Hair Care Before and After Using a Hair Styler: Dyson Airwrap & Airstraight Tips

Styling tools like the Dyson Airwrap and Airstraight are game-changers—they let you achieve professional-looking results at home, without exposing your hair to extreme heat. But to get the best out of these innovative tools—and to keep both your hair and the device in great shape—it’s important to follow a few simple steps, both before and after use.

🔹 Before Styling: Preparation is Key

1. Hair Should Be Damp, Not Soaking Wet or Fully Dry

Dyson Airwrap performs best on damp hair. After washing, gently towel dry or use the device’s pre-styling dryer until your hair is about 80% dry. Overly wet hair won’t hold the style, and completely dry hair won’t respond well to the Airwrap’s shaping effect.

2. Choose the Right Attachment for Your Hair Goals

Looking for volume, curls, or a sleek finish? Dyson provides different barrel and brush attachments for each effect. Long barrels are best for longer hair, while standard ones are great for shorter styles.

3. Adjust Heat and Speed Settings Based on Your Hair Type

Fine hair requires lower heat, while thick or coarse hair may need higher airflow and warmth. Thankfully, the Dyson tools regulate temperature automatically to protect your strands—making them safer for frequent use.

🔹 While Styling: Tips for Better Results

• Work in Small Sections: Dividing your hair into small strands allows better control and more defined results—especially for curls.

• Use the Cool Shot Feature: After curling or shaping a section, activate the cool air for a few seconds to lock the style in place and help it last longer.

🔹 After Styling: Treat Your Hair with Care

Although Dyson tools are gentler than traditional hot tools, your hair still benefits from post-styling nourishment to maintain softness, shine, and strength.

1. Apply a Nourishing Serum

Use a lightweight serum on your ends to hydrate and protect. Look for formulas with argan oil, jojoba oil, or keratin.

🟣 La Rachel Hair Serum is rich in natural oils and vitamins, delivering deep nourishment while adding a silky finish. It also provides heat protection to maintain hair health post-styling.

2. Support with a Leave-In Conditioner

Especially for dry or treated hair, a leave-in conditioner adds softness, helps detangle, and creates a protective barrier.

🟣 La Rachel Hair Mask works beautifully as a daily leave-in product. It prevents frizz and keeps hair manageable—without weighing it down.

3. Use Post-Heat Repair Products

“After-heat” repair treatments are formulated to restore lost moisture and protein after styling. They improve elasticity and strengthen the hair shaft.

🟣 La Rachel Repair Mask & Hair Sprays are perfect for hair that’s been exposed to heat. They rebuild weak strands, reduce breakage, and bring back natural shine.

4. Don’t Forget Your Scalp

Healthy hair starts at the roots. If you use styling tools regularly, take time to massage your scalp with natural oils like coconut or lavender to boost circulation and reduce shedding.

🟣 La Rachel Hair Care Set includes scalp-friendly products that not only nourish hair but also energize the roots for healthy growth.

5. Deep Condition Weekly

Once or twice a week, use a rich hair mask to deeply hydrate and repair your strands. Masks with keratin, biotin, or vitamin E help restore strength and elasticity.

🟣 La Rachel Hair Mask is a go-to for repairing heat-styled hair. It combats dryness and rebuilds fragile ends, leaving your hair stronger, shinier, and easier to manage.

💬 Final Thoughts: Technology Meets Natural Care

While tools like the Dyson Airwrap offer a safer way to style your hair, combining them with the right hair care routine makes all the difference.
Support your styling with La Rachel’s nourishing treatments to protect your hair, extend your style, and keep your strands looking their best—day after day.
