If you’re getting ready for a special event or just want to look more polished, treating yourself to a blowdry is an excellent choice. At Rush, we specialise in customised blowdry experiences tailored to your hair type, desired look, and lifestyle. Whether you prefer bouncy volume, sleek shine, or soft waves, our expert stylists will ensure you leave the salon feeling confident and ready for the occasion.
What Is a Blowdry?
A blowdry is a professional hair service that includes washing, drying, and styling the hair with a hairdryer and round brush. This technique helps achieve a desired finish, whether it’s smooth, voluminous, or sleek. At Rush, we customise each blowdry based on your hair type, texture, and styling goals, allowing for a range of looks from soft curls to a glossy straight finish.
The Benefits of a Blowdry
Customised Styles
Whether you’re looking for a red carpet-worthy style or something softer and more relaxed, our stylists will personalise your blowdry to match your vision. It’s always a good idea to discuss your preferences beforehand and bring any images for reference. A blow dry will add volume, shine, and movement, creating a polished look that lasts.
Long-Lasting Results:
Unlike air-drying or DIY styling, a professional blowdry ensures your hair stays styled throughout the day or even several days, depending on aftercare.
Blowdry vs. Blowout
Blowdry
A blowdry focuses on achieving a smooth, natural look. It’s ideal for everyday styling and adds subtle volume and shape to the hair.
Blowout
By comparison, a blowout typically delivers more volume, structure, and a more glamorous finish, perfect for occasions such as weddings, parties, or even red-carpet moments.

Does a Blowdry Damage Hair?
Not when done right! At Rush, we use professional tools, heat protectants, and gentle techniques that keep your hair healthy and hydrated. Our stylists are trained to apply just the right amount of heat to deliver a lasting style without compromising hair health.
How to Care for Your Blowdry
Use Heat Protectants
Always apply a heat protectant before styling to lock in moisture and shield strands from high temps.
Avoid Over-Washing
Washing your hair too frequently can strip away natural oils and reduce the longevity of your blowdry. Aim for every 2–3 days.
Use Sulphate-Free Products
Opt for sulphate-free shampoos and conditioners to keep your blowdry looking fresh and glossy for longer.
