The entire Mimi Diva line is made from Aquis' "Terry" weave which is the softest and fluffiest of their weaves.

This is an excellent product for young girls at home and especially at camp & at sleepovers since the product is so light and absorbent. The button helps keep everything in place.

The downside to the Aquis' "Terry" weave is that it attracts a lot of fluff and lint and gets very static-y out of the dryer. Ohterwise an excellent product.

The Mimi Diva line is aimed at teens and younger girls (hence the cutesy packing and pink/white colors) and the sizing is Junior sizing, smaller than their other line of products. These turbans are sized to fit heads that measure 20"-21" size small or 22" size medium with thin hair. If you have a sized medium head or larger and/or have thick or long hair, their turbans in their regular lines would fit better.

Turbans in their regular lines are only available in their other two weaves: the Original Lisse Crepe weave and the Waffle Weave. If you have exceptionally thick or long hair, even the adult sized turbans won't fit, and the bath towels (size XL) would be better. The size L towels (also marketed as their hair towels) are only a touch larger than their adult turbans.

I purchased this product with the intention of having it handy for our many granddaughters visits. I already owned my own microfiber turban (another brand) and was satisfied...until...that turban was in the wash and I needed one to wrap my wet hair. WOW! What a difference! This is so superior to my other turban that I threw that one away and will purchase four or five of this brand to keep on hand for granddaughter visits!

I've tried many different hair turbans, each claiming to be the fastest at drying your hair. I finally decided to purchase this one online, and I'm truly happiest with this product (I've returned all the other hair turbans). The Diva Dryer dries hair faster than other turbans, the material is very soft, and it cuts my morning routine time dramatically. It seems to help reduce frizz as well, perhaps because of less time using a hair dryer...Highly recommended product!

I can't really tell if this speeds my drying time at all. It is nice that it's smaller and doesn't weigh so heavy on my neck and shoulders. However, I am a little put-off by the lint debris problem! Everything on earth REALLY sticks to this towel, especially from the laundering process.

I ordered this because I wanted something to wrap my met hair in that would stay in place. I've just used a bath towel in the past, but it didn't stay in place very well. My hair is about shoulder length, and it probably doesn't need the capacity of this turban. Ifind the turban useful because it has a button at the back and a loop a the front to allow you to secure the turban in place once you have wrapped your hair in it and twisted the turban. It takes a bit of practice to get it right, but it does provide a means of keeping wet hair in place while you are drying off.

This microfiber towel is wonderful. Microfiber is great for naturally curly hair as it doesn't cause the hair to frizz. I apply my product, pile my hair on top of my head and let it dry for 15 minutes or so. Then diffuse for a few more minutes.
My microfiber towels are off limits to the rest of my family. Love them!

This is a great addition to your morning routine to help save some time and get you out the door sooner. The hair turban is like an oversized, super absorbant shower cap. I have yet to master the "technique" of making the turban, so I resorted to placing my hair inside the cap, twisting the back and placing it on one side of my shoulder.
Since this dries your hair more so than if you leave it air dry or keep it in a towel, I found that when I do then blow dry my hair, my hair feel more healthy and not as fried when I'm finished.

This is a great product. Simple to use. Just bend over, flip wet hair over head put item on with button away from head - twist tight, stand up and button behind head. Even my 9 year old loves it. I'm ordering 2 more today. It is much more absorbent than a regular towel, less bulky and the shade of pink is very pretty. Makes you feel real "girly" using it. We just love it.

Easy to use - check
Absorbs water - check
Looks cool - eeeh, not so much

But am I glad I purchased it? Absolutely - saves me time, and my hair always looks nice after styling. Great value product!

This wrap does dry your hair fast. The fabric is nice and looks like a regular towel. However, the instructions say to twist, twist, twist! your hair in the wrap then fasten the loop over the button closure behind your head. Impossible! The wrap would not nearly cover my head if I did this. Also, when twisting, the button goes all askew and I have to recenter it in order to fasten it. To fasten I can barley turn it just 1/4th a turn (just enough to hold my hair). This wouldn't exactly dry my hair if I didn't use it to remove excess moisture from my hair first, and it is too short to cover the front of my crown, no matter what I do.
I do have long hair, maybe thats why.
Another thing, the button started to come off in 2 days.
If you have short hair, and are not a button abuser, this would probably be a solid product for you.
I just didn't know such a simple thing could make life more complicated.
