A professional blowout will cost you anywhere from $50 to $275, based on the hair salon you choose and your hair type.
But one TikTok influencer found a way to achieve a perfectly smooth and beautiful look for cheap while reusing a common throw-away item in your house.

The scoop
In a viral TikTok video, Sarah Jacobson (@sarahhh0098) shared her hack for using old toilet rolls to create a stunning blowout.
In the video, she demonstrates how to dry and curl sections of hair before rolling them up with empty toilet paper tubes. The tubes are the perfect size for creating flowing waves with her long hair, using minimal effort or products.
"I let my intrusive thoughts win and had to try this," Sarah wrote in the video's caption.
After rolling her hair into the tubes, she releases the curls and applies a finishing spray to set the style.
How it's helping
Sarah's bouncy blowout hack is helpful because it encourages people to DIY their hair routines and save money on costly salon services.
Her hack also utilizes old toilet paper rolls that may have otherwise ended up in the trash. Toilet paper rolls work well to create a wavy, long hairstyle without getting stuck in the strands or requiring a new hair equipment purchase.
In addition to creating DIY hair rollers, you can reuse toilet paper rolls to make seed-starting pots and for plant propagation in your garden.
