A blowout hair treatment is the process of washing, conditioning, and then blow-drying hair to achieve a smooth, shiny, voluminous style without using curling or flat irons. It is a professional styling technique that enhances the natural texture of your hair, creating a polished look that can be straight, wavy, or subtly curled depending on the method used during drying and styling. The goal is to make hair look soft, manageable, and full of body, often lasting 3 to 5 days depending on hair type and care

. The process typically involves:

• Washing and conditioning the hair
• Towel drying to remove excess moisture
• Applying styling products to condition and detangle
• Sectioning the hair for easier styling
• Using a blow dryer with a round or paddle brush to smooth and add volume
• Finishing with a cool shot to set the style and sometimes additional styling tools for curls or extra smoothness

Blowouts differ from simple blow drying in that they focus on styling and volume, not just drying hair. They do not usually involve heat tools like flat irons or curling irons unless specified as an additional service

. There are variations such as Brazilian blowouts (a keratin treatment for frizz control and shine), curly blowouts (enhancing natural curls), bouncy blowouts, and wavy blowouts, each tailored to different hair textures and desired looks

. In summary, a blowout is a salon or at-home styling method that transforms freshly washed hair into a sleek, voluminous, and polished hairstyle primarily using a blow dryer and brush, without heavy use of other heat styling tools
