If you're concerned about the damage heat may be causing to your hair or simply want to spend a little less time fussing with your hair after washing, you might want to consider letting your hair air dry.
Leaving your hair to dry naturally saves your locks from excessive heat damage and also allows you avoid spending time attempting to replicate the results of a curly-blow dry at home.
If you have frizzy or very limp hair, the thought of letting your hair dry on its own can be a little daunting. Where using a hairdryer makes it easy to achieve a smooth, sleek finish, air drying is known to leave your hair frizzy and a bit of a mess.
