A microfibre towel is better for your hair

This is why a microfibre towel is better for your hair

In this blog, we will tell you why it is much better for your hair to use a microfibre towel to dry your hair. If you dry your hair with an ordinary cotton towel, the rough fibres can damage your cuticle. This can cause your hair to become dry, frizzy and your ends to split as well.

Cotton towel

A regular towel is often made of cotton. Cotton is a natural material made of fibres. These fibres are relatively thick and have sharp edges. When you use a cotton towel to dry your hair with, these sharp edges can damage the hair cuticles. The fibres are also quite thick, so they can easily penetrate the hair cuticles. Your hair becomes dry and frizzy as a result.

Large and heavy

In addition, an ordinary towel is often quite large and heavy. This can cause your hair to be pulled as you wrap the towel around your hair like a turban. This is not good for your hair or your hair follicles.

What happens when your hair cuticles get damaged?

Hair cuticles are the outer layer of your hair. They protect your hair from damage and help keep it hydrated. When your hair cuticles become damaged, your hair can become dry, frizzy and brittle. It can also lead to split ends.

  • Dryness: Damaged hair cuticles cannot moisturise hair properly, leaving hair dry and dull.
  • Frizz: Damaged hair cuticles can open up and not connect properly. This can lead to frizz and static hair.
  • Fragility: Damaged hair cuticles can be weaker, causing hair to break more easily.
  • Split ends: Damaged hair cuticles may break off, causing split ends.

This is why a microfibre turban is better for your hair

Amicrofibre turban is usually made of synthetic fibres made of polyester or polyamide. These fibres are extremely thin and lightweight, giving them a large surface area relative to their weight. This makes them highly absorbent and soft. Polyester is a strong and durable fibre that resists wear well. Polyamide is a soft and comfortable fibre that absorbs moisture well. They are also small and light. As a result, they do not pull on your hair and hair follicles.

The advantages of a microfibre turban are:

  • The soft fibres of a microfibre towel do not rub your hair, reducing the risk of hair breakage and tangles. However, you should, of course, gently dab yourself and not still rub.
  • They help define curls. The soft fibres of a microfibre towel help define curls by not damaging or stretching them.
  • They are quick-drying. Microfibre tturbans dry quickly, making your hair less likely to dry out.

Microfibre towels are therefore a good choice for anyone looking for a soft, absorbent towel. A microfibre towel is better for your hair because it protects your hair from damage caused by rubbing and keeps it healthy, soft and shiny.
