Choosing a sauna sheet depends on several factors, including your personal preference, budget, and quality of the material. Here are some tips to help you choose:
1. Material: Sauna sheets are generally made of cotton, or microfiber. Cotton is soft, absorbent and breathable, making it a popular choice.
Microfibers are soft and light, but may not absorb as well as cotton, but their washing resistance especially if dyed will be better than cotton.
Dyed cotton holds up less well to washing at high temperatures (or you should consider an Indanthren dye, resistant to chlorine and the sun, but the prices are soaring).
The second option for a cotton sauna towel whose color would last a long time would simply be to opt for light colors (pastel tones).
The dyed microfiber will hold up very well over time despite many washes, even if you use certain cleaning products containing chlorine.
2. Absorption: Make sure you choose a sauna sheet that is capable of absorbing moisture effectively. This will help you stay comfortable and fully enjoy your sauna experience.
For this, the sauna sheet must be hydrophilic, meaning that it will be able to perfectly absorb humidity.
Conversely, massage centers may prefer non-hydrophilic sheets, something possible with microfiber, this will be perfect for wrapping yourself after an oil massage, while avoiding wiping off the oil and losing its benefits.
3. Size: Sauna sheets come in different sizes, so make sure you choose a sheet that fits your body size and the size of your sauna. You want it to be big enough to wrap around you comfortably, but not so big that it drags on the floor.
Many saunas now adopt sizes of sauna sheets that are not very common but which best correspond to the use in hammam saunas, these are sauna sheets in 50x150 cm, not too wide but long enough to then wrap the body.
The sauna being an inherently hot place, sheets that are too large are uncomfortable for users.
4. Care: Check the washing and care instructions before purchasing your sauna sheet.
Make sure it's easy to maintain and maintains its softness and absorbency after multiple washes.
If you opt for inexpensive cotton sheets, they are often woven with low-end cotton (open end cotton thread), which over time will become rough to the touch.
5. Budget: Set a budget before you start shopping for your sauna sheet. Prices can vary depending on the quality of the material and brand, so make sure you find a balance between quality and price.
In summary, choose a sauna sheet that is made of a comfortable, absorbent material, fits your size and budget, and is easy to care for.
