You're drying your hair wrong – simple brush technique instantly boosts volume

Every day is better when you have a good hair day - it's just a fact.

But, when you're left with the responsibility of styling your own locks, it can be harder than you think to achieve. One beauty mistake a lot of people make involves hair drying.

It turns out a lot of us are making a simple error that's causing our hair to go flat. All has been explained by @mattloveshair on TikTok as his recent tutorial has gone viral online.

In an online clip, he revealed the common mistake people make, saying: "Don't blowdry your front pieces under the brush if you want volume. Instead, blowdry your front pieces over the brush. And then if you want your ends to flick away from your face, just define your part, and go back in and smooth the length with a twist away from your face."

In the clip, he makes it look so easy, but it'll probably take some practice to pull off. Nonetheless, it's a simple way to add volume once you master the technique.

The video has been liked more than 120,000 times since it's been shared, and social media users were quick to comment. Lots of people admitted they easily get their hair stuck in the brush, which causes them issues.

One person said: "I swear it always looks so easy. I'm 42, and still can't ever do my hair." Another replied: "I'm a cosmetology student, and I literally should be paying you tuition because I learn something from you every day."

A third added: "Thanks - I will forever hear this in my head when blowdrying my hair." Meanwhile, a fourth also commented: "As a flat, poker straight hair girly, I owe you. I think I'm in love. You're amazing. Out there doing the Lord's work."
