The Raftyn Waffle Weave Hair Towel

 

We were lucky enough to collaborate with Raftyn Rignell on our first hair towel! The Raftyn hair towel was created with two factors in mind:

High absorbency and a weightless effect that doesn't drag on hair when it is at its most fragile: when it is wet.

Raftyn's 100% pure cotton waffle weave has a stretchy band for securing the ends of the towel at the back of the head. This towel is low tension and lightweight, both of which are recommended to avoid roughing the hair cuticle, preventing frizz, and creating virtually no pull on waves and ringlets as they dry.  

This ability to squeeze out excess moisture easily and retain natural texture is key to fresh, bouncy curls. The unique square shape offers complete coverage for people with long hair also.

The Loomia Care Guide

General Care Tips

• Wash new items before first use for a better experience.
• Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and harsh detergents.
• Treat stains promptly by blotting, not rubbing.
• For tough stains, use mild stain remover or water/baking soda mix. Test it on a small spot first.

• Shake towels before drying to fluff them.
• Don’t wash with items that have zippers or buttons to avoid damage.
• Cut snagged loops instead of pulling them to prevent further damage.
