Are Salons Ditching the Blowout Look? Here’s the Texture Everyone’s Asking For Instead
For years, the salon blowout has reigned supreme.
Big volume, brushed ends, ultra-polished finish—it’s been the go-to standard for "salon hair" across generations.
But something is shifting.
Fast.
At The Warehouse Salon in Fairfield, NJ, clients are trading in that classic smooth blowout for something more authentic, more wearable, and honestly? Way cooler.
Texture is having a moment.
And not the overly controlled, curled-with-a-wand kind.
We’re talking about natural-inspired texture—soft waves, lived-in movement, and that perfectly imperfect feel that says, “This is how my hair wants to exist.”
So, Are We Done With the Blowout?
Not exactly. Blowouts aren’t disappearing—they’re evolving. Clients still want polish, but not at the expense of personality.
What’s out:
-
Over-styled, stiff hair
-
Round-brushed helmets
-
Curls that don’t move
What’s in:
-
Air-dried finishes with intentional frizz
-
Loose texture with subtle bends
-
Hair that actually looks like yours, but elevated
Why Clients Are Embracing More Natural Texture
1. Time Matters
Modern beauty is about low-effort glam. Spending 45 minutes under a dryer for something that deflates by 2 p.m.? Not the vibe.
2. Self-Expression > Uniformity
There’s a growing appreciation for letting your natural texture shine—whether you’re wavy, curly, or straight with a little body. It’s about enhancing, not erasing.
3. Trend Meets Identity
The “clean girl” look is evolving into “real girl chic.” Think polished roots, undone ends, and styling that feels intentional—but never forced.
The Look Everyone’s Asking For
Here are the styles gaining traction:
-
Blowout-Waves Hybrid: Smooth roots + soft, natural bends through the ends
-
Barely-There Texture: A subtle kink or wave pattern that looks totally effortless
-
Lived-In Layers + Air-Dry Styling: Hair that looks great with minimal heat and maximum shape
-
Soft Curl Enhancements: Gentle support for natural curl patterns using diffusers and curl-friendly products

We use:
-

-
Air-dry routines that work in real life
-
Texture training (yes, that’s a thing!) to help clients love and work with their hair’s natural pattern
Will the Blowout Ever Really Go Away?
Not entirely. But what’s changing is the definition of a great finish.
It’s less about uniform volume and more about movement, moisture, and modern edge.
In 2025, texture isn’t a compromise.
It’s a flex.
