A man has impressed TikTok users with his brilliantly simple hack for hiding his receding hairline.

TikTok user Kegs (@kegs97) posted the clip on his page yesterday with the caption: "How I hide my receding hairline!"

Since it was posted, the hack, which involves a pair of straighteners and some root spray, has been viewed over 3.2 million times, showing just how many people out there are looking for effective solutions to hide their receding hairlines.

He began the video by saying: "This is how I hide my fat receding hairline on a budget."

Watch Kegs' brilliant hack below: 

Kegs then goes on to demonstrate how he uses root spray to hide the gaps in his hairline before curling up his fringe with straighteners to hide it completely.

"After I shower, I quickly blow-dry it with a hairdryer. I then grab some dark brown root spray and spray over where the receding hairline is - this hides any gaps underneath the fringe and gives it a fuller, thicker look," he says.

"I then quickly curl up my fringe - my hair's naturally really straight, so this helps a lot.

Kegs then completes the look with styling gel and hairspray.

He continues: "I then grab some Got2B styling gel and rub it through my hair - this gives it texture and volume and puts it into place.

"Finally, I grab some Got2B hairspray, spraying it all over so that it stays in position.

"And voila! That's the finished product of how to hide a fat receding hairline."
