On sweltering summer days, the last thing you want to do is use a blow dryer. So, what exactly are you supposed to do? Air-drying is the solution! Confused? Don’t worry! We’ve got you covered with how to ace the perfect air-dry every time you step out of the shower... And no, you won’t be left with frizzy locks, we promise!
