  • Have you seen this viral root volume hack by @ash.ires Would you try this volume hack?
    I thought the concept was very innovative but unfortunately, I found that the hair sitting underneath the clip took to long to dry… I also noticed that playing with my hair while it is wet and after styling created more frizz than I prefer.

    Idk why I started it, but I used to sort of clamp up my roots like this without the criss crossing beforehand. It does absolutely give a lot of volume (although sometimes it stands in a weird shape after you let it out, maybe the criss crossing helps with that) and for some reason makes my hair curl waaaayyyyy nicer, even without any product. Tbh half the time I didn't even worry if my roots were completely and totally dry when I let them out and the results were still typically pretty good. So yeah I could definitely see this working for me as just an extra step to something I used to do lol

    I’ve been doing this for a month or two since I saw the bud and this is my routine (I have 3a hair that’s damaged so it’s 2c/2b in most spots)
    I apply all my products and scrunch excess water out with a microfiber towel. then I layer the pieces like in the video and add a piece from the back of my head lying forward towards my face. I clip it with the long part going towards the back to make sure I grab each section. I hover diffuse until my hair is about 50 ish percent dry making sure to get super close to the clipped roots at all angles. then I unclip the roots, gently rearrange them to their sides, and either air dry or pixie diffuse the rest of the way. there might be a little volume sacrificed by manipulating them but it usually turns out pretty cute.

    Do this after diffusing your hair. If it’s just a little moist and not sipping wet it can fry better. That would be a better test.

    Blow drying in the opposite direction was exactly how the scene kids got their fluffy bangs back when i was in school

    I have straight hair- and not “TikTok taught me my straight hair is secretly wavy” but seriously very straight lol. Always on board for trying volume tricks, even if it’s for curly hair-we will see if it works!

    My hair is much shorter, Super fine, and thinner on top from previous stress, bad water, and bad nutrition. Although I've got about 80% of it back in the last few years (cut my stress, put a water filter on my shower, and eat much better). So, that technique would probably work for me, but I could tell your hair is at least three times thicker and was going to have a hard time drying. You might could do it if you sectioned it off in at least three parts. I use root clipping and have really good success with it, but the trick is to do it a bit messy so that it looks natural.

    Saw the same video, it's been working so well for me. I only do it for a few minutes then I take them out & finish defusing

    I wish my hair was curly like that. Humidity in FL just gives me frizzy waves
