Most women get out of the shower, bend over, and twist a large bath towel over their wet hair. They spend the next 20 minutes trying to get ready, all with one hand on the towel so it doesn’t fall off — which it always does — repeatedly. To the rescue: the Turbie Twist Towel.

Hair Gadget Confession: “I HATE the feeling of wet hair, not to mention how it drips water everywhere. I use this every day as soon as I get out of the shower.
