First, a shocking fact: rubbing your hair vigorously with a towel is actually a betrayal of your own scalp. You think you’re helping, but you’re just creating a tangled, frizzy mess that hates you. That aggressive back-and-forth motion is like taking a cheese grater to your hair cuticles.
Surprisingly, your hair is strongest when it’s wet—so you’re not breaking it, you’re just unlocking a lifelong feud with static electricity. Stop punishing your poor strands. You wouldn’t dry a wet puppy by spinning it like a helicopter blade, so don’t do it to your head.
