We all love ingenious travel hacks. Kristen Black, a TikTok influencer, showed how to easily pack a hair straightener into luggage when it has just been unplugged and is still hot.

Many women know the story: a few minutes before leaving for the airport, we remember we need to straighten our hair. We do it in five minutes, but the hair straightener we want to take with us is hot. So, what do we do then?

The hot problem for female passengers. How to avoid it?

How can a hair straightener at a temperature close to 392°F be safely packed? TikTok Kristen Black answered this question in one of her videos. She shared her tried-and-true hack, which will be useful for many users.

"Use an oven mitt," she wrote in the description under the video.

Kristen's idea gained recognition among internet users. Instead of waiting for the straightener to cool down, the influencer wrapped the hot device in an oven mitt and then secured it with the cord. "Genius!" users commented.
