I LOVE this towel! I purchased one for my daughter and one for myself a few months ago. We both have very thick hair that takes forever to dry. This towel just sucks the water right out of my hair. A huge time saver and a great help keeping the hair dryer damage to a minimum. The towel also dries quickly, preventing that mildew problem some people get in humid areas.
I plan on buying more of these towels to keep on hand to put in gift baskets along with some candles and bath goodies for quick gift giving.

My review of this product is that it performed exactly as it said it would. In response to Georgia Girl's review, I kind of think it's irresponsible to write 1 star reviews on products when you're unhappiness is not about the product. This towel is clearly 19X39 inches. There are 12 inches in a foot. That means it's about 3 feet long. How can one criticize it for being "too short" when the title clearly states how long it is? Also, if one is looking for a longer towel there is a body towel that is, as clearly stated, 29x55 inches.

As for the drying, the towel is very absorbant. However, if the towel is "too short" and you attempt to wrap lots of sopping wet hair up in it, you may be dissapointed. That's like sopping up a puddle with a sheet of bounty - it's all relative. Be smart, buy the size you need and you will be impressed with the amount of water it picks up. I'd also recommend the doggie dryer - It's become a staple in our lives like dog food and his leash. It goes just about everywhere the dog does now if the trip at all involves water!

My mother brought me back one of these from some trip she went on years and years ago. I thought it was the greatest thing ever! I haven't been able to find them again until now! (After about ten years, mine has had better days, but still works great!) I highly recommend this product. I sleep with mine on my long hair and wake up with gorgeous, frizz-free waves.

I used this type of towel (in basic white) for years while scuba diving. It was perfect -- small size -- dries quickly -- super-absorbant. After having kids, I started using the towel to dry and wrap my hair -- perfect for this as well. Then my kid decided to take my towel over, so I had to purchase more -- It is the perfect size to wrap a toddler below the arms after a bath. The kids love them.

I would like to point out that my original towel is at least 10 years old and going strong. The towels are pricey, but they last. Also, I bought mine when Amazon was running a sale, so you could wait patiently and get a good deal.

EXCELLENT! There is NO better product anywhere. In the art world they say 'form follows function'. Well, for this product the function gets a 100% superb rating. And the form? Well, no towel has ever known the qualities that this towel holds. I have never written a review on Amazon and when I saw that Amazin(hey, that's a prety good typo for Amazon, right?) I feel so passionate about this item that 1st I purchased one(I would have bought 5 but I don't like pink, and since this is the only color they are offering I'm taking one). Trust me, everythng they say @ the Aquis is true. You will feel like your hair is already dry just from towelling. And for exercising or the gym - any sports, it folds up so small, a normal towel would take up 5x's the space. In my experience, a terry cloth towel NEVER absorbs all the water after a bath.. THIS towel as it touches you - YOU BECOME COMPLETELY DRY. Hope you discover the joy and the simplification afforded your life once you've tried an Aquis. Don't delay, they go FAST!

Against my better financial judgement, I finally decided to spring for this doohickey based on the rave reviews both here and on the curly-hair-support websites. I had a feeling, even as I clicked the button to purchase it, that I was wasting my money. And that feeling turned out to be wrong.

Right out of the bag, even before it was washed, this thing was amazing. I have very curly hair that goes past my shoulders, and as you curly girls know, hair like that can be very temperamental if it's not treated just so. I use the dreadfully-named, but effective, Deva Curl No Poo shampoo and the Deva Curl One Condition. Then, the touch-and-go post-shower routine. If my hair is too wet when I put in gel, the water weighs it down and it sets flat. If it's too dry, the gel doesn't distribute and my hair turns to a half-straight, half-afro abomination. This towel gets it just dry enough, right out of the shower, so I can gel it up and scrunch before I start getting dressed. I never could get my hair to just this perfect dryness level with a terry towel.

One tip: If you have to apply product to your hair while it's still wet, as most curly girls do, you've got to do it right after using the Aquis. It soaks up so much water that your hair will start air-drying right away, and if you wait 10 minutes, you'll have missed the moment -- it'll be too dry to apply product to.

Using it is simple. I turn my sopping, dripping head upside down and use the Aquis to blot/scrunch a ton of water out of it. Then I hang the Aquis up to dry -- which it does nicely and quickly -- and immediately put some gel in my hands, turn my head upside-down again, apply the gel throughout my hair, and scrunch again.

Curly hair is a bit of a roller coaster at the best of times. The bad days are so demoralizing, but on the good days, you feel like a goddess. This product really helps tip the scales toward "goddess." And it costs less than a bottle of the latest designer hair goop. Come on, give it a try!

I have very long hair and cannot spend twenty minutes drying (and damaging) it with the blow dryer. I have been using microfiber hair towels for years and this brand has been the best so far. It cuts drying time in half and is easier to wrap on your head because it is so thin. Highly recommended.

Unlike most of the microfiber that you see today, this looks more like a suede than a typical towel yet has a very comfortable touch. It comes with a little sturdy pouch. Absolutely love this product except for the tag.

- Super absorbent
- Small and portable, great for travel
- Well made, quality and amazing detail
- Very light
- Not as bulky as a regular towel so it takes up very little space in the washer
- Dries much quickly than a terry
- Price is a bit steep

My wife uses this to dry her hair. She loves it and is very happy with the purchase. Her previous towel was heavy and thick and kept falling off the wall hook - this one is thin and stays on the hook, and is easy to wrap and use when she gets out of the shower. This is what she was looking for! It is a perfect size.

This is a great hair towel that I honestly can't live without. I have thick brown hair down to the middle of my back and I can wrap it all up in this towel. It does what it says it will do!
