Sometimes. My hair is pretty short, but I usually let it air dry. If I’m going to bed straight after showering, I’ll use the hair dryer. Mostly because my hair has some blue dye in it that I don’t want bleeding on my pillow.
Nope. I usually fall asleep with a towel on my head. Remove it in the middle of the night and wake up in the morning with still wet hair. Then I have to hit it with the blow dryer in the morning. To dry it straight after a shower would take 20-30 minutes and I’d rather be sleeping.
@DonberKon@remo28 never heard of that and looked it up. Most of the time I go to bed with wet hair and it hasn’t been a problem. My hair is past my tailbone at the moment. Maybe it doesn’t affect all hair types?
@DonberKon@remo28@RiotDemon When I had hair past my butt I’d often leave it braided while wet. It could be wet for hours and hours as we’d often dump water on our heads to cool off. Never an issue.
@Kidsandliz@remo28@RiotDemon it’s a long term thing like sun exposure or friction, but perhaps not as severe. It’s still better for your hair to not be soaked for long periods.
@remo28@RiotDemon it affects all hair types, but the severity may vary. What also may vary is the owner’s standard of hair quality. If you say it’s fine, that’s fine.
My curly locks haven’t felt the heat from a blow dryer since I was about 25 years old! Which was also the same time I started appreciating my God given, hard to manage, thick, (yet fine) super curly bush of wildness! Well, to be honest, it was my unwillingness to accept my curls that made it SO unmanageable. Once I decided to stop fighting with the curls and stopped trying to straighten them my suffering was over! Acceptance is such a wonderful thing! …and so wasn’t the development of gel hair products to assist!
I usually shower in the morning, so in winter, I’ll sometimes break out the blow dryer for a minute, but if it’s above freezing, I just pull a hat down over my wet curls. The rest of the year, I let it air dry because I have thick hair and blow drying takes forever.
I just had 7 inches cut off cuz I’m tired of how long it takes to dry and flat iron. Having a shitty back makes my arms hurt if they’re over my head to long. My husband was not happy!
in the late 70’s I lived in Colorado and had a motorcycle. It was a 400cc blow dryer for my hair on the way to work at Roman Village Pizza (Boulder) since CO had no helmet laws.
Now I no longer have either (motorcycle or enough hair)
Sigh… sure miss that.
Depends on where the hair is located.
@yakkoTDI Damn-all the good replies are taken.
I’m a guy with shorter hair. I dry my hair.
Did you mean with a towel (of course!) or with an electric hair dryer (no way!).

I don’t dry my hair. I leave it up to evaporation. Let that mfer do all of the work.
@uebergod so your answer would be “nope”
/giphy what hair?
@haydesigner I use sunblock on my scalp. Why would I need to worry about drying my hair?

@remo28 you give your hair hygral fatigue if you let it stay wet all night. It’s bad for your hair (if it’s long)

I air dry it after letting it sit in a towel for a little while.
I didn’t get super long hair by blow drying it. I would of chopped it off if I had to do that every time.
The older I get, the more gravity moves my hair down. And yes, I do dry my hairy Hobbit feet.
It gets some towel time while I apply my face stuff, then it’s air dry after that. If I’m in a rush, I’ll use the dryer, but that’s rare.

I towel off, so that water isn’t running down my face. But it air drys for the most part.

No, I typically dry my hair before
I save time by taking my towel into the shower and drying it whilst I wash it.
Protip:. Don’t take your hairdryer into the shower with you. Or your toaster. Or your hairdresser.
@OnionSoup
my wife cuts my hair, so I *do take my hairdresser into the shower

@LeonRobinson I don’t want to.
