I can't be the only person who does this...

Help settle something for DH & me. DH is laughing at me again (before anyone jumps on accusing DH of emotionally abusing me - this is lighthearted!) because when I get out of the shower or bath I like to sit wrapped in my towel until I'm dry. I hate rubbing myself dry with a towel and would rather sit for 10mins until I dry naturally. DH thinks I am utterly odd for doing this and thinks that everyone else in the world dries themselves with a towel "the normal way".

Tell me I'm not alone in this!

Another lazy drier here! :)

Am I the only one that dries myself with a hairdryer after a shower?!

No, me too! For warmth as much as dryness. And helps to try roll-on deodorant.

Dry not try!

I do this too. I hate the feeling of the towel on wrinkly fingers so sit until the wrinkles have gone....

Bit of both. Pat down some areas, dry between my toes. Towel around my hair.
Then air dry the rest. Sometimes use a hair dryer to dry my bum crack hate a wet crack

Even better if you wrap yourself in a towel then put dressing gown over the top

I want one of those whole body air dryers like they have in theme parks

Lazy lounging drier here too! DH doesn’t get. DD does.

I don't SIT and dry but I potter and dry wrapped in towel. Loads I can do for morning routine whilst I "wait" to dry!

i do this wrap up in towel then lay on bed!! far too hot to do anything else (im one a them that likes the bath water to burn abit)

I put on a towelling robe which dries me whilst I sort my hair out and moisturise my face etc. I never rub dry.

I have another AMAZING SECRET I put on a towelling robe and dry off that way until I need to get dressed or ready for bed!!
It’s a game changer I promise 😉😉😉

Just seen previous post 😂😂😂
Great minds...! 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

I do the same

I sit dry too and I get really annoyed if people come and talk to me during the process. It's my quiet time.

I sit and dry in a towel, it’s one of life’s luxuries to take the time to be calm rather than rush.

Having read about towelling robes I may need to go shopping!

DH used to be amused by me doing similar. He now has his own towelling robe and can out lounge me.

On a much smaller scale to the one mentioned by Purple, we have a hot air drying unit in our wetroom. It was much anticipated and in constant use for about two weeks. It’s like the bathroom equivalent of a cupcake machine now - just too big to chuck in a cupboard though!

Another towelling robe here! Best way to dry

I have a toweling dressing gown used only after a bath - I put it on the radiator while in the bath so it is warm.

I have a towelling bath robe. I put that on till I dry, warmer as more skin area covered.

I’ve found my people, me too. Occasionally I dry my muff with a hairdryer too

Does anybody remember the mumsnetter whose husband used to spend the best part of an hour drying himself with a hairdryer?

Yes, I mentioned that up thread!
