick with the clipped up bun while my hair is still warm!! It gives me perfect waves. My hair is already wavy and takes to curl easily though, maybe wouldn't work as well with straight hair.
Amber F I do this as well. At night when I do to bed I just pull my hair up as I would as if I were going to put it in a high pony then I twist it then I start at the bottom of this hair that I’ve twisted and make it into a bun on the top of my head and like a cinnamon bun would look then just tuck your ends in anywhere under your bun and just spray a little hair spray if you want. In the morning after brushing your teeth, makeup breakfast all that and take out and walla beautiful waves and they will all go in the direction you twisted it in the night before. Both directions looked great and this way your not drying your hair out and you can get away without washing it everyday! Try it it really works well with my very fine straight hair but a friend of mine who has black very frizzy dry type hair and she does this trick too, only puts product in her hair first like a smoothener like I would use a volumizer throughout ALL THE HAIR before brushing or just pulling it up before twisting into a bun at the top of your head. Good luck I hope you like this!
I recently found your channel. Just wants to let you know that I’m enjoying your videos! Your voice is very peaceful. Have a blessed day!
Good tips, but I think using a nozzle on the blow dryer is another very good tip
BeckyBirder YES!! This!! I was just coming to say this! Never use the dryer without your nozzle! That is the golden rule to a perfect blow dry and healthy hair!
Jo
BeckyBirder yeah that’s so true, my blow dryer came with two attachments and I thought they were just complete shit LOL at first I was like what am I gonna do with the stupid things, and then I decided to actually try using them and I was astonished at how much of a difference it made
Lynn Shore I’m astounded! I usually toss the nozzle aside and put it back in the box. I manage my hair reasonably well and I do use a cool blast but now I’m going to try the nozzle. Hope I can find it! Thanks for this tip, Lynn.
@Lynn Shore I agree and I always use a nozzle. It directs the air flow better than without one and it protects the hair from the hot grills at the end of a blow dryer.
Thank you so much ! You have inspired me to take better care of my hair. I would just jump out of the shower, comb it, and air dry it. I just did not take must interest in doing my hair and would hoard my hair styling stuff like a squirrel and rarely use it. Now I have been using product (more than ever before and it made a BIG difference in volume) and blow drying using your tips. Also bought the Amika undone texture spray! WOWIE WOW WOW that stuff is amazing! So much volume and texture! Thank you you are an amazing teacher and I will continue to watch your videos and share them with others!
This was THE most helpful-thank you!!
Thank you, I thought all was lost and you saved me on my first attempt to get salon looking hair. ❤️👌
Great tips!!
I love that you try to teach us the quickest and easiest way to style hair! During this long quarantine in 2020, I really learned a lot from your tutorials, and you have such beautiful, healthy looking hair! Are you currently making more videos?
Ps. Instead of a hair dryer I use large Velcro rollers. Lifts and straigtens the hair with no heat. Less damage.❤
Made all the mistakes you mentioned - followed your advice and what a difference - no more full blast hair drying - thank you
after watching your video, I realize I do most of those things correctly. Except I do use the high heat. I have extremely thick hair. If I used medium, I would be there all day!
SAME HERE!
This worked really good! My little hairs isn’t sticking up anymore! My hair is not damaged! Ty!
Hi Kate, thank you for this video (very helpful). I need help with the "finishing touches". I have watched the last part over and over that was sped up. Maybe you could do a video on the last few minutes. Thank you so much!!!
Amanda yes please it was too fast
Best tip I've found from u my sweet,my hair underneath the back always gets full of knots.When I'm trying to get the brush through it bfor a shower it sometimes snaps off.so now I spray conditioner,serum or hair shine underneath,and now it brushes through easily and prevents futher brackage.Brilliant 😘😘😘.thank u.
This has been so reassuring for me but also taught me new things. Such a great video
Thank you so much! I felt like I was the only one who didn’t know how to apply products & dry my hair smooth. This is sooo helpful!
You cracked me up in this video 😂 this might be one of my favorites ever! Also, good tips...but you def made me laugh today
Rachel Hoffman put it on medium see where life takes you 😂😂

Made me realize I've been fortunate to have known most of the things you listed but either way it was absolutely helpful to go through them again, thanks! :)
I love how she sprays on the top of her hair and says, "I am ready". 😂
Soothing voice, helpful tips, excellent explanation and demonstrations! Subscribed.
