Bambus Turban Handtuch mit Knopf | Mint

The Bamboo Turban Towel by Curly'N'Covered was specially developed for curls, waves, and Afro-textured hair. Its smooth, soft surface absorbs excess water without unnecessarily roughening the hair or removing too much moisture while drying.

This is especially important for curly hair: vigorous rubbing with classic terry cloth can loosen individual hairs from curl clumps, promote frizz, and mechanically stress wet hair. The bamboo hair turban enables significantly gentler drying and thus helps reduce frizz, hair breakage, and split ends.

• Product type: pre-shaped turban towel for gentle drying

• Curly Girl Method: very well suited to a curl-friendly, low-friction drying routine
• Quality: one size, handmade in Germany

The major advantage over a classic hair towel is its pre-shaped turban form: the hair can be wrapped with just a few simple movements, and the turban is secured via the loop and coconut button. It stays reliably in place without the towel needing constant adjustment.

The turban is also very well suited for plopping. The curls sit compactly on the head and are less weighed down by their own weight while drying. This helps preserve their natural clumping better - for more definition, volume, and bounce.

The comparatively lightweight fabric has been chosen deliberately. The turban absorbs excess water but is not intended to dry the hair completely as quickly as possible. This leaves some residual moisture, which is especially important for curls so they remain soft, elastic, and defined.

The bamboo hair turban is therefore also ideal for a Curly Girl routine, in which the natural curl structure is treated as gently as possible and unnecessary friction is avoided.

Instructions

After washing, work leave-in conditioner, curl cream, or styling product into the wet hair as usual.

Place the hair turban over the hair with the wide side and loosely gather the curls inside it. Then carefully twist the tapered end. Make sure not to twist the curls themselves and do not wrap the turban either too loosely or too tightly.

Bring the twisted end toward the back of the head and fasten the loop to the coconut button. This keeps the turban securely in place without requiring constant adjustment.

Allow the hair to dry partially for about 15-30 minutes, then remove the turban. Dry the hair completely afterward either naturally or with a diffuser.

Material & Care

Material: 68% viscose (derived from bamboo), 28% cotton, 4% elastane

• Washing: machine wash at 30 °C
• Drying: air dry, not suitable for tumble drying - bamboo viscose is sensitive to heat and may shrink in the dryer
• Bleaching: do not bleach
• Ironing: iron at a moderate temperature without hot steam

The soft bamboo-viscose fabric has been tested for substances relevant to health and is suitable for direct skin contact. With the exception of silk, Curly'N'Covered sources most of its fabrics within the EU. From design to production, the hair turban is made in Germany.

The testing applies to the fabric used, not to the finished hair turban. Therefore, the finished product itself does not bear a corresponding consumer-protection seal.

As each hair turban is handmade, its size may vary slightly.

FAQ

What is a turban towel?

A turban towel is a specially shaped hair towel that can easily be placed around the hair and secured after washing. The Curly'N'Covered hair turban has a wide side for the hair and a tapered tip that is twisted and fastened via a loop to the coconut button.

What is the advantage of the coconut button?

Together with the loop, the coconut button keeps the turban securely in place on the head. This means it does not need to be knotted or repeatedly tightened - especially practical when classic towels easily slip while being wrapped.

What benefits does the hair turban offer for curls?

The smooth surface reduces friction while drying and thus helps prevent frizz and unnecessary mechanical stress. At the same time, the curls remain compact on the head and are less weighed down by their own weight. This can support definition, volume, and natural bounce.

Can you plop with the hair turban?

Yes. The turban is very well suited for plopping. The wet or already styled curls are placed compactly in the turban and secured on the head. They can dry partially without being rubbed dry or unnecessarily stretched out.

How long should you wear the hair turban?

For many curl types, about 15-30 minutes is a good starting point. The goal is to absorb excess water, not to dry the hair completely in the turban. Depending on hair density, length, and curl structure, the ideal duration may vary slightly.

Can you sleep overnight with the hair turban?

No, the hair turban is not intended for this. The hair and scalp would remain damp for many hours. In addition, wet hair is more sensitive to mechanical stress. Hair should be completely dry before sleeping.

Is the bamboo hair turban suitable for the Curly Girl Method?

Yes. Among other things, the Curly Girl Method aims to avoid unnecessary friction while drying and disturb the natural curl structure as little as possible. The smooth bamboo viscose and the option of gentle plopping fit very well with this type of curl care.

Why is bamboo viscose better suited than classic terry cloth?

Classic terry cloth has a coarser surface structure. Rubbing can create more friction, which may loosen individual hairs from curl clumps and encourage frizz. The smooth surface of the Curly'N'Covered turban enables much gentler drying.

Why does the turban not absorb as much water as a classic terry towel?

That is part of the concept. The material absorbs excess water without removing all the hair's moisture as quickly as possible. Curls especially benefit from some residual moisture so that they remain elastic, soft, and well clumped.

Does the turban also fit long or thick hair?

The hair turban comes in one size and adapts to different head shapes and hair lengths through its shape and fastening. However, for very long or very thick hair, the larger bamboo hair towel may provide more space.

What is the difference between the bamboo hair turban and the regular bamboo hair towel from Curly'N'Covered?

Both are made from the same soft bamboo-blend fabric and enable low-friction drying. The hair turban is already shaped to fit and is especially easy to secure with the loop and coconut button. The classic hair towel, on the other hand, offers more surface area and flexibility, for example for microplopping or very long and thick hair.
