What kind of style should you wear if your hair is wet?

Do you mean wet after taking a shower, wet from rain or wet from swimming? My answer will be different for each situation!

mine is NOT able to be untangled until dry. I simply wear mine down until dry.

I wide-tooth my length and bangs slicked back and wear it up in a mid-high pony (since I need to do that to get shorter hairs) with a soft scrunchy (all my scrunchies are soft, but yeah) and a headband to contain my blunt bangs I"m trying to grow out. Works wonders keeping it all out of the way while it dries until i can braid it then that will be my go-to style like when I used to have APL hair. So yeah, I'd say a braid is probably best, if you must have it in a style. It's simple, protects and keeps hairs out of the way, even giving you some waves when it dries. :D

I use the same technique that AcornMystic mentions, though in the winter I might toss on a knit hat over the whole thing.

Hair is at its weakest when wet. Mine is always completely dried before styling.

I let mine down or in a low ponytail (with a scrunchie or claw clip). Another option is a cinnabun. Bangs are often secured up top with a bendy clip.

I damp bun.

I kind of leave it in my towel until my body is dry. Then I let it down and wear down while I'm getting done so it kind of dries, then I twist it in a bun and secure with a hairstick or ficcare.

None. I let my hair air dry, and only start styling it 2 days after wash day anyway.

This ^ is why I let my hair hang down my back until it's fully dry, then I put it up or back or braid it or whatever.

Fortunately for me, it only takes an hour, tops - less in the heat of the summer - for my hair to dry.

I never style my hair when it's wet; I either let it drip-dry without combing/brushing, or I damp bun, so I'll get the pretty waves.

^This. My hair takes forever to dry... even when it is just hanging loose. So I put it up in a bun.

I usually let it loose, but sometimes I will put it in a bun

If my hair gets wet for any reason, I just let it air dry. Wet hair to me is very fragile, and should be left alone if possible.

I leave my hair down to dry as long as possible then I throw it into a damp bun or braid. Usually by the next morning it'll be completely dry and I can leave in down in waves for a bit.

^^ This is what I do too! I add hard-hold gel though, to make it extra smooth when it dries.
Drying in a bun makes my hair a lot straighter than it would otherwise be, and I like that...it's easier to brush and easier for me to get 2nd/3rd/4th day hair...

Been damp bunning for months, cuts down some frizz. :)

Most of the time my hair is down until it dries. If I have to contain it somehow, I'll do a loose english braid with a long tassel. Damp bunning gives me flat hair that's tangly at the ends.

some times I leave it down until it's dry (if I want straight hair) and other days I bun it (to get waves)

I'll do a messy, scrunchie bun thing if I really need it out of my way while it's wet

otherwise, I try to leave it loose to dry as often as I can

I comb and braid it until it dries at least half-way b/c I can only comb and braid it wet (washed) or oiled... then I generally let it down to finish drying or will throw it up in some kind of bun.

haha I find this funny because I essentially do the same thing for the opposite reason!
I leave it down until it's dry (if I want curly hair) and other days I bun it (to make it less curly / wavy)
