This New Hair Primer Is About To Make Your At-Home Blowouts So Much Easier

A preliminary coat is also necessary for hairstyling, and Davines' new This is a Blow Dry Primer is a solid one to keep in your arsenal.

Depending on how it's used, primer can do a number of tricks: It can protect against environmental hazards, prolong a look, promote fullness, or create a clean base. In the case of hair, it can do all that plus speed up the styling process — a godsend for anyone who breaks into a sweat after just a few minutes of blow drying (*raises hand*).

It's especially beneficial during summer, when hair is most prone to looking like an '80s perm gone wrong. Davine's newest addition not only protects against the heat of harsh styling tools; it also keeps guarding against the humidity that wreaks constant havoc on hair this time of year. A healthy spritz of primer pre-styling helps to extend the life of a hairstyle, preserving its smoothness and shine against all hot-and-steamy odds.
