If there is one hair product that I could not be without, take away with me, have taken to a hair salon and use every single time I wash my hair - it is the AQUIS towel or turban.
I was first introduced to the Aquis Lisse towel back in 2016, here, and I haven’t used another towel on my hair since that has come even close to be as good as this brand! I have four of them in my collection in different patterns and the latest addition is the AQUIS Charmeuse 2 Layer Turbanin the colour Ruby Red - perfect for the month of February!
The AQUIS’ deluxe Double Layer Hair Turban, described as being a chic ruby hue and it features AQUIS’s proprietary AQUITIEXTM technology which is referred to as being a moisture-wicking fabric which is paired with a super sleek charmeuse outer layer.
Your hair, if you didn’t know, is at its most vulnerable when it is wet, scientific evidence suggest it loses around 56%* of its strength due to keratin proteins absorbing all the water, so it is important to handle your hair with care and draw as much moisture out as quickly and effectively as possible. The innovative AQUITIEXTM fabric, within this turban, not only cuts drying time by up to 50%, but it also protects the natural integrity of your hair. This essentially means that it helps your hair to reach a damp state quicker where it can begin to regain its strength, ready to be styled as desired.
This silky multi-purpose charmeuse layer, which looks much better than your average bath towel also helps to protect your hair further whilst you sleep - How?, if you haven’t discovered the joys of a silk pillow yet, then this is a pretty good alternative! For dry hair, you can turn this turban inside out when you go to bed and it will help to reduce pillow friction which can cause frizz, breakage and the dreaded bed-head.
As a hair towel, it is incredibly easy to use and it does come with instructions if you have never used one before. It’s simply a case a ensuring the button sits at the nape of your neck, a little twisting and then fastening to loop to fix the turban in place. Then as you finish getting ready, or have other things to be getting on with, allow the towel to work it’s magic and remove once your hair is damp.
Why do I love these products so much? If you are someone to rubs your hair dry with a towel, you will no doubt notice that your hair becomes frizzy, there might be static and tangles and knots are a nightmare to comb through - none of this happens whilst I have used an Aquis Towel/turban. I do still have a few flyaways which tends to be newly grown hair, but there is definitely less breakage and snagging.
