Why curly girls should give up the towel
The other day I was reading my local message board on The Nest and came across a topic on curly hair. Thinking I might be able to give some advice I opened the post. I did have a few things to offer, but learned something in the process. Curly haired girls shouldn't use a regular terrycloth towel to dry their hair because it causes the frizz. So what should they use instead? A T-shirt! Who knew? Being the hair girl that I am I took to the interwebz and found a few things I wanted to share, like this Plop method of drying I found on naturallycurly.com. You can use either a T-shirt or a microfiber towel. Apply your product first then follow the instructions below.

Okay, I gave this a go (but it took me awhile to find the opportunity because I rarely wash my hair :) and I actually think the t-shirt was better. I'm going to try it once more to eliminate the possibility of a coincidence or the placebo effect but I felt like my hair was less frizzy. The added bonus is that my husband was happy that I wore my hair curly (the natural kind - not the curling iron kind) for the first time in months :)
ReplyDeleteI'm trying this right now! So far, I'm happy with the results - I wrapped my hair up in a tee, and when I took it down, I definitely noticed less frizz. I'm letting it air dry as I type. :)
ReplyDeleteThis I gotta try!
