You can achieve a full-volume look that you can run your fingers through in just ten minutes.

Unicorn Blowout Tutorial

TRESemmé’s new Beauty-Full Volume Collection revolutionizes the way we care for our hair by reversing the hair-washing process we’ve used all our lives. Here’s what you’ll need to re-create the Unicorn Blow-dry, and it’s in order of how to be used.

TRESemmé Beauty-Full Volume Pre-wash Conditioner

TRESemmé Beauty-Full Volume Shampoo

Tresemme Reverse your Routine

This product is an awesome way to reverse your routine. Seriously, use the conditioner first – it reinforces the hair’s nature protective layer using a special technology and leaves your tresses smooth and polished. Next, wash away any weight created by the conditioner to remove and weight and add amazing bounce.

TRESemmé Beauty-Full Volume Hair Maximizer
Use this mainly on your ends, some on your crown isn’t a big deal.  This product is amazing for maintaining bounce and smoothness.

TRESemmé Beauty-Full Volume Touchable Bounce Mousse
Apply this mainly on your crown to help create a root lift and light hold – your hair will still be  smooth enough to still run your fingers through.

TRESemmé Beauty-Full Volume Flexible Finish Hairspray
This spray will be used to complete your style, relax any flyaways, and keep your hairstyle bouncing all day and night. The Dolls love this product because it holds without the stickiness of other hairsprays.

Other Tools:

  • Blow Dryer
  • Round brush – size of your choice
  • Elastic hair bands – they don’t leave a crease

5 Steps for a Magical Blow Out:

  • After you’ve conditioned then washed and applied product in the order we’ve listed above, use a large round brush to blowdry your hair starting with sections that frame your face.
  • After the first section is dry, tie it off at the top of your hairline with an elastic, mirroring a unicorn horn.
  • Repeat section by section until every strand is secure to the top of your head. You can use multiple elastics if that works best for you, we’ve tried to do the whole style with just one and it’s always best to use multiple, maybe three for top of crown, middle and lower level hair.
  • After the style is complete take out all the elastics. By using this unicorn method, you will create an amazing amount of volume with gorgeous texture to your ends without using any other heat styling tools, curlers or rollers.
  • Strike a pose.

There’s just something about spending the start of your day as a mystical unicorn that keeps you happy all day long.

  1. I get keratin treatments, so I pay lots of money to get rid of my natural curls. I tend to always wear my hair down because I love that I finally have the straight hair that I always wanted.

  4. I hope its not one of those things that look easy on someone else to do because I will try it out. The videos are super helpful… let’s see.

  6. Oh I love this! I’ve been trying to figure out ways to get more volume in my blowout. Despite having naturally curly hair, I seriously lack volume (it’s where triangle head comes from!) so this is going to be super helpful. Thanks for sharing!

  9. I have heard about the reverse washing idea, but never tried it. I feel like I need to give it a go and see the results for myself – but your hair looks so amazing! I havent used Treseme, but will give it a go next time I’m at Target! Karen | GlamKaren.com

  12. Wow! This is simply gorgeous! I love the easy steps! I am going to have to try this tomorrow. Today is a pony tail kind of day!

  15. I have been using conditioner first for about a year now – people think I am crazy! Glad I am not alone. This blow-out looks fantastic! Now if I could only use a round brush without it getting caught in my hair! I do not girl well.

    • Wow! You are ahead of the game, Rachel. TRESemmé’s products are specially formulated to use the conditioner first. We love it!

  16. I haven’t used Tresemme products in quite a long time. My hair is a much different texture than yours being AA so I’m not even sure if I can pull that style off. You totally rocked it though!

  22. My hair is usually just put back into a bun, and I never wear makeup, I should really at least start doing things with my hair! Tutorials make it a lot easier for people like myself who never do anything with their hair! 🙂

  24. I need to try this! My hair is so so fine, and I always get concerned about blow drying which just makes my hair look crazy. Very impressive!

  29. That was a lot of fun to watch. I have super curly frizzy hair and I like to blow it smooth. I can’t wait to try this method and see how it works for me.

  30. This looks like a great way to get hair straightened, mine is naturally curly and I had not seen this method before.

  31. Omg your hair looks fabulous!!! I just love a good blowout! Totally need to give myself one!

  32. Perfection my hair is huge !!!! But I will definitely be using this on my daughter live it ao glad I saw this.

  34. Wow! Your hair looks fantastic. It’s rare that I spend the time blow drying my hair because it’s so long but I’ll try this this weekend before I go to the ballet.

  36. Ugh my hair is so flat it’s not even funny. I’ve got to try this tutorial out, my hair needs all the volume it can get! I usually purchase Tresemme products so I’ll be on the lookout for the flexible hairspray. 🙂
