Quick answer
Prep + Set Hair Clips do not directly create blow-dry volume, but they make sectioning easier, which is the real key to lifting roots and adding body.
Why sectioning matters for volume
Blow-dry volume comes from lifting hair at the root and directing it away from the scalp while drying. Sectioning clips help you work in smaller, manageable parts so you can focus heat and tension exactly where you want lift. Without clips, sections tend to blend together, and roots dry flat against the head.
The clip itself doesn't add volume—it's the technique it enables that makes the difference. A good sectioning clip simply holds hair out of the way without leaving dents, so you can dry each section with precision.
What Prep + Set Hair Clips do (and don't do)
Prep + Set Hair Clips are designed to hold most hair types securely without creasing, thanks to their smooth, flat shape. That means you can clip up sections while you dry the rest, and when you unclip, there won't be a stubborn line or kink in your hair.
What they don't do is lift roots or add heat. They are a tool for organization, not a styling device. If you're hoping for volume, pair them with a round brush and a dryer aimed at the roots.
Myth vs. truth: Sectioning clips and volume
- Myth: Sectioning clips themselves create blow-dry volume.
- Truth: Volume comes from drying roots with lift. Clips simply hold other sections out of the way so you can focus on technique.
- Best practice: Use Prep + Set Hair Clips to separate your hair into 4–6 sections. Dry each section at the root with a round brush, lifting upward. Unclip only when that section is completely dry. Check that each section is fully dry before releasing—damp roots fall flat and lose volume.
