There are many different types of bath towel available these days. Types of bath towel are also important, in terms of changing look and feel of the house, on the other hand, change new house into home. Some people may consider bath towel to be an afterthought and they are usually overlooked, but the complete set and appropriate of colour schemes and pattern will make your bath room has inviting appearance to your visitors. However, sometimes it is unavoidable to use two different types and mismatched bath towel that may happen to you, so here is the guideline about types and usage of bath towels.

1. Wash clothes

This is the types of bath that has smallest size. They are generally made in small square shape in terrycloth, a textured cotton blend. The purpose of use is normally for people who want to lathering and gentle scrubbing. Due to this type of bath towel is very general and so intimate, many people, therefore, generally supply them on hand to accommodate to individual usage and you can easily find washcloth sold in bulk or lot, which cheaper so you can save money from buying them.

2. Hand towel

This is the next largest size of bath towel. You can see from its name that hand towel will primarily used or planed near bathroom basin. Hand towel are produced in variety of design, colour as well as cotton texture. By providing hand wash near bath room basin, you should provide a small hanger ring to locate a hand towel, this will be very convenient for your visitors to use it for drying and clean hand or even face after wash. However, by using hanger ring to carry hand towel, your visitor have to re-adjust its position after use in order to make it always look neat for the next visitor.

3. Bath mat

This type is commonly know as the towel that use to blot up water after bath or shower. They usually have larger size than the first two that has been mentioned above. Due to its large size and has more thickness than standard bath towel, they are designed to have better absorption and traction to correspond to the function of use. A bath mat can be used together with a set of wash cloth and hand towel, even though they have different colour and pattern. However, many people prefer to provide a complete set of bath mat offer to visitors and maybe match colour to shower curtain in some case.

4. Bath sheet

This is the largest type of bath towel available in the market, which are varied from 6 feet long or more. The basic function of use of this type of bath towel also same as bath mat, to blot up water after bath or shower, but this type generally provided in hotels to offer to their guest. It is quite rare to see people using bath sheet at home due to its large size, which is required extra cabinet in bath room to store them. The reason that we can see many hotel use them because some guests take a bath for a long time and some people have shower many times during the day so the standard sized may saturated with water quickly, then the hotel have to change a bath towel for them very often and that's take cost.
