My girlfriend had the same problem once her deadlift was getting past 225lbs.
I came up with this below, she hated me, but now has no grip issues.
day 1: hanging from pullup bar 3sets to failure.
day 2: farmers walks.
-split throughout the week (ie only two workouts per week).
this worked well, did it for a couple of months. Most people overtrain grip who are trying to improve it.
Just having heavy BBs in your hands too will increase your grip over time. RDLs/Bentover rows etc are great grip tools.
chalk is also a must if you have sweaty hands. straps are a last resort that i wouldn't use often.