Same here.. My hubby is going to do mine in the morning. We'll let you know x
He does my hair as I am paralysed from the neck... What a gem.. Subscribed to would appreciate any followers too...
I have naturally curly hair, could you give some advice on how to use a diffuser and the best way to dry curls and help avoid frizz!!!!
Lindsay Millward I have naturally wavy hair, but very frizzy. I’ve found that the more I touch and brush the more frizz. I let my hair air dry my hair with an anti frizz serum and leave in conditioner spray. Also when towel drying I twist and throw up. If you must use a towel blot don’t rub. But the more you touch the more frizz.
I had really back luck with diffusers but finally ponied up for an Elchim blowdryer. Their cocoon diffuser is amazing - my hair isn't dried out or frizzy. Nice curls in a pretty short amount of time.
Lindsay Millward
I have very natural curly hair and for no frizz.. Well after I wash my hair I blot it with a T shirt and then wrap my hair up in the shirt for a few minutes then I put my hair serum/elixir in it and let it air dry and zero frizz !!! My hair is never frizzy by doing it this way! Hope this helps!
David Pumpkins is that type of blow-dryer you mentioned expensive?
Unfortunately yes.
I love your humor! 💖 thanks for the tips! I am one of the women who have never harnessed the skill of doing ones hair and doesn’t help I work in a professional field. So thanks for this!!!
Ok, so I do my hair (with heat) once a week when my husband & I head to town for date night. Most days it's in a pony tail, or braid. We have livestock & I swear it's a good day if I don't have manure from scooping pens or a dairy goat chewing on it. I've never been a girly girl, but I'd like to start setting a smidge more time aside for myself. 😊 thanks for the video.
I flip my hair over (bend my head over) and it does work to help dry and volume for the back of the hair. Your video is one of the best I've seen! Thank you and your wit cracks me up! Also you're a very pretty girl! Humor adds beauty to a person! Thanks again!!
"just see where life takes you on medium heat." 😂😂😂 UA-cam gold
This saved me from cutting my hair very short! I thought the amount of mousse would cause me to jump back in the shower and rewash my hair. What I discovered was beautiful volume for my fine long hair that has only one long layer. My husband was also wowed!
That stab+cough made me literally LOL! :D
Dum
🥔🥔😊💨
I watched this thinking "oh this is just how I blow dry my hair!" Cut to today when I am blow drying my hair and OMG what a difference! I was constantly going against the direction of my hair (especially on one side and always wondered why it was so much smoother on the other side when I was done) and I never waited until it was damp & not dripping wet. Thank you for posting this- you helped me so much!
Kate, I have been doing it wrong for DECADES. Thanks! Also, what color is the nude lipstick you’re wearing?
Teresa Wise I’ve been doing it wrong for HALF A CENTURY!!!! SERIOUSLY!!!!! I’m 72!!! Lol
LOL!
Yaaaassss! The lipstick is all I want to know about. Nice color💋
Thanks for the great blow dry tips! All of these yrs and I never thought to ever try to blow dy my hair while its dry for a quick freshen up!! ❤
Your lucky because you’re hair is natural very soft and amazing I have to get a very high heat to my hair to look like this
Your sarcasm cracks me up! 😂 I’m a licensed stylist and it always makes me cringe when I see how some of my clients have taught themselves to style their hair. It gives me so much satisfaction to teach them correct techniques. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Wow I just want to take a shower just to apply these tips! Thanks a bunch! I am guilty of drying too hot and too wet!
I'm positive I've showed my hair stylist pics of your hair from pinterest a million times!
Is the order that you applied the products the correct order: heat protectant, serum, then mouse? 🤷🏼♀️
Holy cow. I have now watched 3/4 of this video and I got more of a sense of how much she loves herself than anything to do with blowing hair dry.
Thanks! I have been blow drying in the wrong direction. No wonder my brush would get tangled while drying!
You have a great sense of humor! I was laughing a few times 😊 Thanks so much that was so helpful and you gave me some awesome tips I will use!!
Well arent you just the cutest thing! Good job ! Tfs!
Why has it taken me so long to find you?!! THANK YOU!!!
Why is it I do exactly what my hairstylist does, use the same products, same amount of heat....and it doesn't come out the same???😭
I love your common sense 😂. So many people lack that but I love it and I appreciate it. Thank you.
