  intro: "The drying decision happens before the styling decision. How you remove water from the hair determines what every product you apply can do — and sets the limit on how much damage your week accumulates. Three paths exist: heat styling (diffuser, blow-dry, straighteners, or curling iron on dry hair), air drying in its many configurations (plop, open-air, twist-and-set), and the hybrid approach that takes the best of both. Below is the complete library across all three — organised by technique, searchability, and what's worth reading first.",

    body: "How you dry your hair isn't just about speed or convenience — it determines how the cuticle settles, whether frizz forms, and how much cumulative heat damage accrues over weeks of styling. Heat is a tool, not a villain. Air drying is not automatically gentler — wet hair is structurally fragile. The right decision depends on your texture, the finish you want, and how much manipulation your hair can absorb that day.",

  myths: [
    { m: "Air drying is always safer than blow-drying.",
      t: "Wet hair that stays wet for extended periods undergoes osmotic stress inside the cortex — a process called hygral fatigue. A low-heat blow-dry used correctly can be less damaging than prolonged air drying on fine or porous hair." },
    { m: "High heat gives a faster result.",
      t: "High heat concentrates damage in spots that lose moisture fastest — the ends and any area you linger over. Medium heat with constant movement is faster and significantly less damaging." },
    { m: "You can't air dry and get volume.",
