Just wear black socks, they never get dirty! In fact, the longer you wear them, the stronger they get!
-
Perfect timing for college students!!!
-
That was a long freaking video and it hardly answered the question D:
-
When should i wash my fur, im a dog.
-
I got some sort of genital zits in college and I went to my Dr. in a panic, thinking I had picked up an STD. Dr. said it was a reaction to my towel being hung in our damp dorm shower stalls. He said it was more commonly encountered in tropical conditions. Yay, no STD's. Boo hiss communal stalls.
-
If there's no visible signs of soiling on my clothes a smell test always suffices.
-
he never answered the question
-
He goes off subject here a bit I don't wanna no why sweat smells I just wanna no how often I should wash my clothes haha
-
right after I remove my clothes and underwares I will not wear it again until it is washed and dried
-
Skip to 3:30 at least to get to the point. What an annoying video.
-
sweating out 1 liter / day, that sounds a little difficult for, say, when you live in a very cold, chilly country ^^; easy in hot countries or in a sauna, yes. but unlikely in a cold country.
-
I just wanted to know how often to clean my clothes, he taught me the whole periodic table...
-
Underwear / Vests / Tees / Socks - wash every single day. That shit is nasty and should not be worn more than once. Jeans - once a week Pjs - twice a week Towels / Bedding - once a week Shirts - every other day or everyday if you're a really sweaty person or don't wear a tee that covers your armpits inside
-
I wash my towels after every use
-
All I really needed to hear is that the smell test works!
-
i wash my jeans like weekly to a couple days
-
Humans with normal immune systems, by that I mean regular people who don't work in any risky professions, probably shouldn't worry too much about anything other than smell. Isn't all the washing something that contributes to the rise of allergies and immune sensitivity related illnesses?
-
So the video starts like after 3 minutes
-
What about bed sheets?
-
After watching 90 seconfs of this video, I paused it and went and took nice 30 min hot bath with a lot of shampoo. Here I am watching the remaining of this video in my pygamas.
