Hair Drying

edited March 2010 in Commuting chat
After the morning shower at work my hair, like most other hairy headed people who wash their hair in the shower, is wet.
Up till now I would towel dry it and be happy. But I havent been to the ear lowering shop for a while and its a bit long now.
Now I usually have a Richard Hammond sort of thing going on, but when I put hair products in I need it dry or it looks crap. Am I being a tart in wanting a hair dryer installed to dry it properly?

I feel I have answered my own question... :oops:

    I'm confused. Your user name involves the word boy so I assumed you were male. But you are talking about washing hair and drying it like a burd, so now I'm confused and frightened.

    That's all I had to add, my hair reacts to water differently to yours...

    I have genuinely no idea what you're talking about. I believe I understood most of the words, apart from "hair dryer".
    Sometimes parts break. Sometimes you crash. Sometimes it’s your fault.

    Installed? Installed on your bike? Wouldn't the normal procedure be to buy one...and plug it in? I may be wrong, I'm a number 1 kinda guy so have no experience in these things really.

    Hair dryer = towel.


    Is there a hot-air hand dryer? Try sticking your head under that.
    Unless it's one of those Dyson airblade ones. That could be painful.

    It's a ridiculously expensive brand of hair straighteners that my wife insisted upon rather than the £30 jobbies I offered to get her

    Chuck Norris doesn't dry his hair, his hair dries up water.

    Real men rub battery acid into their hair the acid dries up everything see...

    Ditto for me as a burd. Even after 17 years my friends still lapse and ask me if I have such things as combs, hair bands etc :shock: :)

    unless I am going out my hair washing routine is simple...wash, towel dry, comb and leave.

    Men seem to faff about their hair more than us girls, but then I guess we have shoes to worry about instead :wink:

    my hair washing routine is dead easy...

    I start washing my face with a flannel and some soap....then just keep going up and back, until I have washed the back of my neck.

    Hair drying? yours must be faulty...mine is dry by the time i am even out of the shower! :wink:

    I quite like the Dyson AirBlade idea. You would have to keep your eyes shut or glasses on though... 8)

    I've been known to stick my head under the hand drier at work after coming in particularly soaked.

    I wouldn't normally care, but dripping all over the keyboard when I'm trying to read forums... er.. write code gets quite annoying.
