Why your hair towel keeps slipping off

Why your hair towel keeps slipping off

If your hair towel slides off the moment you move, the problem isn't your technique. It's the towel.

Why hair towels slip

Three things usually cause it: the towel is too heavy and gravity pulls it loose, the surface is too smooth to grip itself, or there's no anchor holding the end in place. Fix those three and it stays on.

What actually stays on

    A hair towel stays on when it's light enough not to fight gravity, textured enough to grip itself, and anchored so the end can't work loose. That's the design behind The Hair Towel.

    It's a knitted terry, cotton loops built on a fine polyester net with a touch of elastane. The knit makes it lighter and gives it a natural grip against itself. The elastic back strap loops to hold the excess fabric in place, so it stays on while you move, get dressed, do everything else. The structure pulls water off your hair instead of pressing it against your head, so the towel doesn't turn heavy and cold as it absorbs.

    It's made in Portugal from a cotton-blend terry built to last. The knitted loop keeps its structure through wash after wash instead of flattening out over time.

    If you've been re-tucking a towel after every hair wash, the towel was working against you. This one is built to stay.
