Hey there everyone!
Loving the new extension and have gotten a ton of compliments on them. I was just wondering though, if there are any tips on getting them dry quicker? I know that must sound silly but I have always had shorter, thinner hair that was maybe a 10-15min blowdry so with the longer hair I am having to break it up into a few sessions(my arms get tired lol). Normally this would not be an issue since I don't work outside the home and I can let it airdry for a bit but we are going to Disneyland in about 2weeks and we will have 5 people in our room(me, hubby, teenage son, teenage sons friend and nine yr old) and I don't want to hold everyone up when we are trying to get ready for the Park. I have a ConAir dryer that is 1875 watts and seems ok but would like to cut down some time on this if possible. I guess I could do a partial dry and then braid it or ponytail it if I had to but thought I would see if anyone had some tips. Thanks!
Hi! Not sure if this will help all that much. But my extensions have a bit of a wave. When I am in a hurry I just run the hair drier on the bonds and dry and style the area framing my face, and just let the rest air dry.
If I am wearing it straight I find it helps to section it off. With less hair to deal with it dries faster than trying to dry it all at once.
I also use a type of styling comb that allows me to clamp down on my hair and hold it straight while I blow it dry. That seems to speed it up a bit, too. I bought this tool at Sally's Beauty Supply. I just tried to go to their website to give more information, but it appears their server is down.
Unfortunately the longer drying time is the downside of having more hair on your head. I find if you use a really good ionic dryer, it dries a little faster. Also towel dry it very well first.
