1. How to Identify and Choose High
Quality Bath Towels

Steps
1. 1
Understand what makes a towel a
good towel. For starters, towels for
different purposes will benefit from
different fabrics, whether they're for
drying your body or drying your
dishes. Things to keep in mind
include:
Absorbency is created by maximizing
surface area. Cotton towels are best
2. for hands and bodies, while linen
towels are best for dishes and
glassware.
Terry is the most absorbent of all
weaves. It is an ideal towel for hand
and body drying as it is looped both
sides, thus increasing its surface
area.
Crash linen is a combination of linen,
cotton and rayon that works really
well for drying dishes. It helps to
increase the evaporation rate.
Damask linen works really well for
drying glasses and dishes where lintfree results matter.
Flax derived linen is super absorbent,
and strong. It is naturally resistant to
bacteria, won't leave lint on
glassware, and absorbs 20 percent of
its own weight in water.
3. 2
Consider the content of the
towel fabric. High quality towels
are usually made out of fine, long
cotton fiber. Some of the more
expensive towels are made from
Egyptian or Brazilian cotton. While
hard to find, Supima cotton is
another excellent choice of long
fiber cotton that is grown in the
United States.
Do your own testing. In store, try
feeling and looking at towels to see if
they match up to your needs and
wants.
Look closely. Do the fibers stand up
like grass in a garden? That's a good
4. sign! If they're flat as a tack, they
won't feel very good or work that well.
Feel them. Are they soft? Or are they
rough? If the towel has a soft, velvety
feel and a bit of weight to it, it is good
quality. If the towel is scratchy, or
feels like canvas, it is low quality
(meaning, don't buy the dollar-store
towels!).
Check the size. If you're tall or large,
look for bath sheets which are bigger
than the average towel size and
make drying yourself quickly a lot
easier.

Shop around.
Look for the best deals. Decide how
much you want to pay. If you want
the very best quality, it will cost you
more. On the plus side though, more
5. expensive towels will also last longer,
so you save money in the long run
and don't have to replace them as
often.
Find towels that are the same color
as your bathroom decor. Keep in
mind that colored towels will
eventually fade. White towels can
always be bleached if needed to
whiten them back up.
