PSA: for the lazy- aquis hair turban

[spitforspat]

So, I think I'm really late to the hair turban trend. Mostly because I thought it was BS. A towel is a towel!

I started using one (aquis brand) and it is amazing! It takes about 5 minutes to dry my hair afterward and it is so much less frizzy.

Then, when I wan to be lazy AND fancy, I put it up like this for an hour or so and it's curled!

I alway thought I'd be to lazy for nice hair.

link to where you purchased this?

Really? Maybe I will try that because now I use a towel which prompts DH to ask me if he can buy some bananas from me.

Yes - but it has to be the one with a button to hold it in place. I have this one: www.amazon.com/Aquis-Microfiber-Turban-Patented-Celadon/dp/B000AM82PI

I bought it at TJ Maxx for less than that, but it is a real game changer for me. Gets my hair much drier AND stays in place when I'm doing other things in the morning.

Yes- toepick is right, it must have the button!

I bought mine on super sale at a store called Bath Junkie.

Lucy- you're right. My hair is just shoulder length and fills it up pretty well.

I have longish hair - not as long as Lucy's - but it's thick, and I can shove it in there. Worst case is that it pulls back from your forehead a little.

My mil gave me one a few years ago, not that exact one, and I have never used it. We found it the other day in our missing socks bag and dh put it on dd to wear around. She loved the thing. I never figured out how to use it, but maybe I will give it a shot.

I bring mine with me when I travel. I'm that big of a dork.

I have a Turbie Twist and that works well. I have long and somewhat thick hair.

[toepick]

Turbie Twist does not have a button. I repeat, the button is the best feature of the Aquis!

My button fell off

LOL at this review:

I love Aquis products but this hair turban is my least favorite so far.
It absorbs great as do all their towels but apparently my head is too
damn big. Its a real stretch to get the button into the awkward loop to
secure it. The sides are also stretchy which I don't care for.I have
several other style turbans that I prefer. I'm sure this would be great
for women with less hair or a smaller head.Ok, now you're picturing me
as Medusa or some cartoon head person. Just stop it.

I have long hair, now down to the middle of my back, and it is thick and the turban works on me. I love it.

I need more info on how you get the curls, please.

Here's a tutorial on the headband curls. If I leave mine in overnight I look like Shirley temple- so I usually just do it for an hr or so.
