How long does it take your hair to air dry?

Just gave a look onto the time - my hair is still not completely dry and I washed over 1,5h ago.

So, how long does it take your hair to air dry? I'm a 1cFii and I'm now at 1h and 45 minutes. I'm just interested in the connection in hair type/length and time to dry.

Normally, I air dry until damp and then blow dry on low to finish up...OR I go to bed damp and it's dry in the morning so I am not quite sure how long it takes. When I did my hair typing photos from wet to dry took more than 3 hours...but I did not towel it like I usually do?

I will have to wash early and see

It's so hard to say. On a dry, sunny, warm day it takes far less time than on a cool rainy day.

My hair usually take between two to three hours to dry in the rainy and humid days.But in the summer it can take less than an hour on a hot day.

6 hours. In other words, too long.

Is this really so unusual? I didn't read through the thread, but it seems like there are a lot of 1-3 hour people on the first few pages. And there aren't any specific options for us 3+ hour people, poo! I forgive you, but still.

Mine takes more than three hours and that's with leaving it in a towel for a while and brushing it!

Inside, it takes about 3-4 hour maybe more. I am an 2c and i do not comb my hear more than in the shower with conditioner in it. If I brusch or comb after or dry it gets frizzy and looks like a mess.

Since I pretty much never have the leisure to just sit with my hair free until it is completely dry, I'm not certain about the true length of time, but I voted for more than 3 hours because I certainly don't think it's ever taken less. I usually end up washing it before I got to bed, but even if I have 2 hours between washing it and getting into bed, it's definitely still damp, and as another person said further up, if I bun it when it's still damp, it's still not dry when I take it down many hours later.
