Oh make it 1 hour easy. Depends on how tangled it is. My neck hurts when I'm done after sitting with my head down to dry it. I get a feeling of terrible pain when I just think about washing my hair. It's a chore. Chore 😣😣😣But at the end, when I look in the mirror I smile to myself " uhhh now I'm so pretty" 😂😂😂😂
