This viral hair clip for just €3.99 is something everyone wants to have
for ama(y)zing volume
You know how it is. You just blow-dried your hair, are completely happy with your hairstyle, and a gust of wind later everything is flat. Especially the volume at my roots seems impossible to maintain sometimes. And although there are plenty of more expensive styling tools that promise a full blow-out, I don't always feel like immediately spending my wallet money on that.
Fortunately, I spotted an affordable hack at Kruidvat that might be worth trying: the Viral Volume Clip from Zenner x Quinty Mirjam. And the best part: this hair clip costs only €3.99 and is designed to give your hair a little extra lift while blow-drying.
For less than four euros a fuller hairstyle
The Zenner x Quinty Mirjam Viral Volume Clip is a very handy hair clip for those who want a bit more body in their hair. You place the clip at the roots, so your strands stay in a lifted position while drying. Once you remove the clip, your hair falls just a bit fuller.
The nice thing is that you don't have to buy a whole new hairdryer for this. Start with something cheaper, for €3.99 you can just try out this hair hack. Of course, don't expect a complete Hollywood blow-out from a small accessory, but it is just an affordable way to play with your styling routine so that it stays a bit fuller.
Step-by-step guide on how to use this hair clip
Good news for everyone who immediately thinks of complicated TikTok tutorials at the word hair styling: this hack doesn't have to take hours of your time. It's mainly about the right placement and a bit of patience while drying.
- Step 1: prepare your hair. Start with your usual blow-drying routine. It's smart to apply some mousse at the roots to give your hair extra firmness and support. Don't use half a bottle right away, because you want your strands to feel airy and not greasy.
- Step 2: place the clip at the roots. Lift the section of hair where you want to create more volume and secure the Viral Volume Clip at the roots. Especially at the front and on top of your head, a little extra lift can make your hairstyle look fuller. Also, make sure the clip is secured well.
- Step 3: blow-dry your hair into shape. Blow-dry your strands while the clip stays in place. This way, your hair can dry while being held in a lifted position. Keep your hairdryer at a distance and use a temperature that suits your hair type. You don't need to blow-dry your hair extra hot to get more volume.
- Step 4: let your hair cool down. This might be the most important tip of the whole routine. Don't remove the clip right away as soon as you turn off the hairdryer, but give your hair a moment to cool down. This way, your hairstyle gets the chance to hold its shape better.
- Step 5: take out the clip and style your hair. Carefully remove the clip and use your fingers or a comb to loosely style your hair. You want to keep the roots airy and not brush out all the created volume immediately.
Does the volume clip work for every hair type?
That depends on your hair, of course. For fine hair, the clip can help create a bit more height at the roots. For thicker or heavier hair, the result may be different, and you might need to pay a bit more attention to blow-drying and styling.
Good to know: the clip doesn't actually make your hair thicker and doesn't provide permanent volume. How long the result lasts varies by hair type and also depends on how you style your hair.
