The secret? A little technique, the right styling tools and some seriously good hair products. Enter evo haircare, your new blow-dry bestie. With the help of evo Day of Grace Pre-Style Primer and a few styling essentials, you can say goodbye to frizz, flat roots and blow-dry struggles. 

Ready to take your at-home blowout game to the next level? Follow our six-step guide to achieving smooth, shiny and bouncy hair that's worthy of a salon selfie. 

Step 1: Start with a Fresh Foundation 

Every great blowout starts in the shower. After all, your blow-dry is only as good as the hair you're working with! 

Begin by cleansing and conditioning with a shampoo and conditioner suited to your hair type. For dry or dehydrated strands, reach for evo The Therapist Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner to help nourish, soften and improve manageability. 

If you're chasing extra volume, opt for evo's Gluttony Volume range to give fine or flat hair a little more body. 

Once you've rinsed, gently squeeze out excess water and wrap your hair in a microfibre towel. Avoid aggressively rubbing your strands, as this can encourage frizz and tangles. 

Blowout tip: A clean, lightweight foundation helps your blowout feel fresh and full of movement rather than weighed down. 

Step 2: Prep, Prime and Protect with evo Day of Grace 

Meet the product your blowout routine has been missing: evo Day of Grace Pre-Style Primer. 

Think of it as the ultimate prep step before the main event. This lightweight leave-in primer is designed to prepare your hair for styling while helping to detangle, soften and improve manageability. 

Even better? It helps protect your strands against heat and UV damage while reducing frizz and adding shine. Basically, it's a multitasking must-have for your hair styling routine. 

Suitable for all hair types, especially fine hair, evo Day of Grace is the perfect first step towards a smoother, more polished blowout. 

Simply shake well and spray evenly throughout damp hair before styling. 

Why we love it: Less tangling, more shine and a smoother styling experience? Consider us obsessed.

Step 3: Rough Dry Before You Style 

Before reaching for your round brush, it's time to get your hair partially dry. 

Using your hairdryer on a moderate heat setting, gently rough dry your hair until it's approximately 70–80% dry. Use your fingers to lift the roots and direct airflow down the hair shaft to encourage a smoother finish. 

Why is this step important? Trying to style soaking-wet hair with a round brush can make your blowout take longer than necessary. 

For a little extra styling support, try evo Mister Fantastic Blowout Spray, which helps build body, improve style control and speed up blow-drying time. 

Blowout tip: Keep your hairdryer moving and avoid concentrating heat on one section for too long. 

Step 4: Bring on the Bounce with a Round Brush 

Now for the fun part! It's time to transform your strands into the bouncy blowout of your dreams. 

Divide your hair into manageable sections, starting at the bottom and working your way up. 

Using an evo Hank Ceramic Radial Brush, position your brush underneath a section of hair, creating gentle tension as you direct your hairdryer downwards. 

For maximum volume, lift sections upwards at the roots before rolling the brush through the mid-lengths and ends. 

Want that signature '90s blowout look? Roll the ends inwards or away from your face to create soft, bouncy movement. 

The secret to a long-lasting blowout is allowing each section to cool before releasing it. Finish with your hairdryer's cool-shot setting to help set the shape. 

Blowout tip: Larger round brushes create softer, voluminous movement, while smaller brushes help achieve more defined bends and curls. 

Step 5: Turn Up the Volume 

What's a perfect blowout without a little extra oomph? 

Once your hair is completely dry, it's time to give those roots some love. 

For instant lift and texture, reach for evo Haze Styling Powder. Apply a small amount at the roots and gently work it through with your fingertips to create volume and separation. 

If you're after a more effortless, lived-in finish, gently loosen your blowout with your fingers rather than brushing everything out. 

Want even more bounce? Try setting your freshly blow-dried sections in large rollers while they cool. 

Blowout tip: Focus your volumising products around the crown to keep your ends soft, smooth and full of movement. 

Step 6: Finish with Shine and Hold 

You've done the hard work, and now it's time for the finishing touches! 

For that glossy, salon-fresh finish, apply a small amount of Love Touch Shine Spray 

 through your mid-lengths and ends to add shine and polish. 

Remember, a little goes a long way, especially if you have fine hair. 

To help your blowout stay in place without sacrificing its beautiful bounce, finish with a light mist of evo Miss Malleable Flexible Hairspray. 

The result? Soft, shiny, voluminous hair that's ready for its close-up. 

Blowout tip: Avoid overloading your roots with finishing products to keep your blowout looking fresh and full of life. 

How to Make Your Blowout Last Longer 

Want to keep your salon-worthy blowout looking fabulous beyond wash day? We've got you. 

Sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase to help minimise friction overnight, loosely secure your hair to preserve volume and avoid touching your roots too often. 

When your hair needs a refresh, reach for evo Water Killer Dry Shampoo to absorb excess oil and bring some life back to your roots. 

A quick refresh with your round brush can also help revive those face-framing layers.
