The Fundamentals

HeaD AreA is education.  Over 50 combined years in this business have produced a masterful set of tools that every stylist must tackle before they hit the floor. You've got to walk before you run.

This is Brianna, who joined our team just last week. Today, our stylist Kitt is taking her through the Flat Brush Blow Dry.

This is one of several key blow drying techniques utilized in every service at the salon. This style of blow drying, done with a flat Denham brush and a blow dryer, leaves the hair smooth and super shiny.

Like many things in hair styling, it looks deceivingly simple. Hair is manipulated in particular ways to maximize body while maintaining a smoother than silk finish. Learning the angles and patterns to allow for such feats take patience and practice practice practice.
The results are not only gorgeous, but they prepare the hair for any other sort of styling the client might need. This blow is a staple at photo-shoots, runway shows, and (of course) at HeaD AreA.
