No... I definitely washed it, but the towel smelled strange. I looked into why. 🔎 Our body's sebum, sweat, and dead skin cells get stuck to the towel. 💦 If you leave it wet like this, bacteria and mold can grow, leading to a musty smell. ㅠ ✅ Washing Instructions Use an alkaline detergent instead of a neutral detergent. ✨ This is because sebum and dead skin cells dissolve easily in alkaline water. Adding 1-2 tablespoons of baking soda will help with cleaning power and even dissolve grease. 60°C (140°F), 3 rinses, strong spin (You can also use the towel cycle.) Adding citric acid during the rinse cycle neutralizes any remaining alkaline substances, softening the fibers. ⚠️Caution 👉Do not use baking soda (washing soda) on animal fibers like wool, silk, and cashmere. ❌ 👉Do not use fabric softener. ❌ It reduces absorbency and shortens the life of the towel. Shortening (Absorbency🔻) ✅ Drying Instructions While it's best to put them in the dryer, you can also dry them on a drying rack using a dehumidifier or fan. Don't stack used towels ❌ Be sure to dry them flat, and place them in a well-ventilated laundry basket.😊 If you take care of them like this, you'll have fluffy towels with no musty odors! ✨ #Towel #세탁법 #세탁꿀팁 #생활꿀팁
