You should blow dry your natural hair more often and here’s why..

Why You NEED to Blow Dry Natural Hair Before Trimming | Blow Dry Natural Hair Tips & Breakage Prevention

If you’ve ever wondered why you should blow dry natural hair before trimming, this is your answer! In this video, I walk you through a new client consultation where I blow dry her natural hair to assess the ends.

To the untrained eye, natural hair can look healthy when curly but the truth comes out when you blow dry and stretch it. This is why I always emphasize blow drying before a trim or cut. It reveals split ends, breakage, and unevenness you can’t see in its curly state.

💇🏽‍♀️ Curly cuts vs precision cuts:

Curly cuts shape the hair while curly.

Precision cuts remove dead ends with accuracy — but you can’t do this effectively without blow drying first.

In this client’s case, she had no idea she had breakage and split ends because she rarely blow dries her hair. But once we stretched it, the damage was clear — and that’s why proper assessment matters.

🔥 Tips for blow drying natural hair:

Always detangle before blow drying.

Use a heat protectant to prevent heat damage.

Blow dry in sections for better control.

Regularly assess your ends after blow drying.

Don’t skip trims — dead ends will travel up the hair shaft!
