Review on Aquis - Original Lisse (Smooth Fabric) Body Towel, High Absorbency & Quick-Drying Microfiber Towel, Dark Grey (29 x 55 Inches) by Melisa Byers

I don't usually buy expensive towels but this was a gift. After reading all the reviews I was excited to use it - I have thick, curly hair that is very long, about mid-back, and takes a long time to dry. This towel is definitely beautiful, thin and soft - much softer than I expected after using my mom's stuff years ago when I was still living at home. And it absorbs much better than a regular bath towel. Where I used to get out of the shower, style my hair, put my makeup on, and then take off the towel to dry my hair before getting dressed, this towel is thin enough to get dressed because it doesn't stretch my necklines Tops too much. When I pull my hair out it comes out drier than a regular towel, although I still need to blow dry it a bit to get it dry enough to go outside. does a lot for my curls - they're a bit frizzy since using this towel, which I can fix with a little hair serum, but that's something I haven't had to do with other towels and a diffuser. Does this product save my time? Yes. Is it a miracle product? no I love it and will continue to use it, but I doubt I'll buy another one. Also a word of caution if you color your hair - the first day I used mine was three days and two shampoos after the color session and it was still sucking some of the color out of my hair so my white towel is now colored red . I don't really care because I don't care what the towel looks like but just something to watch out for if you are a dyer, use regular towels for a few shampoos after dyeing. And if your hair is well below your shoulders, you need a big one - I can't imagine a smaller one being big enough to cover all my hair.
