I don't have tons of long hair but I do have a lot of hair and Aquis Hair Towels get all that hair really dry. I own several of them and use them all the time. I don't know how it works but it works great. My hair is noticably dryer than when using a regular towel. Unlike terrycloth towels, Aquis towels are really thin and light; somewhere between the thickness of a light sweatshirt and a heavy t-shirt. The material is slightly stretchy and the weave is tight. The 18 x 36 towel is slightly too small for my taste. Maybe I have an abnormally large head or something (although I don't think I do) but it's just a bit too small as it just fits around my head without any extra fabric for twisting and tucking underneath in the back. Aquis Hair Towels are small and lightweight which makes them easy to travel with, take to the pool or beach, or for use as a gym towel.

This towel is a must for anyone with long hair, it seems to just pull the water out of your hair, making a lot less time using the blow dryer. It is a little small but that makes it easier to store and it does the job of a larger towel.

I do not know how I ever got my hair dry before this towel! I have very thin, fine hair and I do not like to use the blowdryer for long periods of time as my hair gets frizzy and I get unmanageble fly aways. If you have thin fine hair I am sure you understand perfectly! The great thing about this towel is that I can use it to pre-dry my hair before I have to use the hair dryer. I always use it as soon as I get out of the shower and am getting dressed. When it is time to actually blow dry my hair it is already on its way to being dry thanks to this super absorbent towel! It washes and dries very well and so far has been very durable for me. I am actually thinking of getting some for gifts for my family this year since they all have thin hair like mine! wonderful inventive product! The only negative is that it is sort of pricey but I think you get what you pay for because it is durable. It has lasted a year already and is still in great shape.

Wow, just wow. I am simply amazed at how super absorbent, durable, and great the Aquis Super Absorbent Towel is. Obviously, like the name says, it was extremely absorbant during my use and it had soaked up any excess water with ease. In addition, it had air dried pretty quickly, it was simply lightweight, and again, like I said, it's long-lasting. So for sure, it'll last you for a few years and you'll be satisfied. One thing that I'm extremely happy about is that if I leave it to sit and come back to it in less than 30 minutes, it's already dried and ready for me to use. However, I did have 3 things that I didn't like about it. For one, it's really expensive and not that widely known. Personally, I would like to see this in major retailers and have the price reduced to make it more affordable. Plus, it's a little bit small and when you take it out of the drier, it's really staticy considering my living conditions and the air. Overall, I would recommend this.

My sister gave me her old Aquis hair towel back when I was in high school and I STILL use it! I am not sure why she decided to give up this precious towel, but I'm glad she did because it really cuts back on my morning prep routine! I like to wrap my hair turban-style before I step out of the shower and by the time I'm done putting my makeup on and getting dressed my hair is mostly dry and ready for minimal time with the blowdryer. That's got to be better than blasting your hair for a longer period of time under all that super hot air. Not only does it dry my hair quickly, it dries even faster once I hang it up to dry! Some people might wonder what the necessity of a separate hair towel is when you can just use a normal bath towel. In addition to the reasons I already mentioned before, it's a lot easier to use than a typical bath towel - especially if you are a turban-wrapper like me. It's lighter than wrapping your head with a full-size bath towel and stays put until you're ready to unwrap! It's also a lot easier to fit your towel-rwapped head through the neck of your shirts, blouses, and sweaters. My mom actually recently bought me a differnt brand turban-style towel wrap and have to say it doesn't even come close to my Aquis hair towel. The other brand doesn't absorb as much as the Aquis and I find the turban-style wrap doesn't wrap around my head as securely as my Aquis towel. I end up having to rewrap my head a few times before I'm ready to dry and style my hair with the other brand. I plan on buying another Aquis hair towel soon so I don't have to wash them as frequently. But they sure do LAST!

i have a whole head of thick hair that is very thick and hard for me to dry when it gets wet. sometimes it is wet after i go swimming or it can be after i take a shower. i got this towel after i found that a conventional bath towel just was not doing what i needed to be done in order to dry my hair very fast when it got wet and i wanted it dry. i bought the Aquis towel and i am very glad that i did. it is very absorbent and i have noticed that it takes me a much shorter time to dry my hair when it is wet. the towel also has a very good drying time that i like. it dries in the air in a very short period of time after i have used it on my very wet hair. i wish it came in a variety of colors because sometimes i like to personalize my items. the towel is a bit on the expensive side but it is worth it for me because it means that i have to spend less time drying my hair in the bathroom and use less of my hair dryer too.

