what a waste,

i have heard of old t-shirts drying, there's a huge following online

I use an old soft t-shirt to dry my hair. I have definitely found that it cuts down on the frizz compared to drying my hair with a towel.

That sounds horribly wasteful. I read about a method of drying frizz-prone hair by tying it up in a t-shirt turban, but mine seems to be too long to do so.

No

I've heard of that before... but also that they hang the towels up to dry after use rather than using new ones every time.

I only use an old tshirt to dry my curly hair, it does wonders! After the shower i squeeze out as much as i can and throw it in a ponytail so its not dripping everywhere as i get to my room lol then i comb it with a wide tooth comb, flip my head over and start scrunching with the tshirt until the water doesnt soak through any longer. It helps create more defined curls and leaves them less frizzy. then put in whatever product you use and flip back up and your done

No, that seems so wasteful! :[

I have curly hair and I heard this tip a few months ago from my hairdresser. I tried it a few times, but the difference in frizz really wasn't worth the guilt of wasting of paper towels. I've since switched to using a microfiber towel, which really does help a lot.

I agree -- how wasteful.

Way too wasteful. I use an old cotton teeshirt though, it's amazing.

I use my boyfriend's old t-shirts. It takes out just the right amount of water for my thirsty locks. Also you won't get split ends using a cotton t shirt.

I dry with a t-shirt, apply product, and then use a microfibre turban on my head for 20 min. My hair is free of frizz and defined.

I never heard of doing this but it's a great idea. I hate when I opt to let my hair dry naturally and I get frizzy waves. Hopefully now it will cut down on the frizz but instead of paper towels im def opting for an old cotton T.

wouldn't that leave the paper towel fuzzies in your hair? hmm

I use the old t-shirt method for my curly hair and it works really well. I squeeze out excess water in the shower, apply John Frieda anti-frizz serum and some gel while its still pretty wet, then wrap it turban-style in the t-shirt for about 15 minutes. I can then air dry it or diffuse it and it is really soft and best of all, frizz-free!

I use a microfiber towel on my curly hair and it works wonders! The result is less frizz and more defined curls. I love it so much that I always travel with my hair towel now.

what's wrong with leaving you hair alone? i don't dry it with anything.

OMG! I thought I was the only crazy person using paper towel to dry my hair -- it definitely cuts the drying time drastically, especially long hair. Afterward, I woul air dry the used towels for cleaning the house. Ok, just don't use them to dry your dishes

I would imagine how well the microfiber towel works!

Thanks for sharing.

Alytta- so you just hop out the shower with dripping wet hair and leave it like that?
