Wondering if Bounce Curl Root Clips work on flat, heavy hair? Look no further! Let’s look at these volume hair clips!
My hair is naturally soooo flat. My curls are really heavy and dense, so volume is something I kissed goodbye a long time ago. Because of this, I normally wear my hair half up/half down (or fully up!) I usually would use a claw clip to clip up my roots while drying, but the lift didn’t really last beyond a couple hours.
My go to hairstyle due to my volume issue!
When Bounce Curl Root Clips came out, I initially didn’t bother with them because my hair usually is too heavy for any sort of volume. I started to see lots of videos with crazy before and afters, so I decided to give them a try.
Prior to trying Bounce Curl Root Clips, these were my concerns:
- potential snagging/discomfort
- lift only lasts a few hours and then goes flat again
- lift is the same I could achieve with a claw clip
I have been using them for a few months now and I have used them in combination with a lot of different curl styling products to really see how they perform.
My experience with Bounce Curl Root Clips a nutshell:
- they do provide exceptional lift
- the lift lasts until my next wash day
- they don’t snag on my hair
- easy to use
Would I recommend them? My honest thoughts
Yes, I definitely would recommend Bounce Curl Root Clips! I only have 3 comments about them:
1) you can air dry or diffuse, you’ll receive better results if you diffuse but I personally chose to air dry.
2) you might not get the same volume as some that other girls online do. We are all different (and beautiful) so various products and routines will also give different results from person to person.
3) the clips were a lot thinner than I expected. They definitely aren’t flimsy or weak, just not as thick as I anticipated. I was concerned at first but quickly realised this is a good thing since they are quite comfortable to wear and if they were thicker, they would be rather uncomfortable.
I have been using Bounce Curl Root Clips for a couple months now and can certainly say I can’t see myself going back! These are an absolute must for me. That extra little lift gives me a huge boost of confidence! I love them so much. 10/10 recommend.
Taking the clips out
When I took the clips out, I had a little cast (due to my gel) and my curls were quite set. I scrunched out the crunch using my Bondi Boost Oil and then my curls were able to be super free and bouncy!
I hope you enjoyed this review! It’s one of my new years resolutions to write more in depth reviews, so if you want to request any reviews/blogs/videos, feel free to let me know on my Instagram – I’d love to help!

Travelling hack
If you are wanting to travel with these clips, don’t use the original Bounce Curl box that they come in. That box is cute, but huge! Just put them in a cosmetic bag & make sure the bag is well surrounded by soft clothes to ensure they don’t get pressed down. Considering the beautiful lift they offer, these are well worth bringing on your trips to keep your curls look exceptional everywhere you go!
PS: if you like how my hair looks in these photos, I used all Pretty Curly Girl products to style that day! I actually also recorded and posted it, so you can view the steps that took place before putting the clips in here.
