plenty of room for thick and long hair [SEP] this thing was great and worked as well as my diva darling microfiber hair towel i am not sure i would call any of the microfiber towels rapid drying but they do pull out more moisture and create less frizz than a standard bath towel i have super thick wavy coughfrizzycough hair that is just past my shoulders and i had plenty of room to spare with this towel it could easily work for even longer thicker hairit wrapped so easily and really stayed put with the little elastic band in the back my other is a standard towel so you have to twist and tuck and hope it stays not with these super secure plus there is of them so i never have to time laundry and shower againhighly recommend
