Product Description ✨
Traditional towels are abrasive and far too rough — which is basically just asking your hair to frizz, break, and dry out. The Scruncher is your curl-friendly alternative: a microfibre towel designed to support your styling routine without disturbing your texture.
Used to scrunch out excess water from the hair, it’s super-absorbent and gentle fabric helps reduce drying time while preserving your curls’ shape and clumps.
Unlike conventional towels that can rough up the hair cuticle, this advanced microfibre smooths it down — helping to lock in moisture, reduce frizz, and protect your curl definition. It’s not meant for wrapping, rubbing, or plopping — just for gently scrunching and micro-plopping after your styling products have been applied.
Whether you're aiming for bounce, clumps, or quicker drying time, The Scruncher is your essential for defined, frizz-free results.
⭐ GENTLE ON CURLS Created specifically for textured hair, the microfibre fabric absorbs water without disrupting your curl pattern or causing breakage.
⭐ NO MORE FRIZZ Forget rough towels that snag and shred your strands. The Scruncher smooths the hair cuticle, locking in moisture and leaving curls soft and defined.
⭐ SPEED UP DRYING TIME By removing excess water after styling, this towel helps cut down on drying time — whether you’re air drying or diffusing.
⭐ ENCOURAGES CLUMPING Helps curls clump together naturally, boosting definition and hold once your products are applied.
Product Material & Sizing ✨
Made from ultra-soft, high-absorbency microfibre, The Scruncher is gentle on curls and highly effective at removing excess water.Towel size: 40cm x 60cm.
Who Is This For ✨
✔ All Curl Types – Suitable for waves, curls, and coils of every length and texture.
✔ Anyone Looking to Define & Reduce Frizz – Gently dries hair without disrupting curl structure or breaking up clumps.
✔ Low-Maintenance Curl Care – An easy addition to any wash day routine that protects definition and shortens drying time.
How to Use ✨
1. Always apply your styling products to sopping wet hair to encourage maximum hydration and curl clumping.
2. Once your products are applied, use The Scruncher to gently squeeze out excess water. Place the towel over your hand, then cup a section of your curls in your palm and scrunch gently upwards. Move around your head in sections, repeating the motion until your hair feels damp — not dripping, but still well hydrated.
3. Avoid rubbing, wringing, or aggressively towel-drying your hair — this creates frizz and can disrupt the curl clumps you’ve just created during styling. The goal is to preserve the shape and integrity of your curl pattern while removing just enough water to speed up drying time.
4. This gentle scrunching technique encourages the formation of defined curl clumps that will hold their shape as your hair dries.
5. Once you've removed the excess moisture, refrain from touching your curls. From this point, you can either let your hair air dry naturally or begin diffusing — just be sure to keep hands off to prevent frizz and preserve definition.
Gentle, non-abrasive microfibre designed for textured hair.
Compact, Travel-Ready Size

Frequently Asked Questions
What is this towel used for?
The Scruncher is designed to gently scrunch or micro-plop your curls after applying styling products. It helps remove excess water while preserving your curl clumps and minimising frizz.
Can I wrap my hair in this towel?
No — The Scruncher is not intended to be used as a wrap. It’s specifically made for scrunching or micro-plopping to protect the shape and definition of your curls. If you're looking for a hands-free wrap solution, we recommend trying our Curl Hugger instead.
What size is the towel?
It measures 40cm x 60cm — small enough to be compact and travel-friendly, but large enough to comfortably scrunch longer curls.
How do I wash it?
Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours. Avoid fabric softeners or harsh detergents, as they can coat the microfibre and reduce absorbency. Let it air dry to preserve softness and performance.
How should I store it?
After drying, fold or roll the towel and keep it in a drawer, bag, or wherever you store your wash day tools. Its compact size makes it easy to take with you or tuck away between uses.

