Idea 9: Crown Volume Blowout
How to Create
The crown volume blowout focuses specifically on lifting the hair at the top of the head to create height and dimension. This style is commonly featured in Pinterest ideas for formal hairstyles because it enhances the silhouette of the hairstyle when viewed from multiple angles in photographs.
Volume at the crown helps balance facial proportions and creates a sophisticated shape. Instead of relying on heavy teasing techniques, the blowout method uses controlled airflow and brush positioning to lift the roots naturally.
This hairstyle pairs well with elegant prom dresses and statement earrings because the lifted crown draws attention upward. The rest of the hair can remain softly waved or smooth depending on personal preference.
Setup Method
Apply volumizing mousse directly to the roots of damp hair before drying. Use a comb to distribute the product evenly throughout the top sections of the hair.
While blow-drying the crown area, place a round brush under the roots and lift the hair upward. Direct warm air underneath the section to set the volume while the brush holds the hair in position.
Repeat this step by step process across the crown area before continuing with the rest of the hair. Dry the remaining sections using a standard blowout technique with gentle waves or smooth curves.
After finishing, lightly arrange the hair so the crown remains elevated while the rest of the hair flows naturally. The result should be noticeable height and balanced volume.
