Anyone else do this?

Because I don't really have that long hair, but I usually use it every time I come out of the bath.

I don't know, but it just the warm air feels good on my skin.

Not me, I hate the sound of hair dryers. If somebody turns it on I get as far away as possible.

You know, I had a college roommate who did this! He was an engineering student and maybe he was somewhat Aspie. We didn't get along, perhaps because I was more Aspie and he found that threatening in certain ways.

No, I have to let my hair air dry because the sound of a hair dryer makes me have a meltdown and I get sick if exposed to extreme heat for extended periods of time. I'm considering getting one of those hair dryers for dog groomers becuase they blow out warm air as opposed to heat. I haven't used a hair dryer in years.

In some circumstances, I like white noise. For example, I love to read in airports. It feels safe, there's interesting people watching, and if it's a halfway good book, I can just fall into the book.

I use it sometimes, but it makes me hot so I don't prefer to. When I was little I liked (or at least was shut up by) noises like that...my parents turned on the vacuum cleaner to make me be quiet.

I have a space heater in my bathroom I like to sit in front of whenever im in there, its kinda the same thing. The white noise and heat can calm me down real good.

^ I second this.

I'd rather suffer wet hair than suffer the noise.
