2. ’90s Supermodel Blowout

The ’90s supermodel blowout is bigger, bolder, and more dramatic than the classic version. It features lifted roots, sweeping layers, rounded ends, and noticeable volume around the face.

This style is inspired by glamorous editorial hairstyles but can be adapted for everyday wear. On medium-length hair, it creates a luxurious silhouette without requiring extensions.

Who It Suits Best

This voluminous blowout works particularly well for:

  • Medium to thick hair
  • Layered shoulder-length cuts
  • Hair with long face-framing pieces
  • Oval, heart, oblong, and diamond face shapes
  • Anyone who loves glamorous, statement-making hair

Fine hair can also achieve the look with root-lifting spray, lightweight mousse, and large rollers.

Styling Tips

Begin with damp hair and distribute volumizing mousse evenly. Rough-dry the roots until the hair is approximately 70% dry.

Divide the hair into sections and use a large ceramic round brush. Pull the front sections upward and away from the face to create dramatic lift. Roll each section toward the scalp and secure it in a large roller.

Allow the hair to cool completely before removing the rollers. Gently separate the sections with your fingers rather than brushing aggressively.
