Why it worked
The video uses a relatable, humorous 'girl math' style trend to turn a mundane gym visit into a lifestyle hack, which encourages high engagement through comments and shares.
Summary
The creator uses her gym membership to access hair styling tools at the gym to get ready for a night out. She documents the process of entering the gym and using the straightener in the gym's mirror.

Product placement
One Playground (a gym chain) appears as the location and the brand on the access card; it ACTS as the facility providing the hair styling tools used by the creator. Removing the brand would not change the video's content as it is a location-based vlog.
