If necessary, change the towel and replace it with a dry one to continue the process, after the first amount of moisture has been absorbed.

4. Using a blow dryer can easily add extra volume to your hair. What you can do is comb them slightly after bathing and then dry them upside down. Of course, don't forget to use a heat protectant such as an oil, set the dryer to the lowest possible temperature and keep it more than 10cm away from your hair.
