Hi all thanks for replying. I have decided NOT to blowdry on a daily basis, even if it would be for 5-10 minutes. My hair is growing and doing just fine without the excess heat. I don't want to mess things up now since I've come such a long way with the health of my hair. I guess if it ain't broke, don't fix it!

Bubble hair is not a disease, nor is it a genetic defect. It is caused by any sort of mistreatment, and eliminating that mistreatment can minimize breakage.
Just looking for a few good hair slaves - is that too much to ask?

Hello all. This is my first post and a very nice site!
Anyway,I was wondering if there is anyone here that wash their hair or condition wash daily, and use a blowdryer for about 5-10 minutes so that the hair isn't soaking wet? I was wondering because I condition wash daily and I do enjoy it but I hate dripping wet hair down my back. So for the past 3 days after I condition wash, I have used my blowdryer. I do NOT dry until my hair is bone dry, it is still damp, just not dripping/soaking. Would this be too damaging to continue on a daily basis? Thanks in advance. Oh, I almost forgot, my hair is relaxed. Thanks!
Welcome Iluvlonghare! I know exactly what you mean. I hate dripping hair also but I would not blow dry everyday...too damaging. If you have to blow dry try a cool setting. I would suggest you try plopping though. It should eliminate drippies. This link should explain how to do it. http://www.motowngirl.com/plopping.htm

I usually wrap my hair in a dry towel for about five minutes, then take it down, comb it, and put it up for another five minutes in a fresh towel. It's barely damp at that point.

Even 5-10 minutes of heat is a lot if used EVERYDAY. I hand wring water from my hair, use a towel lightly to blot and then pull back in a bun to dry. Once the bun is wrapped, I don't have any dripping water.

After I get finish washing, I wring the hair out with my hands, I towel dry ( scrunch in sections) then place a COTTON HeadWrap or Cotton cloth around my head for about 5 to 10 minutes. Cotton absorbs moisture and it usually absorbs the excess water droplets. After that place any products, if need be.
Personally, I wouldn't do it. After I wring my hair out with my hands its usually damp and not dripping anymore. You can try using the cold shot on your dryer if you have one.
