Do you let your hair air dry without combing it straight or curling with curlers or appliances or straighteners? I just air dried my hair and left conditioner in it and I have soft, wavy hair and NO frizzies!
It's surprising though how much the waves take away from the length. I'm not allowed to post a pic attachment here, but I'll put it in my album (I'm wearing a light pink shirt for this one - not the album cover, but inside the album). EDIT on May 02/09: discovered I just didn't know HOW to post a pic - that's all!!!

I let my hair air dry also. I used a blowdryer in high school, but that made my hair sooo frizzy and dry. Since I've been air drying my hair is much softer and way less frizzy!

I do air dry, but I always comb it for tangles, finger combing doesn't seem to work entirely for me. That's great that you were so happy with the results!

I used to comb my hair out after I got out of the shower, and it took forever to detangle wet. Sometime around 3-4 years ago, I stopped messing with it when it was wet. Now I just put it in a towel to dry for a while (anywhere from 5 minutes to 2 hours) and then let it air dry. Usually I wash it at night, so it's drying while I'm sleeping (with my hair loose). When I wake up, there are few tangles. It's a lot less time-consuming than detangling wet like I used to do.
I do get bad tangles sometimes, but that's due to laziness on non-wash days. Quote:

I usually comb my hair while it's drying. Finger combing does nothing for me.

If I want a curly day, I don't touch it while its drying-- which is quite often. Otherwise I use my horn comb.

I air dry. I come it out as it dries so it doesn't tangle and drive me nuts, but other than that I just let it do its thing before I style.

I finger comb my hair in the shower when my conditioner is in. After I rinse, I divide my hair into two, like pigtails, one over each shoulder. then I blot my hair with a towel, and then go to a mirror and carefully comb my hair, ends to roots, to get rid of tangles. My hair dries perfectly.

I don't even finger comb until after my hair is dry.
