When you don't have time to air-dry, a diffuser attachment for your blow-dryer will make all the difference in how your hair looks (It's also incredibly inexpensive). A standard blow-dryer, according to Shorter, damages strands because it creates violent wind around the hair. This can lead to frizzy, tangled tresses. A diffuser disperses the air and focuses it around the curls. The unique shape of the attachment cups your coils as they dry, keeping your curl pattern intact.
Harbinger cautions against shaking or agitating the hair while blow-drying it. Instead, twist your curls into the shape you want while your hair is still damp, and then gently lift small sections of your curls, cupping them with a diffuser. Disturbing the curls as little as possible will give your hair maximum definition without frizz, explains Harbinger.
