As the temperatures dip, drying your hair before leaving the house becomes more important than ever. Hey, I remember the days of watching my wet hair freeze while waiting for the bus as a kid. Not such a big deal in the third grade, but when you're an adult on your way to work? That's a look you want to avoid.

If you work in your workouts before heading to work, there are a few tools and products that can cut your drying time down significantly.

When it comes to the dryer, Sedu is tough to beat. Sarah James of Hair Thursday says, "I love my Sedu 4000i Hair Dryer. It cuts drying time in half, and actually isn't that big, given how powerful it is. Total lifesaver when you're in a time crunch!"

Before you get to that point, though, you want to get as much moisture out of your hair as possible. Using a wide-toothed comb will help separate the hair, allowing air to get to it. Additionally, consider getting dressed and applying your makeup before starting in with the blow dryer to allow your hair to air dry as much as possible.

To get even more moisture out of your hair, avoid wringing it out. Instead, use an extra-absorbent hair towel like the Aquis Essentials Microfiber Hair Towel to speed the process up.
