Each family member should have at least 4 towels in the bathroom.
This advice was given by therapist and cosmetologist Kristina Radina.
The expert named the optimal number of towels in the bathroom per person in a conversation with Life.ru.
According to Radina, using just one towel is unacceptable.
There should be separate towels for the face, feet, and intimate hygiene.
There should also be a bath towel, and women with long hair should have a separate towel for their hair.
The hand towel, the cosmetologist clarified, can be shared.
To sum up, every person should have at least 4 towels, the doctor said.
As for the frequency of changing towels, it depends on the season and frequency of use.
In winter, it is enough to change towels once a week; in summer, in hot weather, daily changes may be required.
Towels need to be dried well to avoid the transfer of microflora from one part of the body to another, the cosmetologist recommended.
