Review on Cacala Turkish Hand Towel Set of 4 - Quick Dry, Prewashed, Soft Feel – Decorative Peshtemal Cotton Towel for Face, Hair, Gym, Yoga, Dishcloth, Bath and Kitchen – 23 x 36 (Black) by Monique Martin

Another item 'where they've been my whole life'! Not sure how I found out about these towels but I probably bought new towels and they turned up. After looking at several different listings for these types of towels and reading mostly rave reviews, I decided to buy a pack and try them out. I was surprised. First, they absorb water when they dry off after a shower or when they dry their hands (or dishes, if so). Second, they dry very quickly. I can often dry my hands when preparing meals, and when I eat, the towel is practically dry. No more sticky, long damp terry towels. I now have 11 of these towels (plus a bath towel for myself). When folded all 11 towels fit in the 2 terry cloth drawers leaving room for 4 extra towels that I order. I intend to replace all my terry towels with this style of Turkish towel. I can keep a whole house in a drawer. I love these towels. Plus, they get softer with every wash. I wash in cold water and just toss these towels in an empty dryer for a few minutes so they don't wrinkle and then dry them on a hanger. They dry quickly on a hanger. Any remaining creases will come out with use, probably due to moisture). I haven't had any shrinkage from the brands I've bought. I would recommend buying towels with braided or twisted fringes. Otherwise, the fringes will fall off (the fringes cannot be trimmed as they serve as a border and complete the towel). I recommend this brand and another brand (both with twisted fringes) that I will check out next (also found a 4 pack for the same price @ https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B077ZG53C2/ref = ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00 ?ie=UTF8&psc=1I will be donating my terry towels to the shelter as these towels are here to stay!, a paper bag if desired, while a terry beach towel will require a separate backpack that can also be used as a light blanket/thread while watching tv or whatever. Those are great towels.!
