My hair is thick and it takes a long time to dry, but that's okay. I always let it air dry. When I get out of the shower, I take a towel and gently squeeze out the excess water. Then I take a wide tooth comb (one of those seamless detangling combs) and gently comb through it. After that, I leave it alone until the next morning.
I have to blow dry mine. If I don't it just gets in a right mess leaving it to dry naturally. I have such thick hair and it ends up all curly....at least with blow drying it calms down the curls and then I can straighten it straight away
It depends on what I want my hair to do that day.
If I'm not leaving the house, I'll towel dry, then airdry.
If I'm going somewhere, towel, then blowdry.
i usually towel dry it a little and then let the rest air dry. I'll only blow dry it if I'm styling it after, otherwise it takes too long and I'm really impatient lol. my hair is a wreck and I try not to use too much heat on it :<
I air dry, my hair is pretty dry and damaged so I would rather not use more heat than necessary on it. Nor do I wanna cause more breakage by rubbing it haha. Even when it was healthy I preferred air drying it though because blow drying it always felt like it takes ages of doing nothing but blowing air onto my hair. It does take forever(5 hours +, rip) , so I have to 'plan' when to shower so I'm sure that I won't go to bed with wet hair, or have to go out with it.
