This might sound silly but it is a really good tip. It is best if the towel is not made wet in the first instance, by that I mean really wet. If instead of reaching for the towel after the shower or bathing you wipe off the excess water with a small flannel, ringing it out several times as you wipe all that was wet, you can then use a dry towel to finish off. The end result is you have a wet small flannel which is little to no trouble to deal with after ringing it out and a mildly damp towel which will dry very quickly when hung out.
