Okay, I have an idea, but I need opinions
Here it is: You know when you go to the salon and your hairdresser blows out your hair and it LOOKS JUST AWESOME!
Maybe I am challenged or something, but I can never do as well. I would love to go to a place or to my stylist and be taught and guided how to do it myself. I would pay for lessons.
I was thinking of emailing the salon I go to with my idea, maybe add this as a service? What do you think? Is it is stupid idea?

Re: Okay, I have an idea, but I need opinions
Are you really close with your hair dresser/stylist? I have my colorist's home phone number...
Just ask her to show you next time you go there.

Totally true! But her hair looks great and she seems to do it on her own.
I am just trying to figure out the techniques. Know what I mean?

I am not that close with her.
Maybe next time, I'll ask her to watch me blow out my own hair and she can advise me. I bought the same brush she uses.

Re: Okay, I have an idea, but I need opinions
I just got a (much needed) cut last night and I said the same thing. I loved it but was pizzed that I could never get it to look that good 
I don't have the patience to dry my head in such small sections.

Re: Okay, I have an idea, but I need opinions
I would pay to learn how to make my hair look the way my stylist does----it is so frustrating when they do it and then you know you will never be able to make it look that good again!!!!!!

I would do this and ask her for tips and such -- I am sure that once you learn the right technique, it's just a matter of practice

I feel like you just can't work as well on yourself though....The arms can't work the angles as well or something.

Re: Okay, I have an idea, but I need opinions
My hairdresser has tried to teach me MANY times. I can never truly replicate it, but I have found that using salon products makes a BIG difference

Re: Okay, I have an idea, but I need opinions
I think practice really makes a difference. I think also if you dry your hair in small sections, it's better.
You can always ask them for tips and I'm sure they will tell you a few.
Best thing might be for you to go to one of those beauty schools. Maybe they can let you observe.

I think part of my problem is I don't have the patience to talk as much time as the stylist does blowing it out...

Re: Okay, I have an idea, but I need opinions
I think I am hair impaired, and I have just come to accept it. I actually have pretty great hair (if I do say so myself  ) but I don't ever seem to have the time or patience to get it as good as the stylist does.
I think it is a good idea to ask her specifically how she is doing it. I did do that once and it helped. The stylist I have now asks me how much time I want to spend on it before she cuts it and then we discuss a style that will not take me a long time.

Re: Okay, I have an idea, but I need opinions
I have really curly hair so I have the opposite problem. Whenever I go to a salon, they keep saying, wow you have really curly hair and it ends up being pouffy. I usually go home and redry it.
I've mastered the skill of blowdrying my hair. My long hair takes me about 45 minutes. If I go to a salon for a blow out, I go to a domincan salon. Wash and blow dry$10.00
ETA. forgot to say. It is an excellent idea though. If I couldn't blow dry my hair, I'd so pay to learn!!!