The best product ever for curly hair
I use to hate my curls and are now totally in love with the
I realized why I always kept my hair cropped short, when I grew my hair when I turned 50. Since then, for the past 4 years, I have fought with my hair, which is knotty, dull and dry. Then a dear friend with beautiful curls and an even more beautiful heart shared her secret with me, shared her products with me and even washed my hair for me, demonstrating how to lock in the moisture. Squish, squish, squish. And voila... No more knots and dull, dry hair. Hello IntrinsiCurly Me. I'll use only you forever more! And I have hair that is as straight as a pin. 😂
The IntrinsiCurly Me products are absolutely amazing. My curls love these products. The conditioner creates such a nice slip, the curl creme reduces frizz and enhances the curls and the gel forms a fantastic cast! I love the microfibre towel, definitely a must for curls. Thank you IntrinsiCurly Me for making the curl journey a pleasure!
First time user of ICM products...Finished setting the curls and scrunched out excess water before diffusing results amazing..so frizzless and fabulous!
I used my micro towel this morning and loved the way it soaked up excess water without having to squeeze it or rub my hair. If not already a part of your routine, I highly recommend the purchasing of one.
I’ve been a curly girl for years and never owned one of these before this would definitely be the item I never knew I needed to complete a wash day! Plus the design is beautiful 😻
The microfibre towel is a must for every curly girl! I use it to scrunch out the excess moisture before I apply the products. Then, as soon as I have applied the products, I once again scrunch out any excess moisture that is still left. I then diffuse on a very slow and low heat setting. I cannot go without this towel! It is magic!
This towel has changed my whole Curly Hair Regime, it is such a pleasure to use right after I apply the curl creme... to get all the excess water off the hair, really love this NEEDED accessory! Would love to have an option to choose a darker print, as colouring my hair will stain this towel even after a few washes, but love it!
I couldn't believe it! I was doing it wrong all this time! This towel, and the hair products are wonderful! Never knew my curls could be so beautiful! Thank you!!!
My hair feels so soft and hydrated. My curls pop more than ever before! These products are so great I don't even need to reapply the products the next day. Just a little bit of water to freshen up my curls and I'm good to go. So happy to have found products that make my hair feel light, soft and shiny!
I started the Curly Girl Method 6 weeks ago and I am so grateful that I have not only found a product that my curls absolutely love, but that this is also a #proudlysouthafrican🇿🇦 product and I have the opportunity to support a local business. Thank you to the whole team at IntrinsiCurlyMe 💜💜💜💜
Amazing for plopping, I use it every time. Would love it to be a little bit bigger, because I have a lot of hair, but it works wonderfully non the less
This toel was like maaaagiccc! When my hair was fully done after the cream and gel, I used my scrunch tewel and I saw the real magic right before my eyes. The crunch/dry feeling dissapeared and I was left with soft bouncy curls... Love my scrunch towel
Store owner replied:
"Maaaagiccc" might just be our new favourite description! 😂✨ We LOVE that moment when the crunch disappears and those soft, bouncy curls come through. So happy you love your Scrunch Towel, Elsabe! 💛
Store owner replied:
Thank you, Jana! 💛 We love hearing that your towel has become your go-to. Gentler drying makes such a difference for healthy curls.
I think I need to use it right but not possible now as I had an operation on my right arm. Once I did I can do a proper review
Store owner replied:
Hi Brigette 💛 Wishing you a speedy recovery! We hope you're feeling better soon and look forward to hearing what you think once you've had a chance to use it properly.
Super nice and soft, very easy to use, absorbs water from hair surprisingly well. Definitely feel that has helped reduce the frizzing in contrast to normal towels.
Store owner replied:
So glad you're loving the towel, Teresa!
It works beautifully. It shapes my curls an reduces the frizz. The towel makes a big difference and I love it. I would highly recommend it. An added bonus is that the towel is super soft... :-)
Store owner replied:
Thank you for this glowing review, Chanelle! We’re so happy the towel is helping your curls thrive — and yes, the softness is the cherry on top!
