Blowdrying Just Got Way Easier

Blowdrying your hair at home is hard work. Properly blowdrying your hair at home, however, is even harder — it takes serious coordination, arm strength, and a hell of a lot of patience. But, for those of us without the ability to afford weekly salon appointments, befriending the dryer is a necessary evil: We wake up a little earlier, grab our brushes and our leave-in conditioners, and pray for a good hair day.

Luckily, celebrity hairstylist Peter Butler wants to take the guesswork out of your morning routine. Butler is well-known for the beautiful, voluminous looks he styles — just ask Kate Upton, one of his loyal clients. Here, watch as he schools an R29 staffer on how to get a salon-quality blowdry at home. First, Butler shows her how he does it. Then, he challenges her to do the same. (Spoiler alert: She gives him a total run for his money.)
