WE’VE all been caught in a bit of a bind when we need some emergency hair maintenance and don’t have straighteners to hand.

But a comical clip has emerged of a woman doing some last minute hair DIY with a clothes iron – and it turns out even Cardi B is a fan of the method.

In the Twitter clip, the unfazed woman can be seen touching up her locks using an iron in her room.

The man filming the styling session unfold can be heard saying “now you know she from Dallas if she doing this”.

The woman’s friends look slightly baffled as she smooths her roots using the household item and even ask if it is hot, to which she replies: “it needs to be”.

The clip has clearly struck a chord with Twitter users, who have viewed the video over 60,000 times and left comments reminiscing about when they did it too.

Using a clothes iron may seem like an urban myth, but it used to be all the rage before GHDs became a household essential.

And it appears even the likes of Cardi B are bringing it back as a go-to straightening technique.

The singer uploaded a clip to her Instagram revealing how she keeps her extra-long wig sleek.

One woman commented on the Twitter video saying: “Me back in the day when my mom wouldn’t let me buy a hair straightener.”

Another wrote: “I have that iron. Heats up fast af and it’s extremely lightweight.”
