Before your boudoir shoot, a blowout is an invaluable way to boost your confidence and optimize your look! You’re always gorgeous, but if you want to have that extra bounce in your step & your hair on the day of your photoshoot, a blowout is a simple trick.  Before coming in for your boudoir session, I recommend getting a professional blowout done the morning of or day before and here is why…

1. Blowouts are agood chance to soak up some justified self-care it's a fun way to sneak in some salon-quality conditioning treatments that you wouldn’t normally do at home. They can breathe life back into your hair between cuts and are especially helpful when you need to look polished on short notice. The client we’ve posted images of in this blog came in and I could sense the pep in her step. She had come in with a fresh blow out and also used the living proof full volume blast giving her hair some extra volume at the roots without weighing the hair.

2. Getting a blowout gives you clean roots that are easy to work with.

3. Besides the fact that getting a blowout means you get to have at least three days of look-at-me perfect hair, getting it done the day before or the morning of your boudoir shoot will leave you with super clean roots that can handle a sexy flip with natural volume and bounce.

When you come in the day before or the day of your shoot, we’ll style your hair with glammed up curls and make sure that your hair looks as smooth and healthy as possible on camera. When you get a blowout ahead of time, your curls and other products have better staying power so that your hair stays put during your boudoir shoot (and you’ll be checking yourself out in the mirror all day long!).

4. Blowouts make your hair look shiny and healthy in photos

Even if you’re diligent about using sulfate- and paraben-free hair products (sulfates and parabens can strip and dull your hair) and think you know how to create a blowout that rivals a professional service, you should still consider a salon blowout before your shoot.

The camera makes dull hair more noticeable than it appears in person, and shiny hair that moves naturally and feels fresh is going to boost your confidence on the day of your boudoir shoot.
