Emerson Salon – Capitol Hill Seattle

What you’ll need:

Start by applying a smoothing product to towel dried hair. I recommend Body Guard by Kevin Murphy or Alterna Straightening Balm. Then, using a blow dryer, get your hair about 75% dry. Next section your hair horizontally using a butterfly clip to hold it into place. Then, blow dry your hair with a brush back and forth, flat against your head. Follow through to the ends with blow dryer and brush. I highly recommend using a Mason Pearson brush, because of it’s ability to create tension. The tension, along with the right products, is what helps us create smooth and straight hair that lasts. A regular paddle brush will also work O.K. Finish with Alterna Smoothing Lotion or Kevin Murphy Easy Rider to prevent frizz and protect the hair from humidity.
