When to change bath towels?
Just like our sheets, keeping them household towels Maintaining good hygiene will help prevent viruses from settling in our homes. Frequently replacing this item is essential for the care of your family.
Every time we dry ourselves with a towel, the microorganisms, bacteria, and fungi that are part of our skin's normal microbiota transfer to it. While they don't have a negative effect on our skin, when they are transferred to a wet towel, these microorganisms multiply, and that's where they can become harmful to our health.
How often should we wash our towels?
We should replace our body, hand, and hair towels every three or four days. This means washing them twice a week. The same goes for sheets.
PRO TIP: We recommend having several clean sets of towels available to make changing towels easier and faster.
How do I wash my towels?
It's recommended to follow the care instructions on the label for at least the first three washes to maintain the original texture and color. Afterward, you can use a normal wash cycle, remembering not to overuse powdered soap or fabric softener, and avoid washing with textiles other than towels.
PRO TIP: If you want to keep your towels white like they were just bought, you can use white vinegar and baking soda when washing them.
When is it time to buy new ones?
We must be clear that even if we follow all the care and hygiene instructions for our towels, there will still be microorganisms, bacteria, and fungi that will accumulate over time.
A good indicator to know if it's time to invest in a new set is the smell. When your towel smells musty even when it's fresh out of the dryer, it's time. This probably happens every 3 or 4 years if we take good care of it.
We remind you that renewing your towels is essential to maintain the health and well-being of you and your family, so we invite you to see everything we have for you in our Web page .
