It's sufficient to wash your hat once every two months on average, or three times every season, if you don't wear it throughout the entire fall and winter seasons. The majority of them are simply cleaned in the washing machine without sacrificing quality; always remember to read the care label, though.It is advised to hand wash caps twice a year in cold water to prevent visor stains.

5. Bedsheets vs. pillowcases

Dust accumulated on bedding is home to bacteria, spores, viruses, and other dangerous microbes. Constant inhalation increases the risk of allergic responses, respiratory problems, and irritation of the mucosa. Bed mites feed on dead human skin cells. It is preferable to wash bedding once every ten days to prevent such problems.Pillowcases require more frequent replacement than bed linens and duvet coverings, so keep that in mind. Acne and other skin rashes can form as a result of bacteria, sebum, and makeup residue building up on them.
