TikToker @shawna.piranha tried out Liz Fox Rosebury's trick for curling hair—and was stunned by the impressive results.

We've all been intrigued by the latest TikTok hacks, but unfortunately, we don't all end up with the same results as the creators of the viral videos.

However, we may have a winner for all on our hands... well, a winner for all with curly hair, anyway.


TikToker @shawnapiranha (Shawna) braved a hack from creator @foxcraftcustom that ended quite marvelously.

In the now-viral video, which has been viewed more than 29.2 million times, Shawna tried using a metal strainer as a diffuser while blow drying her hair.

She captioned the video:

"This may be the weirdest hack I've tried hahaha."

But we think she's glad she tried it.

Shawna began:

"Is this a terrible idea?"
"Probably. Let's do it."

The video shows Shawna blow drying her hair using the strainer as a diffuser.

When she finally reveals "the moment we've all been waiting for," the creator was pleasantly surprised at the results, finishing with:

"I'll be damned."
"It worked."

You can watch the diffuser dupe work its magic below.

Needless to say, viewers were sold.

Someone Flew A 'Trump Country' Banner Over Bernie And AOC's Packed Rally—And AOC Clapped Back Hard

Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had the perfect response after one of President Donald Trump's supporters flew a banner reading "Folsom Is Trump Country" over a Northern California rally she held with her colleague, Vermont Independent Senator Bernie Sanders.

She brushed off a warning that they were entering “Trump country” as the crowd swelled in deep-red Folsom, a Republican stronghold nestled in Representative Kevin Kiley’s district. Just to drive the point home, a small plane buzzed above the rally, trailing a banner in bold red letters: “Folsom Is Trump Country.”
