I have tried:
• air drying (takes too long, extends wet hair misery)
• having short hair (can’t have short hair at one of my jobs)
• dryer bonnet (somewhat better cuz at least I can sorta multitask)
• sitting in front of box fan (takes too long)
• paying hairdresser to do it (expensive)

Figured I’d see if you guys know any tips and tricks…

    Out of curiosity before you stopped shampooing what shampoo and conditioner did you use and how often did you wash your hair?

      I tried a lot of things to get it under control, but most recently it was Head and Shoulders anti dandruff shampoo and another conditioner for anti dandruff, I can’t remember the name of that one. I tried a bunch of strategies including daily washing, every second or third day, weekly, and so on. I also tried coal tar, Selsun, various other dandruff shampoos, and some typical shampoo options too.

      I hate washing my hair, it is anywhere between shoulder and mid back length and used to take ages to dry. At the moment I find just rinsing it out with water lets it dry very quickly, like it didn’t really get properly wet. I also find it is stronger and doesn’t snap off when brushing.
