Nothing feels better than wrapping yourself in a soft, fluffy towel after a shower — but over time, even the best towels can turn stiff, rough, or flat. Whether you're managing towels at a villa, hotel, gym, or simply at home, here's how to keep your towels feeling luxurious for longer.
1. Wash with Gentle Detergent
Using too much detergent is one of the most common reasons towels become hard and scratchy. Excess soap builds up in the fibers, reducing softness and absorbency.
Towel care tips:
Use a mild, eco-friendly laundry detergent.
Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach unless necessary.
Add an extra rinse cycle to fully remove residue.
2. Wash Towels Separately
Avoid mixing towels with other laundry items like jeans, zippers, or synthetic fabrics. These can cause friction damage, snagging the delicate towel fibers.
Why it matters:
Towels washed alone get cleaner.
It reduces lint transfer.
They stay fluffier longer.
3. Use Warm or Cool Water
Hot water can break down towel fibers, especially cotton. Instead, use warm or cool water settings to protect your towels from damage while still getting a deep clean.
Bonus: Lower temperatures are better for Bali’s energy efficiency and eco-conscious living.
4. Skip the Iron
Ironing your towels crushes the loops that create softness and fluffiness. It also reduces absorbency. Try not to iron your towels to keep towels soft and fluffy.
What to do instead:
Let towels air-dry in the shade to preserve texture.
Or use a dryer on low heat with dryer balls to keep them soft and puffy.
5. Shake and Fluff Before Drying
One of the easiest towel care tricks? Give your towels a good shake before drying. This loosens the fibers, increases airflow, and maintains volume.
Pro tips:
Shake before and after drying.
Don’t over-dry in the machine — it leads to roughness.
