If you’ve ever walked out of Perlino in Cherry Creek feeling like a total queen, you know there is nothing quite like a professional blowout. The volume, the shine, and that “bounce” are hard to beat. But what happens between your appointments at the best salon in Denver?

Whether you’re heading to a brunch at Quality Italian or just want to feel polished for your stroll through Cherry Creek North, you can recreate that high-end finish at home.

Here is our expert guide on how to achieve the signature Perlino blowout using our favorite pro-grade tools and techniques.

1. The Foundation: Volume that Lasts

A great blowout starts in the shower, but it’s perfected with the right prep products. For that “extra” lift that Cherry Creek style is known for, we recommend Kérastase Densimorphose Hair Mousse.

Pro Tip: Apply a golf-ball-sized amount to damp hair, focusing on the roots. This mousse provides instant volume and substance without any crunch, making your hair feel thicker and easier to style.

2. The Secret Weapon: The Right Brush

To get that smooth, frizz-free finish, you need a brush that holds heat. We are currently obsessed with the Hey Mane 1.75-inch Medium Hot Round Brush. The ceramic barrel acts like a curling iron and a brush in one, helping to “set” the hair as you dry it.

Work in small sections, pulling the hair taut and directing the airflow from your dryer downward to seal the cuticle for maximum shine.

3. The Comeback Queen: Velcro Rollers

If you haven’t heard, Velcro rollers are making a BIG comeback! Gone are the days of them being “just for grandma.” Today’s trendiest Denver looks—from effortless 90s layers to voluminous waves—rely on the setting power of a good roller.

After drying a section with your Heymane brush, immediately wrap the warm hair around a Domdom Metal Hair Roller. The metal core helps retain heat, “locking” the curl into place while it cools.

Perlino Tip: Leave your rollers in for at least 15 minutes (or while you do your makeup). This is the secret to that bouncy, “just-left-the-salon” look that lasts all day.

4. Extend the Life of Your Look

Denver’s dry climate can be tricky, but your blowout doesn’t have to suffer. To keep your volume peaking into day two or three, use Kérastase Fresh Affair Dry Shampoo. Unlike many drugstore brands, this fine-fragrance powder absorbs oil while leaving a lightweight, breathable finish. It’s the perfect way to refresh your roots before heading out in the 80206.
