There’s nothing quite like the feeling of a fresh blowout. If you’re anything like us, you’ll do just about anything to extend that feeling as long as possible. When cold, dry weather comes into play, that task gets a bit trickier—but fear not. We’ve been perfecting the art of the blowout for years, and we’ve gathered our best tips to help you extend the life of your style beyond day two.

Dial Down the Heat

When the weather cools down, it may take longer to dry your hair. But to keep your blowout looking and feeling fresh, you’ve got to resist the urge to turn up the heat on your blow dryer. Using a temperature setting that’s too high for your hair can deplete hair’s natural moisture, leading to dryness and frizz. Especially in dry, wintery air, it’s essential to preserve hair’s hydration. If you find yourself unsure of what heat setting’s best for you, there’s hope. The Featherweight StyleMax hair dryer auto-adjusts heat and airflow to your hair texture and styling goals, so you’ll never have to guess.

Don’t Sleep on Smoothing Serums

In cooler weather, especially if it’s rainy or damp outside, moisture in the air can cause frizz and quickly disrupt that sleek, smooth finish you worked so hard for. On days like these, we reach for a smoothing serum or leave-in product with hydrators that keep hair from absorbing the moisture in the air. Look for products with lightweight hydration, like the RŌZ Milk Hair Serum (one of our favorites) and apply pre-blowout to lock in moisture and keep frizz at bay.

Use the Cool Shot (Always)

To some, the cool shot might feel like a bonus feature. But we’re here to tell you it’s a necessary step in any blowout routine. Hot air works to dry and shape strands, but cool air is what sets them in place. This is especially true if you’re rocking volume or blowout curls. Fortunately, our all-time favorite air styler—the Aire 360—features a built-in cool shot to make it easy. After styling each section, hold the tool in place and hit the cool shot to lock in your look for a blowout that stays put—even on damp or cool days.

Hit Refresh

If you’re only using your hair dryer or air styler on wash days, you’re missing out one of our favorite blowout tips. It’s oh-so easy to touch up your blowout with nothing but air (and a little dry shampoo, if you’re so inclined) to stretch it another day or two. Dial down the heat and speed settings for gentle styling and more control, then tackle problem areas the same way you would if your hair was damp. If you’re focusing on frizz reduction, use your air styler’s oval brush attachment or a blow dryer and round brush to restyle your ends. And if you’re looking to boost volume and keep oil at bay, use the same tools to refresh your roots.
