Arkwright Bleach Proof Salon Towels - Pack of 12 - Highly Absorbent, 100% Cotton, Quick Dry Spa Face Towel for Hair Stylist, Barber, Pedicure, and Esthetician, 16 x 27 in, Charcoal

These towels have to be the worst towels ever made. They looked great when they arrived last week. They were soft and fluffy and I had high hopes for them. The navy is a rich navy. So far so good...Then I went to wash them before using.... The towels immediately started disintegrating. There was clumps of towel in the washing machine. It was awful. It took a long time to hand remove the bulk of it, and then I had to use the self-cleaning feature in the washing machine. I thought maybe it was just manufacturing residue, so I decided to give the towels another chance. Same problem, except there was more pieces of towel in the washer. Normally, if there is excess loose fibers on any fabric it would come off in the first wash. But I've washed them three times now, just to make sure, and each time there's beena mess in the washing machine, with clumps of towel in the washing machine. Clumps of towel fall off on the floor after the towels are clean. It's like balls of towel pieces. In my entire life, I've never seen anything like this. What an utter disaster. Do not buy these towels. It almost looks like blue hail on the floor. Even going through the washing machine three times hasn't stopped the problem.This is not a fluke. I use real towels rather than paper towels whenever I can. We have puppies, so we wash our hands a lot, and sometimes use towels to wipe up dirty paw prints on the floor by the door. I bought 7 packages of 12 towels each so it's not just an isolated incident. It's a disaster. I've never seen anything like it.

I bought these for use as gym towels. I usually use each one just once before washing it. They aren't particularly thick or absorbent, but for my use, they're just fine.I've washed each of them 2-3 times, and they seem to be holding up well. There's no noticeable change in the color, and they're not fraying/coming apart.

I really wish I took a pic before I returned these because they were see through and very cheap. I sell embroidered hand towels, so I'm very familiar with a lot of brands at this price point, and these were horrendous. Very thin, rough and I just can't imagine them holding up in the wash.

When I open the box I know right away its really bad ,my hope was they will fluff up little bit after the wash , what a mistakeI washed them twice it was so much red colorIt’s stained my washer I don’t even think that’s gonna come offSame day I purchased Black towels from a different companyWhich I got six years ago , they still looks almost newThe name of the good towels good quality long-lasting are Utopia

The first batch of towels I ordered last year were great the second batch that just came in are a train wreck, falling apart in the wash and they won’t stop shedding lint. 4 washes in they are still shedding. If there’s anything left of them after the next wash maybe they will work as a cleaning rag. I do not recommend the gray towels

Little thinner than I’d hoped. The size of them makes up for that, slightly. Haven’t tested them for bleach, yet, so I hope it all works out!

When comparing them to the bleach proof towels you get from professional beauty supplier these are definitely thinner. They are similar in thickness to my bleach proof professional towels that have been washed for 10 years to give you an idea of quality. They do feel like they are cotton though and they are bleach proof.

I'm not impressed with these towels. They are so thin that they don't hold much water when drying my clients hair. I would find another brand.

Value for money smaller than expected but fine for around clients necks

They were pretty good quality

As advertised
