Best Blow Dries near me in Strip District, Pittsburgh

A blow dry can refer to any professional drying of the hair after washing, while a blowout is a more intentional styling service with a specific finish in mind, smooth and polished, or voluminous and bouncy: using professional tools and products.

Many salons offer event blowouts, perfect for weddings, parties, or dates. Browse and book the best event blowout providers near you on Fresha.

A professional blowout typically lasts 3–5 days with proper care. Avoiding humidity, using dry shampoo, and sleeping on a silk pillowcase can extend the life of your blowout.

Wait until your hair is at least 80% dry before you start blow drying it, and prep it first with a heat protectant. Use a volumising heat protectant if your hair is fine, a smoothing one if your hair’s prone to frizzing, and a leave-in conditioner if your hair is curly. You should also untangle any knots and section off your hair with clips before you begin your blow dry.

We wouldn’t recommend it. Heat is damaging to hair, so daily use of a heated styling tool like a hair dryer is likely to strip your hair’s natural oils, dry the cuticle and cause frizz and breakage.

Yes, many hair salons offering blowouts are open on Sundays. Browse Fresha to find providers near you with Sunday availability.

The time it takes to blow dry hair depends on its length, type, texture and the style you want to achieve. If you have short hair, it can be blow-dried in about 5-10 minutes; longer hair takes around 15-30 minutes.
