I can't choose. I like both. Variety is the spice.
Air dried
Blow fried
My hair looks better on the day I wash it if it's blow dried, but only on the first day, afterwards it's like straw. If I need it to look good on the day I wash it I put it in big rollers and the blow dry gently with no heat.

Hee hee! I want to mention that the wording of your poll will probably skew your results - "blow-fried"??? LOL!!!
Frankly, I think my hair looks a lot better blow dried but I don't do that because I know it's damaging and I want to have long hair.
Air dried, unless on rollers with setting gel,my hair ends up totally slick and flat. With rollers, it still feels and looks thinner. I am working on ways to remedy that because heat is the hair-killer! (I wrote that on my mirror.) Someone here suggested aloe gel, and I am liking it a lot for adding some texture.
Onward to further (heat not included) experimentation ...
Air dried for me. For most beautiful look blow fried, I'd have to use a flatiron afterwards and that just ain't happ'ng (damage, damage, damage).

Air dried, because my hair is smoother and shinier that way. Blow drying in the past led to frizz.

blow drying= big, frizzy, poofy mess
So needless to say, my hair looks better air dried.

I prefer air dried too as my hair looks more curly and shiny however i get more baby hairs showing which go when i blow dry however blowdrying makes my hair look drier and the shine is a lot less and the curl all but goes!

One more vote for air drying...you don't want to see what my blowdried hair looks like. *shudder*
The last time I used a blowdrier on myself was 4 years ago when my mom forced me to ("You're NOT going out with wet hair!" Blah), and it was awful. All poofy and frizzy...
I'd say air-dried
The last time I truly blow-dried my hair was a year ago, it was made spaghetti straight. Goh. I didn't look bad, but I definitely wasn't used to it. That and the stupid hairstylist cut my hair in a type of bob. Ew.
Now when it air-dries, granted, my hair's curly, and indoors with no exposure to wind it dries very curly and shiny... But outdoors air-dried with quite some wind then the afro-monster is released! AAGH!
When I finger-comb, it frees tangles but it also just increases volume :P
I air dry my hair. Sleeping on it keeps the frizzies away enough.
