Iona, who posts under @sparklesandskin, said she swears by the John Frieda Volume Lift Root Boosting Spray to give her roots a boost.
She shared: 'This spray is magic if you have no natural volume at the root like me, and your hair is always flat.
'My hair is always flat at the root, whether I'm wearing it straight or curly.'
She shared how she saturates the whole crown of her head, where her roots are usually flat.
The beauty lover added: 'Then I dry it like normal, and I'll show you the after.'
After blowdrying her hair, she showed her roots with more height and thickness than usual.
She continued: 'Look how much volume it's given me.
'It's the John Frieda Volume Lift Root Boosting Spray, and it's only £7.99. Seriously a must-have if you have flat hair.'
You can pick up the spray online and in stores, and it is 'designed to protect against heat, boost hair and thicken strands for natural-looking volume.'
The Boots website states: 'Towel dry and spray Luxurious Volume Blow-Dry Lotion onto hair, concentrating on roots, ensuring that undersection and surface are fully covered.
My hair's so thin you can see my scalp but miracle £8 buy fixes it in seconds
'Blow-dry hair as usual.
'For great body and lift, blow-dry hair upside down.'
Hundreds of people have liked Iona's post, with many saying they love it too.

Love Island's Yasmin's secret twin sister Zara leaves ITV viewers in stitches as she recreates some of her sibling's most iconic one-liners

Love Island's Yasmin Pettet's twin sister Zara has sent ITV viewers into a frenzy as she recreated some of her sibling's most memorable one liners. The reality star, 24, has stirred trouble in the villa as one of the most iconic bombshells with her savage catchphrases. And now that she has become a fan favourite, her sister has taken to her TikTok to share a montage of her mimicking some of her best moments. In a clip posted to social media, she recreated the moment when the Islander told Harry to 'shut the f*** up and kiss her' in the Hideaway. She then continued by recreating the moment when Yasmin slammed Ben during a heated row as she delivered this line: 'Waste my money, waste whatever, don't f***ing waste my time.' And the clip was welcomed by fans of Yasmin as they flocked to the comments sharing their surprise between their similarities. One penned: ' I thought Yasmin got dumped and i missed a whole episode you look just like her. 'The mannerisms, the laugh, the voice? You guys are definitely related'; 'NO COS YOU ARE HER'; 'She looks like Yasmin more than Yasmin looks like Yasmin…' 'Slayyy and this woman is an Oxford grad!!!'; 'YOUR HER TWIN'; 'Vote for Yasmin and Jamie guys'; 'I wasn't a fan at first but now I'm starting to think she's iconic'. This comes after Love Island viewers were left stunned on Saturday night, after Yasmin appeared to directly address a popular fan conspiracy theory about her. The commercial banking executive has been plagued by long-running speculation that she is AI-generated since the start of the ITV2 series. The theory stemmed from fans clocking a string of 'glitchy' moments from her in the iconic villa, including her very upright posture while chatting with her co-stars and standing by the firepit, coupled with her slow blinking and formal speech patterns. It first gained traction after one fan took to TikTok to share a slew of clips of the Yas acting 'robotic', with the caption: 'Guys I'm scared... I think she's AI.' Since then the joke has snowballed, becoming a popular meme for this year's series, with fans frequently taking to affectionately refer to the sexy singleton as 'YasGPT' - in a play on AI chatbot, ChatGPT. In a clip posted to social media, she recreated the moment when the Islander told Harry to 'shut the f*** up and kiss her' in the Hideaway This comes after Love Island viewers were left stunned on Saturday night, after Yasmin appeared to directly address a popular fan conspiracy theory about her Fans have commented: 'Someone said Yasmin is AI and now I can't unsee it'; 'Yasmin has to be the first AI contestant and they're just not telling us. Something feels so off'. 'no one can convince me yasmin isnt ai generated'; 'Love Yasmin, our little AI robot. Whoever is programming her responses today is on form'; 'YasGPT is stiff as hell. She's definitely AI.' 'Convinced Yasmin is an ai bot sent from love island usa to cause havoc in the uk villa'; ''the batteries aren't 100%' did yasmin just confirm she is AI'. 'Are we sure Yasmin is not AI, she doesn't seem real'; ''the batteries are not 100%' yasmin is never beating the robot allegations i fear'; 'Yasmin is the certified first Love island AI icon'; 'I saw someone say Yasmin is AI and bro she is literally not real'; 'Are we sure Yasmin isn't AI robot?' 'Yasmin is almost a robot I'm kinda obsessed with it'; 'Yasmin wearing 80 denier tights during the height of summer in Mallorca proves she's AI because NO girl could survive that level of heat/friction'. 'Yasmin is never ever beating them AI bot allegations'; 'I actually love that we're seeing more of Yasmin's personality coming through. In true AI fashion she has learnt and developed. Since then the joke has snowballed, becoming a popular meme for this year's series, with fans frequently taking to affectionately refer to the sexy singleton as 'YasGPT' - in a play on AI chatbot, ChatGPT However, during Unseen Bits this weekend, it seemed as though Yas was aware of the public theory that she was an AI bot, as she insisted she was human. Sitting in the Beach Hut for a confessional, she was asked to show off her dance moves and immediately opted for the robot dance. She said: 'Oh my god, should I do the robot?' before letting slip: 'Everyone says I'm AI-generated anyway.' After attempting to her moves, she admitted: 'And I have to say, I am a real human. I'm not AI-generated, I wish I was though. I do feel like an alien sometimes.'

Despite making the most of the popular flavour, they did not seem impressed with the drink version. They wrote: 'wtf have Morrisons done?' The tipple combines the classic chocolate and nutty pistachio flavouring to deliver a deliciously sweet digestif cream liqueur. Many people were quick to agree with being baffled at the drink. One said: 'Why does EVERYTHING have to be Dubai chocolate.' Another added: 'Nope.' However, some people did seem impressed with the liquor, with one writing: 'tbf it is banging.' Donovan's Dubai Chocolate Style Country Cream Liqueur is available in Morrisons stores nationwide and online. It comes after Lidl was forced to place a shopping limit on its Dubai Chocolate-inspired exotic treat. Shoppers in frenzy over cheapest Dubai chocolate arrival in major Irish store at just €1.79 The Della Sante Dubai Style Chocolate Cream spread combines the flavours of the insanely popular chocolate but in spreadable form. That means you can slather it on toast, pile it onto pancakes, dip fruit in it or even spoon it from the jar. The sweet and salty pots cost £4.99 or £3.99 for Lidl Plus members, which is far more expensive than the store's other chocolate spreads. However, the price tag is not deterring customers, and the shop was forced to implement a strict three-jar-only policy.

It wasn't around for long though as it sold out in a mere 84 minutes. Numerous supermarkets and bargain stores have been jumping on the Dubai-style chocolate trend. One of the most-anticipated was the M&S version, which it turned out was a new take on the viral Big Daddy chocolate bar. The Big Daddy Pistachio is on the pricier end, costing £8.50 for a big 280g bar. Similarly posh supermarket Waitrose also released a version for £10.
