Tip #1: Prep With More Than A Heat Protectant 

To keep hair protected from heat AND create a smooth finish, BTC Team Member Donovan Mills (@donovanmillshair) preps his clients with the new No. 7 Bonding Oil from Olaplex. Not only is the No. 7 a heat protectant, it strengthens bonds, adds shine and softens strands. Check out Donovan using No. 7 below!

Tip #2: When It Comes To Creating Volume, It’s All About The Angles 

For added volume and lift, Jen Maxcy aka @hairandbeautybyjen on Insta, brings a round brush up from underneath each section and works it into the base before hitting it with heat. Then, keep the tip of the blowdryer close to the brush at an angle while turning the blowdryer through the section. See how she does it below!
