Towel dry or air dry?

After a shower? Which do you prefer?

I air dry. Sure it takes longer, but my skin feels much better after rather than rubbing a towel all over myself.

Nothing like a nice hot shower and then relaxing in the wind. :)

    Do you just stand around naked while you dry? :D

    I used to actually air dry, but then I realized that I'm warmer if I towel dry.

    btw...what a random question! :D

    Yeah do you just walk around all wet?

    I do that too :o

    OH you meant after a shower. Why would you do that? After swimming I might jump out of the pool and lie on a lawn chair and air dry that way. But it sounds like you just walk around the house dripping wet until you dry. :eek: How long does that take?

    I don't put on clothes yet. I wait til I'm dry. :p

    I hate having clothes stick to me as well. I noticed that I'd sometimes miss spots when I towel dry, so I I just waited rather than rushed and found out I like it better. :D

    HAHAHAH! Jen...jealous that your thread got deleted and trying to sabotage mine? :p

    And yes, I do. I'll rub my hair a little bit so that's not dripping wet, and stand on the mat and let most of the water run off, but then yeah, just walk out. I don't have carpet, so cleaning up damp spots is tres easy. :)

    Wait! Your hair on your head or down south? Oh, never mind...you just said you don't have any down there...you must wax :p

    But then what if you sit down? Doesn't your furniture get wet??

    I usually sit in the same chair for that if I'm not dry by the time I'm done brushing my teeth, setting out my clothes, etc. Then when I'm dry I go sit in my recliner. Or leave, or continue on doing whatever else I was planning on doing.

    :p

    I towel dry everything but my balls...I air dry them babies. LOL

    J/K


    I wish I had one of those fancy driers in my bathroom because I do agree air dry feels better...and I have dry skin so towel drying doesn't help.

    this is probably the strangest question ive answered

    i towel dry all the time in winter - its too cold to wait, and you can give your skin a good rub down before you slather the bodybutter on

    in summer im more partial to an air dry - but ive got kids so its only if i shower after they've left the house that i wonder down and make a coffee, or stand under the bathroom heater and brush my hair or teeth or whatever.

    besides - to all the people worrying about air drying and bad skin - what do you do at the pool, or the beach?? rush straight out and dry yourself?? i dry my face, but the sun does the rest.

    If you don't towel dry you get water herpes.
    I smile, but who am I kidding...

    What I usually do is after I get done my shower I roll around on the carpet like my dog does in the back yard
