Webb recommends a round boar bristle or aluminum Bio Ionic brush for achieving beautiful volume and sheen—never use a flat brush! Make sure to dry hair in small, neat sections for a long-lasting blowout.

Humidity got you down? Employ lots of tension when blowing out your hair and make sure every section is bone-dry before stepping outside. Use a heavy-duty pomade to combat frizz and flyaways, and for extra security, style with a flatiron or curling iron.
