Why Your Towel Matters

Hair is delicate when it's wet. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, "roughly rubbing your hair dry can cause damage." A regular bath towel practically asks you to rub. This one asks you to wrap and wait.

What Makes Nanoweave® Different

A tighter weave

Nanoweave® is an elevated form of microfiber, woven tighter than standard microfiber and made for hair.

Serious absorbency

It holds up to 10x its weight in water, so it pulls moisture out instead of pushing it around.

Faster drying

Up to 50% faster than a standard towel.

Is the VOLO Hero Right for Your Hair?

Frizz-prone hair

Rubbing wet hair with a rough towel is one of the easiest ways to invite frizz. Wrap instead.

Curly, wavy and coily hair

Made for plopping, and the strap holds the wrap while your curls set. See our guide to the best hair towel for curly hair.

Color-treated, highlighted and bleached hair

Wrap instead of rub. Read how to towel dry color-treated hair.

Fine hair

Lightweight and soft, and the strap keeps it put.

Long or thick hair

Try the Super Hero XL, with 30% more fabric and an extended strap.

How to Use the VOLO Hero

  1. Squeeze out the excess water. No wringing.
  2. Flip your hair forward, wrap, and secure the strap.
  3. Leave it on for 10 to 20 minutes while you do the rest of your routine.
  4. Unwrap and style as usual, or air dry.

Care

  • Machine wash warm with like colors
  • Tumble dry low, or hang to dry
  • Do not bleach
  • Skip the fabric softener and dryer sheets. They coat the fibers, and a Nanoweave® towel that can't absorb is just a very pretty scarf.
