If one part of your body should be treated like a prima donna when you step out of the shower, it's your hair. Your hair is most delicate when wet, which is why you might consider coddling it with its own towel. Instead of rubbing or wringing it out with the terry cloth variety (or a t-shirt) in its weakest, most vulnerable state, wrap it in an ultra-absorbent microfiber towel.

Why a microfiber towel? The super-soft synthetic fabric is known for its moisture-wicking properties, so it draws water away from your hair without having to squeeze or tousle it. In other words, it dries hair quickly while helping you avoid unnecessary split ends, and breakage.
