How to Use the Mark Hill Hot Air Brush on Short Hair

Want to achieve that bouncy blow-dry look at home? Follow these simple steps to get the best results from your Mark Hill Hot Air Brush:

Step 1: Prep Your Hair

  • Start with freshly washed, towel-dried hair.
  • Apply Mark Hill Volume Mousse to your roots and mid-lengths for added volume and hold.
  • Comb through to evenly distribute the product.

Step 2: Section Your Hair

 

Step 3: Style with the Hot Air Brush

  1. Select the right heat setting (low for fine hair, higher for thicker strands).
  2. Place the brush at your roots, then slowly pull it through to the ends, letting the bristles grip your hair.
  3. For volume, rotate the brush slightly as you move it through the mid-lengths and ends.

Step 4: Lock in Your Style

  • Use the cool-down setting to set your look and add extra shine.
  • Lightly finger-comb your hair to loosen any overly defined sections for a natural, effortless finish.

Tips and Tricks for Short Hair Styling

  • Work in Smaller Sections: This gives you better control and ensures each part of your hair is styled to perfection.
  • Angle for Volume: Hold the brush at an upward angle when styling the roots to create extra lift.
  • Use the Cool-Down Feature: This helps lock in your style and reduces frizz for a polished finish.
  • Pair with Products: The Mark Hill Volume Mousse adds fullness and makes styling even easier.
  • Clean Your Brush Regularly: To maintain performance, remove any hair buildup from the bristles.
