The days of the board-straight blowout are – if the spring fashion layouts are to be believed – on the wane. In their place is a modern take on the big-hair Dynasty styles that we all remember so well (if not fondly). So if you’re tempted to take your mousse and hot rollers out of hibernation, consider instead paying a visit to Pedro Sanchez and Dominick Pucciarello at Warren Tricomi. Both stylists are fast, and their work lasts for three to four days – and longevity is, after all, the true test of a great blowout. Pedro specializes in taming even the most frizz-prone locks, while Dominick pumps up the volume by finishing his blow-drys with a roller set for a fuller style ($60). Or try Zhanna Lazareva at John Freida – the epicenter of frizz-free locks – whose magic touch with the blowdryer manages to give even Bernadette Peters types silky bedroom hair ($55).
