How many times do you use your towel before washing it?

Yeah, never grundies with PJ's - makes my bum too hot.

PJ's/nighties every day clean on, menopause doesn't allow for anything else.
Towels, I like towels to be rough as they dry me off quicker, so max 3 uses before that goes but it's normally 2.

Do they also not wash before using towels?

I wash my towels ( just me) after one use. I wear clean pants with pj’s so change them twice a week. Bedding is fortnightly.

New PJs every day towels are washed twice a week

Some people don’t wear pants with PJ’s.

Pyjamas usually 1-2 nights. Sometimes longer if I shower right before bed each night.
Towels - errmm. Probably every 2-3 weeks? They don't get particularly dirty or smell?!
Bedding about once a month 😂

I struggle to get through washing on a weekly basis as it is, can't imagine trying to fit bloody bedding and towels in every few days on top of the hundreds of loads I seem to do for my family of 4!

I don't have any particular schedule for pyjamas and towels. I think I usually wear 2, or sometimes 3, pairs of pyjamas over the course of a week. Towels are usually washed when I can't remember the last time I washed them, so probably about every 2 or 3 weeks ish!

Genuinely ... why would you wash your towel after 3-4 days??

It's drying a CLEAN body.... and we are hopefully looking after the environment

I aim for every 7-10 days, and don't worry if it ends up being 2 weeks. Never smell... why would they?

I agree, so much excessive washing on Mumsnet. I’m sure people don’t wash as frequently in real life!
For me, pjs are changed after 2 wears; towels about every fortnight (hand towels & tea towels weekly); bedding 3-4 weeks.

Bath towels live on a heated towel rail and are washed weekly on a Wednesday, the matching hand towels at the same time. I’m off on a Wednesday so DP puts them on to wash after his shower before work, and then I put them through the dryer or hang them out - can’t wait for line-drying weather.

I sleep in a nightshirt/nightdress (plus pants) and wear a fresh one each night. DP wears either boxers or naked in bed.

Bed stripped and changed every Friday - love fresh sheets for the weekend! If I ever win the lottery I will have a person come and strip/change the bed (and do the laundry) every single day.

I'd like to know that too but in all the years this question was raised on MN, I've not been given an answer which made sense.

I don’t count. Definitely a few times. And the kids are always using ‘our’ towels so we share I guess! The horror! I don’t really see the problem as the things a towel dries are clean!

You change your pjs every day? Why? I change mine every Sunday but I don’t sleep in them I sleep naked as I get too hot. Towels are changed usually every 3/4 days unless they need washing sooner

I sleep naked so only put pjs on after a shower or bath in the evening so I will wear them for 2 evenings before changing them. DH sleeps in boxers, clean every night after shower. Kids have clean pjs every night. Towels are used for 5-7 days before being washed. All bedsheets washed and changed every Friday.

Does nobody worry about using so much water and energy for things which are perfectly useable? I wash our towels every couple of weeks unless they look dirty or smell unpleasant before that. I hang them outside or in a room with an open window until properly dry after each use
so they don't smell normally.

I don't wear PJ's/nightwear.

Towels probably after about 3-4 showers, but they get put straight on the heated towel rail to dry, they don't sit around damp. They are line dried so get washed on a good day for drying, more than how many showers I've had!

they never ever smell.

Pjs every day
Bedding once a week..share bed with JRT !
Towels every 3-4 days.

Pjs maybe weekly but I sometimes wear them on a weekend morning for a few hours doing housework etc so sometimes it's only 3 or 4 days.

Towels maybe once a fortnight max but sometimes after a week.

Bedding probably once a month but we both wear full PJs so no skin touches the bed really.

Once

Pj's after every wear as I'm peri and get night sweats! I have several, have to.

Towels every few days, depends really.

Serious question. Why? Are you not clean after you've showered or bathed? What's happening to your towels that they need washing after you've used them?
Such a waste of resources.

Twice towels and pjs. Underwear and tops and trousers once.

I just sniff it and if it smells musty or not like washing powder any more I put it in the laundry bin.

I don't know why but "a pyjama" has tickled me

Why are people wearing clean pyjamas every day? I shower before bed but i do wear pants so change nightwear about every 5/7 days and sometimes i keep them on part of the day. I wash towels when i think about it and there's two of us and we share. I know people get horrified by that but when you think of what else we share it's ridiculous to be bothered by towel sharing.
