Most Helpful Positive Review So lightweight and comfortable! Whenever I wash my hair, I would usually have a large body towel wrapped around my head while I get ready. It can get quite heavy and annoying while I apply on make up. But with this towel, it's so lightweight that sometimes I forget it's even there. I can get ready comfortably without worrying too much about the towel getting in the way. I love that it's also small and travel friendly!
Most Helpful Critical Review Poor product, smells awful and pills terribly Don't waste your money. Poor quality product that makes hair worse. I was skeptical about the rave reviews when I purchased this product, and given the high price tag thought it was too good to be true, it is. I've had car shammies that are better. Poor quality product, terrible static, pills terribly after 1 wash. I used it 3 or 4 times and hung it on a towel bar above an air conditioning vent to ensure it dried quickly, but it stinks terribly after just a few uses. I washed it several times and the smell won't come out no matter how scented the detergent is I use. The pilling is so bad after a few washes it's not longer smooth, but now rougher on my hair than a standard bath towel. It's basically plastic so creates terrible static in my fine hair. It's light weight, and will suck all the moisture out of your hair quickly, but don't leave it on for more than a few minutes or it will dry your hair out terribly and make it frizzy.

Much less frizz in my frizzy hair
Not worth it 1

Made my hair frizzy and I just didn't feel like it did anything special.

This is the only towel I use on my hair. It goes on every trip with me. I have had short hair and very long hair. It handles it all. Cuts drying time by more than half.
I would not recommend this product; large overhaul needed 1
Sophie from San Diego, CA
I purchased this product in-store last year. I have been using it but not as often as I would like due to the upkeep this towel needs. I have long thick hair. At first, I washed the product before I used it. The pilling was obvious even tho I used a gentle cycle. I hung it out to dry and it absorbs all the smells in your room. I'm thinking its due to the fabric. I decided to put it in the dryer. No biggie. Once it was dry, I used it after my shower to get ready for work. The pro was that I was able to just wrap all my thick air and do my make up. After each use, you must hang to dry it. It really stinks after a day of drying. It is not anti-bacterial towel so it will absorb and become a stinky wet rag if you don't place it in the dryer after using it; but that is just SO ridiculous to do after every shower. Not to mention that it takes forever for this thing to hang dry. I work 12 hour shifts, 3 days straight and I hate for things to smell. It's very inconvenient after the first use. I use vinegar to take the stink off when I wash it. It is not a very good product at all. It needs a large product overhaul like add an antimicrobial material to diminish the stink after a day or two of hang-drying it.
A definite must, especially for longer hair 5
Nona Y from WI
My sister and I love this towel which is why I purchased another one. Regular bath towels rough-ride your hair which is why it is important to use something that will treat your precious strands with care. A definite for those who need a more gentle approach to their hair (ex: I have fine hair which splits/frizzies easily).
Dries hair super fast 5
Louisa from Palm Springs, CA
I neeeever write reviews but this thing is too good not to. I'm Mexican/Italian. Long thick hair and I love showering at night. My mom gets on my case about sleeping with wet hair so I wanted to make an effort to dry it before bed (mainly for her) and so I got this towel thinking it was overpriced but the reviews had me sold and I thought I'd give it a shot. And let me tell ya, I might have to get another just because the colors are so dang pretty. I put my hair in this right after the shower and let it sit on my head for like 20 minutes, sometimes less. And I immediately feel a difference in how much water the towel has soaked and how much drier my hair feels. Love love love it
Nice, but very expensive. 4
Lauren from Madison, Wisconsin
This towel is very nice, and large enough for long thick hair like mine, which was kind of shocking. It's extremely lightweight so sometimes my hair knocks it loose but I'm getting the hang of it. Way less tugging than a bath towel is, so I'm sure it helps with breakage. My only real con is how pricey it is for a small towel. There was no price tag at Ulta so I just checked out without knowing, figuring at most it would be $15... I was shocked when my total was so high, to figure out the towel was the culprit. Oh well. Seems as though half the cost is in the very nice packaging.
Not Worth the Money 2
Twice II from ATL
As a towel-turban goes, this is OK. It functions adequately as a substitute for using a regular towel to wrap around you hair, but that's all it does. It does not help dry my hair faster than a towel or letting my hair dry uncovered.

