For breast and skin health, it is recommended to wash bras after wearing them 2-4 times. [사진=게티이미지뱅크]Women’s bras are always troublesome underwear when washing. The biggest concern is whether it should be washed and changed every time like underwear, even though it is underwear worn every day. If you wash your clothes frequently, you may not know how often to wash them properly.
Experts say that wired bras don’t need to be washed as often as panties do. If you wear it once and wash it repeatedly, the shape of the bra will quickly get out of shape, which can interfere with wearing or cause discomfort to your breasts.
For breast and skin health, it is most appropriate to wash bras after wearing them 2-4 times. This does not mean that you should wear one bra two to four times a day in a row. Although there may be individual differences, it means that it is time to wash several bras if you wear them 2-4 times. For example, if you wear bra A once and then take it off, wear bra B the next day, and wear bra C the other day, you do not have to wash the bra every time. .
Everyday Health, an American health media, recently introduced the frequency and method of bra washing through the explanation of Dr. Mokaya, an American dermatologist and author of the book ‘Live & Look Younger’. “Depending on the person, it may vary, but generally recommends washing bras after wearing them 2 to 4 times,” Dr. Mokaya said. Explained.
Bras are in direct contact with the skin, and sweat, dust, and various bacteria stick to them, so washing is essential for hygiene. In addition to skin health, wearing a bra that eliminates odor and smells fresh is good for women’s comfort and confidence.
However, if you sweat more than usual due to increased activity or seasonal factors, or if you use a lot of lotion or perfume and often wear your bra, it is better to wash it more often than this. In addition, if the skin around the breast is frequently infected or irritated, wash it more often to maintain a clean bra.
When washing, it is best to hand wash using mild laundry detergent and cold water. Detergents, which can cause skin irritation, should be rinsed several times to ensure that no residue is left behind. If you use a washing machine, place your bra in a mesh net to keep it from losing its shape. When drying, the correct way is to hang it in a high place to dry.
Dr. Mokaya warned, “If the bra is not washed at the correct cycle, there is a risk of folliculitis or Candida intertrigo because various germs such as sweat, dead skin cells, dust, and bacteria accumulate.”
According to the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), folliculitis is a skin infection that occurs in the hair follicles and can look like acne. Candida athlete’s foot is a disease in which skin folds are infected by yeast. If you notice these signs of infection, you should wash your bra more often and see a dermatologist.
