How do you dry

Do you air dry or blow dry your dreads

 

Usually air dry. But I will blow dry if I'm in somewhat of a rush but that can take an hour and is kinda unreliable because it doesn't dry them inside the core of the dread and the wetness seeps to the outside leaving them a bit damp.

Edit

Oh yeah I do what bubble does. Wring em out and wrap em up in a towel for an hour or so

 

Rub them with a towel when I get out of the shower to get as much out with a towel as i can, then wrap them in the towel.
Then I use a hair dryer to kinda blow into the towel of dreads, so it gets damn hot in there for a few mins, normally blow dry and then head bang and shake my head for a few mins to get out as much of the remaining water as I can. After that I might blow dry em again when I can during the day, I find it impossible to get them really dry without alot of time, so just blast em with a blow dryer when I can.

 

Towel dry till they don't drip, then air dry ^^

 

I do this

 

I am a ditz.

I always air dry them but sometimes even after leaving a towel and squeezing water would drip onto my back so I was in the shower/bath and decided to head bang to get the water out but I swung my head too fast too low and whacked my forehead on the tub. Hurt like a bitch and I had this huge welt for a day.

So now I squeeze, and lightly blow dry then leave the rest to air dry.

 

I throw some music on (the band in my sig lately) and headbang the fuck out of them until they are hardly wet anymore.

Then they air dry... Sometimes I'll blowdry them if the wet feeling starts pissing me off.

with a blow torch!

 

^^^ This

 

Towel dry then blow dry. Usually takes a few blows (uh huh huh) over the course of an hour to get to dry.

Air dry in the summer when there's no risk of icicles or pneumonia.

 

Dragonvine style

 

I towel dry, sling them against the towel after I hang it across the shower curtain rod, which gets out most of the water and then let them air dry usually (usually only takes about 20 to 30 mins). If I'm about to go to bed or am in any kind of rush, I'll blow dry them.

 

Hahah, that's the best thing ever!

And I'm not making fun of you either, I'm a total klutz, and i'm actually surprised I haven't done this yet.

 

I fully agree walking outside with wet dreads is a no go.

 

same as most:towel than leave them. but I hateeee wet dreads. mine take sofackinglong to dry so I wash as little as possible
