How Often Should You Wash Your Towels And At What Temperature?

Dr Lisa Ackerley, aka The Hygiene Doctor, says the frequency of washing depends on the person using the bath towel. “I’m afraid there isn’t a hard and fast rule,” she says. “If someone is very good at cleaning themselves and leaves the towel looking clean, they could probably get away with several uses. But if they are not very good and the towel looks dirty afterwards, they might want to wash it after every use.”
