Every day, I get intimidated by a certain snippet of my morning routine. It\u2019s a feeling that I know many women privately share, because when I look to my left and to my right every morning, I see other women struggling with it, too.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the hurried beautification process in the gym locker room.\u00a0After a 45-minute workout class and a 2-minute shower, I\u2019m standing at the mirror next to five or six others. By the looks of it, my hair is soaked, my skin is bare, and the clock is ticking. We\u2019ve got about 10 minutes to assemble ourselves into office-ready alpha-females. Do you know the feeling?<\/p>\n

On one hand, \u201cYikes\u2026\u201d But, hey, on the other hand, \u201cGame on.\u201d<\/p>\n

Enter Glam+Go CEO Erika Wasser: Queen of blowouts, Queen of fast beauty services, and naturally, Queen of female confidence. Erika and I got real last week about how she remedies these nightmarish \u201cYikes\u201d moments for a living. Her nationwide blowout empire Glam+Go mass-produces fast blowouts for busy women, just like you and me.<\/p>\n

In the spirit of that \u201cGame on\u201d approach, Erika let me in on the golden secrets of fast-beauty. She told me, \u201cWe like to say that a great hair day is not about hair. We are selling confidence.\u201d<\/p>\n

So, ladies, this is our ammo! And we are all going to take these tips straight to the gym locker room:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The right blowout primer can work wonders.<\/h1>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \u201cThere are certain blowout primers that speed up your time,\u201d Erika told me. \u201cTime is of the essence, of course. Lord knows we are leading a conference call at 9am sharp, and we are not going to be late because we were busy blow-drying. Living Proof\u2019s Blowout Spray is an affordable option that\u2019s both paraben-free and cruelty-free. I\u2019ve used for years now and I trust it with my life.\u201d<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. \n

      \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Shine serum is life changing!<\/h1>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Erika\u2019s next tidbit: \u201cThere are certain shine serums that will really help with any sort of frayed ends. It\u2019s probably obvious that the gym\u2019s in-shower shampoo and conditioner are not doing us any favors in terms of frizz and shine. So whatever your hair routine may be, this is a two-second addendum that will make you look like you\u2019ve just stepped out of the salon. Living Proof also sells a travel-sized shine serum that you can conveniently buy when you grab their blowout spray. This shine spray is oil-free, so you don\u2019t risk looking greasy.\u201d (Note: Whenever you\u2019ve got shine spray, spray it only at the ends or below your ears. Don\u2019t spray your roots!)<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. \n

        \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Section by section<\/h1>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Yes, products can do a lot to make us look great fast. Erika said of Glam+Go: \u201cI mean we really scour what is fresh and new and out there to make sure that we are using the best products.\u201d But the key to saving time is in the sectioning. \u201cReally clean organized sectioning\u2014that\u2019s really like the blueprint of your blowout, so if you can section really well, you can actually move a lot faster,\u201d Erika told me.<\/p>\n

        So, just how valuable is it to start your day off with these tips? \u201cOh my God, you see people\u2019s posture change in the chair. You see women walk differently when their hair is done. I mean, it really is your calling card. It changes your face. It changes how you feel about the day,\u201d she says. In other words, goodbye \u201cYikes\u201d moments in the gym locker room.<\/p>\n

        Express Blowouts at a Glam+Go salon<\/h1>\n

        This one isn\u2019t so much of a secret as much as it is the holy grail of solutions. With the Express Blowout, you can get a 15-minute blowout done by a Glam+Go stylist at one of their salon locations. (You can also pay with Class Pass points.) Glam+Go is currently in New York, Miami, and D.C. But if you live elsewhere, just sit tight for now. Erika told me that she has plans to expand to at least three additional cities next year. \u201cFor 2019, Boston is on our radar, Austin, San Francisco, and then expanding in our current markets,\u201d she notes.<\/p>\n

        Shhhh\u2026!<\/h1>\n

        Here\u2019s the last BIG secret Erika let me in on: \u201cGlam+Go is going to be coming out with a line of products in 2019. Probably holidays 2019, this time next year.\u201d What will the products be like? Oh, only everything we\u2019ve ever dreamed of and more.<\/p>\n

        \u201cThey are going to be about product for the women on the go, and making blowouts accessible for busy women. For example, blowout base, which is essentially a primer that helps speed up your dry time. We\u2019ll have one that starts on wet hair for our Signature Blowout, and one that is specific for starting on dry hair, which will help people replicate the express blowout at home. Things like shine sprays, frizz sheets, hair spray. But everything is going to be packaged and presented for busy women. So, you know, think purse-sized packaging versus giant bottles that would only go in your bathroom.\u201d<\/p>\n

        Soooo! I don\u2019t know about you but my 2019 Christmas list is pretty much complete now, even though we\u2019re still looking at Christmas 2018… \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
