Summary: Not bad!
Comment: I bought this because I can't stand how much time I waste every day drying my hair. I have long thick hair, takes at least 20 minutes to blow dry. I think this towel cuts off 5 minutes, so, not a "miracle" but for a person like me who is rushing in the morning, every 5 minutes helps!

I noticed that lots of people thought the towel was too small - I think it is fine, just enough to make a tight turban. A little expensive but I am satisfied that it is worth it.

Summary: Not what I expected
Comment: I had an old Garden Botanica hair-drying towel from eons ago that finally disintegrated so I searched high and low for a replacement and chose this one. It's microfiber whereas my other one was cotton, so it's taking some getting used to. If I leave on too long, my short hair is TOTALLY dry, so it works really really well. Feels a little weird and doesn't stay wrapped on my head very well either, but other than that, it does the job. But I miss my old one :(

Summary: Definitely worth every penny!
Comment: Funny because I am the type who always hesitated spending $15 for a Ralph Lauren towel, but have spent so much more for THIS towel and think it's definitely worth every penny. I have long, thick hair and this towel does the trick. I can have my hair wrapped around for as little as 5 minutes and by the time I take the towel off, my hair is no longer dripping or soaked. It's awesome!!! I'm very close to buying another one. :)

Summary: Pretty good for long hair.
Comment: Update: I loved this towel so much but I was getting frustrated at the fact that I couldn't fit my very long hair into it. I purchased another one and stitched them together. I'm sure I could have found another larger towel by the same people but I really liked the Hair Towel. Now it definitely accomodates my very very long hair! :)

I just received my Aquis Microfiber Hair Towel and have hair that is about 22 inches long. (mid to lower back length). I've used the towel a few times at this point, and I do really like it's drying capacity. When I am in the shower, I wrap my hair up (turban style) and then finish up my last few minutes of the shower. By the time I get out, dry off and then move on to my hair, all residual drippiness is gone with this towel. My hair gets "crimped" easily by things like barrettes, ponytail holders and hair clips. But this wasn't so dry that I suffered from any odd bends or waves from it. It was left slightly damp and workable.

The one thing that I would wish for (and why it did not get 5 stars) was for a bit more length. When my hair is wet it wraps up almost 100% and I can tuck the back in fairly easily. If you wrap carefully you can manage to wrap around pretty long hair. One time the tucked-in end popped loose, though. Because my hair already had a lot of the mosture taken out, it was impossible to get it back wrapped and tucked again. A bit of a double-edged sword, there. It obviously was doing a great job of drying but made it impossible to re-wrap when it popped loose.

I never blow dry my hair so I'm happy to note that this is the first time in years that I've gone to work without a wet spot on the back of my shirt from the drip spots I can never seem to ditch with a regular towel.

Is it worth the money? Probably, although I'd give that a definitive "yes" if it were a bit larger.

Summary: The best towel ever
Comment: Aquis Microfiber Hair Towel - 19 x 39 inches
I have long thick hair which takes ages to towel dry and blow dry. I really needed something to get me out of the house quicker so after some misgivings about the price for a single towel, I decided to give it a try. Am I glad I did because this is one product that lives up to the hype.
The towel twists easily into a turban - I wrapped it around soaking wet hair and it felt amazingly light and comfortable. I didn't have to keep rubbing my hair and when I took the towel off a minute or two later it was nearly dry. I didn't have to blow dry my hair for ages either and it feels healthier already.
If you have short or fine hair you may not get the real benefit. For any other hair type, I'd say go for it. It'll be a worthwhile investment.
