Hair! Haircare, Styling, all things hair.

I've seen Mell and others do this to speed drying (and her hair does always turn out lovely), but it seems like you'd be pulling out the product you just spent time carefully working into your hair. You could gently re-add product, but the whole time you are applying product you are supposed to keep wetting your hair to make sure the product works correctly, so it seems like you end up in a loop of wet hair-add product-hair too wet-dry hair but remove product-rewet hair to add product-hair too wet-ad nauseum. If it's okay to suck out some of the product to get your hair drier faster, doesn't that imply you shouldn't need that much product in the first place? Or that your hair doesn't need to be that wet to add it in the first place?
