The Virtue Hair Share®: Healthy Hot Brush Styling With Gia Wendt & Shannon O’Brien
Ever wish you could sit down with a professional stylist and pick their brain on all things hair? Want to watch someone else with a similar hair type style theirs, so you can take away the best tips?
Us too—that’s why we developed Self Styling With a Pro. In this installment, Stylist and Virtue® Ambassador Gia Tovar helps Chicago Makeup Artist Shannon O’Brien use a hairstyling tool that many of us keep in the bathroom: a hot brush dryer.
These hot brush stylers are a blow dryer and hair brush in one, which makes at-home blowouts a breeze, but can cause serious hair damage. Watch to learn Gia’s helpful tricks and the Virtue® products needed to style with a hot brush styler for healthy, beautiful results.
