What To Do About USING THE SAME TOWEL TWICE
By: Terry Barga | 15. Oct 2008
So yeah, I don’t like using a towel twice. I could end it there but I will make the case for both. I just thought it right to tell you that I am biased right from the start.
I think that the key to a good fresh towel is a thorough drying process, like a dryer or a gentle summer breeze, not a musty smelly bathroom where excrement particles fly and bacteria are lurking. I like my towel to smell like a warm summer day after the rain has fallen, and if you listen real close you can hear the birds chirping and the bees buzzing. Now thats fresh!!
But no, still some people leave there towels hang in the bathroom over the toilet no less, and right next to the sink. You know people are going to wipe their wet hands on it or their faces, or even if there is no TP, their, well you know.
To these people I ask one question and that question is, why? Why not grab a new towel or hang it somewhere fresher? Why not dry yourself with summer freshness and not dry yourself with tiny fecal matter?
Those are just some questions I have and would like to know the answers to. Till I get them, I will continue to use my fresh towel… ah! Smells like sunshine
I hear ya… I like my towel to receive a thorough and clean drying in between each use. We need to invent a small compartment that circulates fresh filtered air as well as protects the towel from the environment. Or we could just hang it somewhere else.
Your just going to wash off those tiny fecal matters tomorrow in the shower anyway. Why wast the water by getting a new towel every day?
Waste water? Waste water? FACAL MATTER!!!
Mmmm, fecal matter, NO! Seriously using the same towel twice is gross. and snuggle hates you.
LOL! I can say just this… Americans…
You don't have a clue about healthy, hygiene or eco-friendly measures. Quite said, actually.
Oh I am to sad about it, what does make me sad is pooh on my face!
You can't have hate and snuggle in the same sentence!
Yuck – I've known people who use the same towel for a week! Yucky! Yucky! Yucky! Who wants to clean off with a smelly towel after a good scrubb down?! It's like covering freshness with stink. B/c anything damp that dries – well it smells like a wet dog……. And its worth the money and the time to use a fresh towel/washcloth/ daily. So to the recycled towel users – YOU STINK!!!
even if you only take one shower per towel, you will still dry your hair with the same piece of fabric that you just used to dry your butt; you will still rub the same towel on your balls & your face… i could go on
there is no solution
I've thought about this too, great points.
air dry, all the cool kids are doing it

I have a tried and true system.
1. On exiting the shower quickly wipe down your legs, arms, back. This should take no more than a few seconds, and is mostly to prevent dripping on the floor.
2. Move on to hair. I have short hair so a vigorous rub gets my hair dry.
3. Dry everything else.
