Choosing the Right Towels: A Simple Guide for Every Household

Picking the perfect towels for your bathroom isn't just about color or price — it's about comfort, durability, and how well they suit your daily lifestyle.

🛁 Types of Towels You Should Know

• Bath Towels: Ideal for post-shower drying. Sizes range from 60x120 cm to 75x150 cm.
• Hand Towels: Smaller, used near sinks. Usually 40x60 cm to 45x75 cm.
• Face Towels / Washcloths: Gentle on skin, great for facial use or travel.
• Bath Sheets: Larger than bath towels, luxurious and more absorbent (90x180 cm).

🌿 Which Fabric Is Best?

When shopping online or offline, towel fabric makes all the difference. Here's what to look for:

• Cotton Towels: Soft, breathable, and great for daily use. Look for 100% combed cotton or Egyptian cotton.
• Bamboo-Cotton Blends: Antibacterial and eco-friendly, though slightly more premium.
• Microfiber Towels: Lightweight, quick-drying — great for gym or travel, not as plush.

📏 Understanding GSM – What It Means for You

GSM (Grams per Square Meter) tells you how thick and absorbent a towel is:

• 300–400 GSM: Lightweight, fast-drying. Ideal for gym or summer use.
• 400–600 GSM: Balanced softness and absorption. Best for daily home use.
• 600–800 GSM: Premium towels – dense, spa-like, and luxurious.

🛍️ Towel Buying Tips for Indian Homes

• Choose 400–600 GSM cotton towels for the best value.
• Always read product details — size, GSM, and wash instructions.
• Opt for double-stitched hems for longer durability.
• Stock at least 2–3 towels per person at home.
