I wash them after each use because you are drying your private parts and I don't care how clean you think you are I do not want to dry my face with the part of the towel my husband dried his ass with.
Yuck!!
why do you share a towel with your husband?
I use bath towels for about a week before washing. Hand towels I change way more frequently. I think washing a bath towel after each use is an obscene waste of water and energy.
edit: I usually think about changing the towels out after about 4-5 days, and don't bother to do it right away. Also, I have a separate one I dry my face with, then wrap it around my hair.
Aren't there smaller towels used to dry your face when you wash it? I never wash my face during a bath or shower. Washing my face is a separate operation done at a sink. When I actually do it. My face doesn't really get that dirty either.
The only part of me that really gets dirty are my hands, and maybe my arms, but I use a waterless cleaner and paper towels when that happens.
Im with the OP 4 to 5 times a week. And over stuffing a washing machine can make it perform poorly. I pat my buttocks and nuts dry and snap any pubes that may havd gotten on it so I dont encounter them the next time I use it. I dont dry the crack of my ass
Back to the washing of towels. When I stick my face into a clean towel it better smell like bleach or flowers or give me some indication that it is clean. I used to over stuff my washer until I started noticing my towels had an unclean smell to tthem. When I lightened the fload and allowed water to properly flow through the tub of the machine the smel went away.

So you use one towel to dry your face when you get out of the shower then another for the rest? Ok. Well in my house if I were to do that I would have 8 towels in my bathroom. Nope can't do it. I don't want ass on my face whether it be mind or anyone else so we wash them after each use.

When I am in the shower I wash everything. Why get out only to mess up the sink?

so you have 4 people in your house and don't keep track of whose towel is whose? I am picky about my towel being MINE. Like in a hotel, or whatever where they all look the same, I make sure I know which one mine is. As long as it is mine, I don't care much about what part of me it has been on. I'm very picky about hand towels though. I don't like using one that's already been used. No one washes their hands well enough. If you are just going to rub the last person's germs back onto your hands, what's the point in even washing them?
I'm the only female in my house so I'm the only one with a dedicated face/hair towel.
