I currently have microfiber ones and they never seem to wick much moisture out of my hair.  I squeeze excess water out after I wash and then wrap and my hair seems almost as wet after I take it off.  I think I got them at TJ maxx.

Maybe I'll try these-I didn't realize they were terry.  My hair is thick and fairly long so maybe the terry will work better.  Maybe the microfiber are better for finer and/or thinner hair?

They do make a microfiber version. I have not seen them offered at QVC, they are available at BB&B. Hope this helps. 


Yes, they do, but I have found they are NOT less damaging to the hair. I still experienced frizzies when using them. I have found that satin hair wraps work best for my wavy-curly hair; I no longer experience the frizz.

I would love these to be made in microfiber so they do less damage to my hair. There isn't a separate forum for this. Anyone find that terry towels cause frizz & breakage?

 


Yes...many out there. These are my worst ones, dislike the loop too tight on my head never used again.

I have many high end ones over the year and my fave is a newer one by Aquis...it's a waffle weave...it's diff then their regular microfiber type hair towel and same head wrap. It dries my fine hair as I do my things before styling my hair.

Here it is:https://aquis.com/products/waffle-luxe-hair-turban?variant=9115106179

I got a blue so if any hair color or stains get on it which ahsnt happened it will not show. I also bought 2 new hair towels soft and unbelievable as they dry your hair so fast w/o frizz! it's made that way..so it makes less frizz, it's by Deva Curl.

I don't keep curls in my hair but it's for anyone and mine gets frizzy from highlights and coloring..

I bought 3 at Dermstore...love them! like plush on one side and flatter on the other....love love love!

I got them for 30 off! many sales right now!!!

Wish Q sold such a  great head wrap/towel...by either company!

Cuts hair dry time...no frizz at all.

Here ya go Smiley Wink  http://www.sephora.com/devatowel-P404778?skuId=1784495&publisher_id=255779&sub_publisher=g&is_mobile...

 

Try one esp. on sale at many places.The Deva new large hair towel is the best as a towel to dry hair frizzless and it stays on your head and can be used as a head wrap.

My best! Mimi

I have tried the Turbie brand in the past, but they were never big enough to hold all my hair. I ordered one from Brookstone online and it's the Aquas brand. A lot bigger than the Turbie. 


agree! so small lousy cord/loop! yuk, love the new waffle weave aquis! and the towel too. Look at the Deva one....LOVE! I put my link above in a post to OP I just enjoy sharing my no more frizz post washing story with these 2 products I wish q would carry. ..Deva is new and so soft - it's a larger sized but easy to twist on the head..love them!
