HAND – HELD DRYER is the most important piece of equipment you need.
The dryer should have adjustable speeds and temperatures and period of durability.
It needs to be light and easy to hold and to have controls positioned for easy reach.

HAND DRYER ATTACHMENTS such as nozzles and diffusers are available. Using the dryer without a
nozzle or diffuser allows for a wider directed air flow.
COMBS should be professional and heat resistant. The comb you will use should have both widely spaced
and narrowly spaced teeth.
BRUSHES are probably the most important items after blow dryers. A firm, stiff, bristle or plastic brush is
required. This will help you to grip, direct and control the hair.
DIFFUSER fits over the end of the hair dryer and distributes an even flow of warm air. It reduces a strong
air to flow and is used for finishing styles. It is ideal for producing soft, casual, ruffled natural curl looks.
It can be used on various hair lengths.
NOZZLE is intended to concentrate the hot air flow on to a specific area. It is ideal for blow-waving as it
allows the hair to be directed at the troughs and crests of the wave shapes.
STYLING IRONS OR TONGS are often used to finalize a dried hair style. This is an electrically heated
unit. The hair is rolled and held in place long enough for the heat to soften the hair. The irons are then
slid out to leave a smooth rolled shape, similar to that produced by the rollers.
HOT BRUSHES AND HEATED ROLLERS are available in several sizes. They are applied to dried hair in
similar manner for styling tongs.
STYLING AIDS / PRODUCTS USED IN BLOWDRYING

Blow – styling, setting, styling and dressing can be usefully aided by using some of a large variety
of products. Most hair cosmetic manufacturers feature them. Some are physically designed to give added
support to the hair shapes so as to retain style as long as possible.
There are aids available to meet most needs. Product knowledge will help you select the correct one
for your client. The aids in the following list may contain:
• Plasticizers to enfold and support the hair

• Moisturizers to retain or resist moisture

• Protective screeners

• Silicone shiners

• Sun protectors

Blow styling aids protect the hair from excessive heat, augment the length of time for which the
hair shape is held and give body to the hair
There are different hair aid strengths.
• Firm hold

• Extra hold

• Medium hold

• Ultra-hold

• Ultimate hold

 Dressing aids give sheen, shine, gloss and glitz to the hair. Gels, oils, silicones, mousses, foams
and waxes used to reflect light and to enhance a healthy-looking shape.
 Setting aids enhance hair elasticity, help the hair to keep its spring and bounce, and allow it to
stretch easily.
 Protective aids shield the hair from the harsh effects of exposure to the sun.
 Curl enhances the hair to retain curl or wave formation longer and include perm enhancers.
