Buy It And Try It: Twisty Towel

At Orlando's West Palm Salon in Granite Bay, they know how to pamper you. One of his most notable clients they say was Liza Minelli. In fact, Orlando travels the world with her.

Back at home time means money, and when it comes to drying hair it can take quite some time.

The Twisty Towel, the original super absorbent hair towel promises to dry hair in seconds.

"I have a hard time believing that," said Orlando.

So Orlando washes the hair of two clients. Desiree who has thin hair and Felicia with hair that's long and thick. It's time for each of them to follow the simple directions. Place, twist and fasten.
Both think it's easy to use, and much more lightweight than a bulky towel.

10 minutes, or 600 seconds later they said it feels the same.

They don't think it lived up to its claim... However, would they buy it?

"Questionable. Yes. I would for make-up applications," they said.

They still need to use the good old blow dryer to dry their hair completely. We paid $9.99 plus tax it comes with two towels at Bed Bath and Beyond.
