Everyday Bras vs. Sports Bras: Washing Habits and Care
A recent survey involving 200 women revealed interesting insights into bra cleaning habits. Since most women do not wear the same bra every day, about one-third reported that they wash their bras every two weeks. The remaining participants indicated that they clean their bras even less frequently. This practice can be manageable if you own multiple bras, allowing you to rotate them daily. Regular rotation helps maintain their shape and appearance, preventing them from stretching out over time.
However, the same cannot be said for sports bras. Due to their specific function and the intensity of activities they are designed for, sports bras require more diligent care. They absorb sweat and moisture during workouts, which can lead to the growth of bacteria and unpleasant odors. Therefore, it is essential to wash sports bras after each use to ensure hygiene and prolong their lifespan.
