Comment on I feel like I need a separate body towel (big towel), and 3 other small towels for hair, face, and hands. 4 towels in total. Is that normal?

  You using 4 towels isn’t hurting anyone anymore than me using one towel does.

  I can only guess where the idea of wastefulness is such an alien concept that it’s completely overlooked here.

    Do you not wash and reuse towels…?

      To be devil’s advocate, it’s still 3 times embodied carbon of a small towel, that doesn’t need to hurt the planet. And you’ll probably replace towels every year or so.

      I know it’s nitpicking and annoying to point out such a small thing when people are buying 3year cruise tickets. But it’s still true.

        I’m supposed to be replacing towels every year?! I bought top of the line Target towels about 8 years ago and they’re fine… am I missing something?

      Yes, apparently four times less than some though.
