When people get done showering or bathing, their first instinct is to start thoroughly drying themselves with a towel. After all, surely leaving yourself damp and gross just inviting a swarm of bacteria? Well, while towel-drying yourself is perfectly fine, you probably want to start doing so a little differently.
A lot of people use towels like their skin is cheese that needs grating – which unsurprisingly, is not a great way to go about things. Towelling too aggressively can damage your skin – so it’s best to gently pat yourself dry.
