Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.

RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Just realised you're meant to pat dry your hair after showering... (lemmy.world)

Made a massive difference when I started pat drying my hair, it became more softer and smoother instead of roughly and vigorously rub drying my hair, making my hair dry... I feel like this should be common sense but apparently not to me since I found out about this just recently 😅

roughly and vigorously rub drying my hair

my male-radar is going off strong here.

As a woman, I wrap my long wet hair in a towel and let it dry like that. Or in the summer I just go outside & play & my hair is soon dry.

I'm a woman with long hair, and the texture of my hair got infinitely better when I stopped wrapping it in a towel. I just squeegee it and then pat it very gently so it's not dripping, then let it totally air dry. My hair is so soft now, no frizz.

That's good advice. My hair is indeed frizzy with my current method🤭 I will try to put more effort into it like you suggest for better results.

I hope it works for you! And to be honest, it feels like less effort because all you're doing is basically just leaving it alone 😆
