Hair and moisturiser problem. What is the answer, please?

[RedSparklesGreenSparkles]

First world problem, I know that, but I've never found the solution to this.

My hair is type 1A or 1B, it is long. The trouble is that if I leave it to air dry, even in temperatures like this, it takes hours.

I did exactly this today, timed it approximately and it took 3 hours to dry. My hair has always been like this, I don't know why it holds onto water so much.

Also, especially as the weather gets colder I like to wear a thick moisturiser.

How do I have a) dry hair that doesn't b) stick to my face and get greasy after I have moisturised?

If I blow dry my hair, then put it in a grip and moisturise, blot moisturiser and let my hair down I've invariably got an unfortunate kink in my otherwise straight hair & it still sticks to my moisturiser.

Or I moisturise and blot first, then blow dry and my hair sticks to my face anyway and I get oily streaks in my nice blow dry.

Has anyone ever found the answer to this, please?

Have you tried the invisibobbles for your hair

Don't see why you can't use setting powder. I put a full face of make up on my SPF

No way Op! 🤣🤣🤣

We x posted this morning Kerikerikeri I've tried Ultra Sun, I've still got most of the tube left because it was sticky on my skin.

I wouldn't use as many products during the day either e.g. serums as they too seem to take ages to dry on my skin and I'm not using much of thing. Another thing I find is that the silicone in serums make my moisturisers bobble. Though I do use the full monty at nighttime.

Invisibobbles pull fine hair like mine my sister has the same problem with them much more than coated hair bands.

I'm capable of using setting powder CommanderBurnham but does using it affect the SPF qualities of the SPF? Or does anyone know of a setting powder, which is light and includes an SPF so I'm not negating the effectiveness?

No way Op! 🤣🤣🤣

No way to which bit?

It's like you know me. I am a disaster area .

What does type 1A hair mean? misses point of thread completely

Oh I see @BusterGonad now way to the Nuxe thing? I promise.

Earlier I was tempted to take photos of my skincare products. You wouldn't believe the sheer volume of stuff I have and yet I still can't find the answer.

One of my friends spent a lot of time working in the US pre Covid. The Kate Somerville moisturiser was one that she picked up for me.
