Using a combination of low heat followed by a cool shot when styling your hair is generally more effective. Here’s why:
-
Low Heat: Using low heat helps to gently dry and style your hair without causing excessive damage. It also allows the hair to be more pliable, making it easier to shape and manipulate.
-
Cool Shot: The cool shot feature on a blow dryer helps to set the style in place. Cooling the hair after styling can help to lock in the shape and add shine, as it closes the hair cuticles.
Recommended Steps:
- Start with low heat to dry and shape your hair.
- Once you achieve your desired style, use the cool shot setting for a few seconds to set the style.
This method can help maintain your hair's health while giving you better, longer-lasting results.
