wherein the holder further comprises a second clamp; and
wherein the clamps are each located toward opposite longitudinal ends of the clip.
2. The holder of claim 1 , wherein the clip is generally longitudinal.
3. The holder of claim 1 , wherein the clip is removably supportable on the clamp.
4. The holder of claim 1 , wherein the clip includes an arm that is configured to open to an opened state and close to a closed state, such that in the closed state the hair addition is holdable in the clip.
5. The holder of claim 1 , wherein the clamp includes a vertical bar that is configured to be secured to the clip.
6. The holder of claim 1 , wherein the fixed structure is a table.
7. The holder of claim 5 , wherein the clip is vertically adjustable along the vertical bar.
8. A drying method for drying a hair addition having multiple strands of hair, the method comprising:
elevatingly supporting one end of the hair addition via a support;
applying air to the hair addition for drying the hair addition such that the strands are prevented from tangling; wherein
the method includes the use of a holder for supporting the hair addition, the holder comprising:
a clamp configured to clamp onto a fixed structure;
a clip configured to hold the hair addition while the hair addition is handled;
wherein the holder further comprises a second clamp; and
wherein the clamps are each located toward opposite longitudinal ends of the clip.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the air is diffused via a diffuser.
10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the method further comprises, manually engaging the hair addition while the air is applied to the hair addition.
11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the method further comprises, hanging the hair addition from the support.

15. A drying system for drying a hair addition having multiple strands of hair, the system comprising:
a dryer defining an internal drying chamber;
an internal support assembly configured to support the hair addition in the internal drying chamber as a supported hair addition;
an air flow system configured to provide flowing air to the supported hair addition for drying the hair addition; wherein
the internal support assembly includes a holder for supporting the hair addition, the holder comprising:
a clamp configured to clamp onto a fixed structure;
a clip configured to hold the hair addition while the hair addition is handled;
wherein the holder further comprises a second clamp; and
wherein the clamps are each located toward opposite longitudinal ends of the clip.
16. The drying system of claim 15 , wherein the air flow system includes an air flow tube configured to direct air to the supported hair addition.
17. The drying system of claim 15 , wherein the drying system further comprises a diffuser that is configured to diffuse the air before the supported hair addition is subjected to the air.
