Drying Towels after one use

[Thisoldheartofmine]

Flat over 2 floors. Bathroom on first level. Clothes airer over stairwell on second level.
Partner multiple use of towels throughout day .He has eczema and wets the towel to put on skin.
I realise,now I'm writing this ,that this is the nub of the problem.
But still ,how to dry a towel after one use in shower/bath ?
Is a heated towel rail the answer ?
I guess one trip in the morning to hang towels upstairs and trip in evening to bring them down will be the answer.
Also guess I'm lazy and low standards .

Ask him to use face flannels instead of towels.

You've answered your own question I think. Hang towel up wherever it can dry and get it when it's dry.

Do you mean he soaks the towel to use as a wet wrap? If so you need something other than towels.

Get him to use a camping / micro towel instead. They dry quickly.

Muslin cloth or a hammam towel would dry more quickly.

Mmm ,he definitely needs to use something else .He's very touchy about the subject.Goodness knows why.
i think I'll try the camping towels as we have a couple.

@Houseplanter I've just been reading about wet wrapping .I'll point him in that direction .Do you have experience of wet wrapping ?
It sounds pretty awful ,but I'm sure it's worth it if it calms the itch .
The bit that sounds trickiest is controlling the amount of water you put on the wrap to make it damp but not wet .

I sometimes have to wet wrap. Towels are not ideal as I find they're too thick and hold too much water - you want the cloth to just be damp. Thin muslin or cotton is better and also will dry faster afterwards, solving your towel problem! I use old 100% cotton muslins from when the DCs were babies.

@Xiaoxiong thank you so much ,that's really helpful.
I've ordered some hemmed muslin squares .

@Thisoldheartofmine

not really, just wrong it out in the sink, easier once you get the much thinner towels, or use a spray bottle.

And yes I agree it will be tricky to control the amount of water if you use a towel or a flannel. A muslin is much easier to wring out most of the water.

A spray bottle is a genius idea though, thanks for that @Just4thisthreadtoday as I haven't done that before!!

My only experience is with children many years ago.. I have no idea if it's still recommended or not but it did seem effective.

I agree muslin is a far better idea.

I find all sorts of uses for muslin squares.