Best hair towel 5
Aly from Centreville Virginia
This towel dries my hair so much better than your average towel. Very impressed
This towel is a great investment for your hair! 5
Hannah from Saint Joseph, MO
I have used this towel for months now, and it is so convenient! I love that it is the perfect size for my head (no more big heavy towel falling off), and it is also so much better for my hair! My hair dries very fast, and I've noticed less frizz.
Great product 5
Chrissy from Chicago, IL
I love this hair turban. Prior to using it, I hated how my hair would drip before it got dry. Using a normal towel to dry it causes a lot of breakage, and I had been told not to put my hair up in a turban with a normal towel. I felt like I could never get my back totally dry right after the shower, and it was actually giving me dry skin/ making my back itch.
This turban is definitely a game-changer. It's very easy to use- I was worried it was going to be over-engineered but it's SO simple. It really stays out too, which is important. No loose hairs falling out. My hair dries faster, and I don't have to deal with the annoying drips. I'm so happy I bought it!
A complete game changer 5
MellyP from Staten Island, NY
I absolutely love this hair towel! It has been a complete game changer! I have very long (sits at my lower back) full hair and this towel has cut my drying time significantly. I am done drying and styling my hair in 30 minutes compared to the hour and 15-30 min before. I will not Dry my hair any other way now.
I Absolutely Love this Awesome Hair Towel! 5
Nadia from Daly City, Ca
I can't say enough about how much I love this hair towel! I have curly hair which takes forever to dry.. not with this towel. I love that it dries my hair fast without sucking all the moisture out of it. It's ultra soft and gentle on my hair too. I love the sleek look. Color is a grayish/lavender. Comes in a plastic resealable bag. This is a must have.. < 3
Love this towel!! 5
Ali from Waukee, IA
This towel is really great! I saw it as an add on item for my Winter Fab Fit Fun box and I decided to get it because of the great deal in price and I was looking for something to help my hair stop from breaking and frizzing. I'm so happy that I did! My hair dries super fast with this towel and it feels so soft that I know it's not breaking my hair like a normal towel. I would 100% recommend this towel!
Best Hair Towel HANDS DOWN 5
KloClo77 from Arlington, VA
I use this towel every time I wash my hair and have not used my old towel since. My number one favorite thing is how lightweight the towel is-- it is basically a cloud! As someone with long hair, drying time could be super long and honestly, air drying just isn't for me (unless it's the summer), but this towel cuts my drying time down (note: if you go straight from shower to blow dry, you may not notice as big of a cut down in dry time). So here is how I use it: I wrap my wet hair into this awesome cloud of a towel. I then go about picking out my outfits and I start doing my eye and lip makeup. Then, I unwrap my hair from the towel and do the quick blow dry. This towel pulls out a lot more of the water than a normal towel would in the same amount of time (yes, I tested-- it saved me a couple minutes each blow dry- less heat damage). So back to my favorite thing: the weight. The light weight allows you to go about your morning/night routine without feeling a neck strain or getting that "tilting towel" feel and puts a lot less strain on my thin hair. I was hesitant about the cost at first, but since testing it out, I have purchased one for a friend who was so thrilled and she really loves it. In addition, multiple friends have mentioned it is a great investment that they've found to be worth it! It really isn't like any other towel-- I am a total convert and do not hesitate recommending it.
Love this! 5
Gihan from Fremont, CA
My daughter gave this to me and I am loving it. I am in my 50s and I have really felt like it is preventing my hair from falling/thinning to the degree it was before. It also helps my hair dry so much faster, and I like that the towel itself dries really quickly once hung up to dry. My hair is very fine and also very curly and overall just feel like my hair is much healthier!
Holy Grail Hair Towel 5
Sarah from San Jose, CA
Definitely my holy grail hair towel - but it's a towel, so don't expect this is going to magically evaporate your split ends to silk or completely change the genetic structure of your hair. What it will do is dry your hair in half the time, reduce frizz, be super comfortable on your head, and look cute hanging in your bathroom (love the Cloud Berry color!)
PS: The orange packaging "hair-tie" was a nice touch, too.

Cuts my dry time in half. Love the design and how lightweight it is. Does not show wear after washing so it stays looking new, which is nice when it's hanging in your bathroom.
