As we gear up for fall and winter in 2023, it's time to equip ourselves with the tools and techniques needed to satisfy our clients' needs and wants. And to be honest, some of our own. In this guide, we'll explore the upcoming trends your clients will be asking for and introduce you to the essential styling companions – the FHI Heat dryers.
We’ll start by sayingThe Retro Dryer will definitely look the chicest at your styling station (and its compact, so it travels well!), but there are so many incredible dryers to dive into.
Oh and before we get into that, this pumpkin spice (or cowgirl red) is SO in right now. And when you’re styling hair with color, you want to be as protective as possible. Luckily, FHI Heat designs with hair health in mind, every time. Now, let’s get into it.
Style 1: Face-Framing Layers (Like, a lot of them)
Get ready to bring back those iconic face-framing layers, reminiscent of Rachel from Friends, as they make a triumphant return. This is one of those cuts that looks fresh right out of the salon, and can flop at home. So suggest a great dryer and a round brush for your client to bring home. If you are part of the Pro Commission Program, you can earn some cash on the side!
The Dryer you’ll need:The 2200 Accelerate Speed Dryer
The 2200 Accelerate Speed Dryer is your go-to choice for crafting these layers. Its advanced brushless (BLDC) motor ensures quick yet gentle drying, minimizing heat damage. With this dryer, you'll achieve stunning layers with a lustrous shine while saving valuable styling time for daily perfection.
Style 2: Slick Waves
Prepare to channel your clients' inner off-duty models with the sleek and glossy allure of slick waves. Achieving that polished, slicked-back effect requires precision, and for drying, it's all about control, especially with a diffuser in hand. This dryer will serve you in so many other ways as a stylist as well.

Style 3: The Side Part (only BIGGER)
We never thought we’d see the day but the side part is back and bigger than ever. This sideswept look is going to be everywhere, and we even saw Kylie Jenner rocking it recently at a fashion show!
The dryer you’ll need: The Handless Dryer
This is another look where control matters, so The Handless Dryer works like a dream! What you want is volume so you can get that big arch. Blowing forward and upwards will do the trick.

The dryer you’ll need: Something mobile
