Towels are a household staple, but it can be a struggle to maintain the quality of our towels over time. They may lose their softness, fade in color, or even develop a musty smell. Replacing towels frequently can become an expensive and wasteful habit.
The good news is that with proper care, you can make your towels last longer and help retain their fluffiness, absorbency, and appearance. Understanding the factors that affect a towel’s lifespan, from how they’re washed to how they’re stored, is the first step toward prolonging their usability, our laundry experts reveal.
