How often do you wash your bra?

judEve · ‎11-06-2014

I no longer work, rarely do anything to sweat, or get dirty. I'm chronically ill so don't get out much or do much.

I usually wear my clothes and pajamas twice before washing (unless around smokers or other bad smells). I hand wash all my bras and usually wash them out after wearing twice. I have different bras I occasionally sleep in and when I do I wash them after wearing twice as well. I'm wondering how many days others wear their bras until they wash them. Am I washing mine out too often?

On days I go to the gym, obviously I have to throw that bra in the wash. On days when I just go to work and come home or if I'm not doing much around the house, I get 2 wears out of them (but not 2 days in a row) before washing.

No set schedule, hand wash when needed.

I think you're doing fine. Body oils, and skin cells are probably about you have to contend with. So l think you are doing good.

machine wash on the "hand wash" cycle after each wearing.

hang to dry.

I have to wear a bra 24/7. I toss one in the hamper every other day and wash them with my other clothes in the washer then hang dry.

Sports bras...after every workout.

Others...whenever I feel like they need it.

Routinely every 2 or 3 wearings. When I attend exercise class, launder bra daily. I always launder them in mesh bag and air dry; never put in dryer. That way they last much longer.

I wear Rhonda Shear bras when I am just at home and I wash them after one wearing. If I wear a good bra all day then I wash it but if I only wear it for a few hours and take it off then I wear it a couple of more times.
