Why I Prefer to Wash My Underwear by Hand.

Why I Prefer to Wash My Underwear by Hand.

Have you ever had the unpleasant surprise of finding your support- favorite throat completely rolled by the drum of your washing machine?

I do.

So, in order not to have to suffer such a trauma again (Oohh, the superficial girl!), I made the wise decision to wash my underwear by hand and frankly, they are damaged much less quickly.

You will tell me, "Yes, but the machine takes less time" and time is well known, it's money! Maybe, unless you're smart...

Water, Detergent or Aleppo Soap

Why I Prefer to Wash My Underwear by Hand.

In the evening, we put in a basin, or its sink, our underwear to soak in water with a drop of detergent or using Aleppo soap and let them soak overnight.

In the morning, rinse with cold water and presto, clean underwear that smells good!

Ok, but they will take twice as long to dry , they are not wrung out! Except, if we are even smarter and we eat salad!

But what does the salad have to do with this story?

And a Salad Spinner

Why I Prefer to Wash My Underwear by Hand.

It's actually not a salad but a salad spinner (Amazon link).

Let me explain, once rinsed, we can put our underwear to wring inside. A few cranks later and, thanks to centrifugal force, our underwear is no longer dripping with water and ready to dry. This also applies to our men's swimsuits and boxer shorts.

Since I wash my underwear by hand, they last much longer, so I have to buy new ones less often. And you ? Do you wash your underwear in the washing machine or by hand? Come tell us about it in the comments.