I don't know what I would do without the Aquis Super Absorbent Towel!  It is such a wonderful product!  I have very long hair as I am getting ready to donate it, so to minimize damage, I don't really like to blowdry it very often.  But sopping wet hair dripping down my back is really  not very appealing, especially in the hot summer.  So the Aquis towel comes in very handy.  It is a perfect size for wrapping my hair.  I secure it with a clip on top of my head and go about my business of getting dressed, makeup on, breakfast made, various other morning tasks.  Then I unclip it and my hair is much dryer.  Obviously it isn't completely dry, that would be crazy, but if I could find a product that did that...  Anyway, it does a great job of getting my hair partially to mostly dry all without much effort on my part and without the damaging heat of the blowdryer.  That is a fantastic product in my book!

I bought one of these because my hair is fine, but thick and it takes it a long time to dry. This towel really didn't absorb any better than a big ole fluffy terry cloth towel. The size makes it odd to wrap around your head. I can get it around my hair, but then it doesn't want to stay. This can be annoying if you are used to wrapping your hair up after a shower to then brush your teeth or put on moisturizer or whatever. When you take it out of your hair it just seems matted down, but without taking any more water away than a much cheaper regular towel. It also seemed to make the static worse in my hair, which actually extends styling time. I've also found that these towels do not wash up as well as others. They are thinner to begin with, but after a few washings they will thin out even more which will lead to holes and a really ugly looking towel after a while. I am sorry I wasted my money on this towel when my regular ones worked just as well, if not better.

The Aquis Super-Absorbent Towel is great. I have two and I love them. I use the one for my hair everyday. I have a bath towel as well, but I usually only use that for trips. The one for my hair really cuts down on my hair drying time. I have heard some people say that it sucks too much moisture out of their hair, but this has never been a problem for me. I usually blow dry my hair within 10-15 minutes of getting out of the shower, at the most, and my hair is still wet enough to style any way that I like. I bought the bath towel for a week-long bicycle trip that I took. It sucked the moisture right off of me, which is exactly what I wanted, and then the towel itself completely dried within a couple of hours. I do not, however, use the bath towel everyday because it is not quite as soft as I like for everyday use and on a day-to-day basis I like to have a bit of moisture left on me that can be sealed in with my lotion. But for trip where you need to bring your own towel and it should dry quickly, this is perfect. I recommend them to everyone, and I think they are especially good for camping, backpacking, and times when you are in a rush.

This product is a God send.  Since I have long hair that is half way down my back, I have to wrap my hair after a shower, or my clothes will be soaking wet when I get dressed.  I do not use a hair dryer, as I prefer it to air dry.  When I get out of the shower, the first thing I grab is my Aquis towel to wrap my hair.  The material is sort of nubby so it is easy to wrap and go.  If I try to wrap my hair in a regular towel, it is constantly coming loose and falling off.  This towel stays put, until you remove it.  And in the time it takes to get dressed, the towel has absorbed most of the excess moisture from my hair. I do not know what the manufacturers did to make this towel special, but whatever it is, it sure works wonders.  If I were to use a regular towel to wrap my hair after a shower, it would take hours for the towel to air dry.  The Aquis hair towel dries quickly, and can be put away in a cabinet for the next use.  I am always amazed at how quickly it dries.  The company also makes turbans, sport towels, body towels, robes, wraps, slippers and pet towels. Every super absorbent Aquis towel is made from a micro fiber material, using an ingenius innovation that instantly soaks up water on contact.  The towels are light weight, compact and durable. Again, I would be lost without my Aquis hair towel, and I would recommend it to everyone, no matter who you are.
