How Do I Care for My Equa Hot Yoga Hand Towel?Updated 15 days ago

To help maintain the absorbency, grip, and performance of your Equa Hot Yoga Hand Towel, we recommend machine washing it in cold water with like colors. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry, and do not bleach.

To preserve the towel's moisture-activated grip, avoid using dryer sheets, fabric softeners, or detergents that contain fabric softener, as these products can leave a residue that makes the towel feel slick.

The dyes used in Equa towels are free from heavy metals, azo compounds, and lead. Because of this, deeper colors may require several separate wash cycles to remove excess dye. Some color transfer may continue beyond the initial washes, so we recommend using caution when using the towel with light-colored mats or while wearing light-colored clothing.

After practice, avoid rolling a damp Equa Hot Yoga Hand Towel together with your mat. Allowing the towel to dry completely before storage will help maintain its performance and prevent unwanted moisture transfer.

Please note that some shrinkage may occur if the towel is washed in warm water or dried using high heat. For best results, wash cold and dry on low heat or air dry.
