I like to have my hair split in a legitimately particular manner, however first of all, I like to have several layers split into my hair, so it has a cascading effect, but secondly, I’ve had bangs since I was 15 years old, as well as I refuse to be separate from them.
The only problem with both of these preferences is that they require me to spend a significant amount of time drying my hair every afternoon to put the strands in the right location.
I seriously cannot just let it air dry, or it goes in all sorts of weird directions. So every afternoon after I shower I get stuck holding up this heavy little piece of machinery, struggling to get the job done, honestly, I usually have to turn on my A/C unit to get through it. The humidity in the powder room makes it impossible to dry off unless the a/c is running. The heat from being trapped in there pumping the little room full of tepid blowing air has to be counterbalanced by cold dry air from the vents. Otherwise, I’m covered in sweat too much to even dry my hair or be able to hold up the device. I’m afraid of how much these little spurts of intense a/c cost me, but I feel like I usually am pretty responsible about running the cooling unit at a lower speed all other times of the afternoon. I also have a pretty energy efficient A/C unit, so I believe it could be worse. Either way, it’s worth the cost for good hair.
