How To Dry Off After Washing With A Bidet

[@bobbyvee8941]

I'm a man in my 70's and I just installed my first bidet a little over a year ago. There are not a whole lot of things I cherish in this world, but let me tell you, this is at the top of my very short list. If you don't have one, GET IT NOW. It will be the most rewarding thing you've ever done for yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@kathryncooper4001]

I went to school in France, so am familiar with the use of a bidet. I also, it seems, have a bad reaction to the chemicals used in T.P. production. My own 1950s bathroom is so tiny there's just no room to add bidet equipment to the toilet, so I went in another direction 10 years ago when I decided to do my part to protect the environment. I made some 8 x 8 flannel squares which are stored in a basket next to the commode. I use a turkey baster to clean with first, then the squares, which I put into a sealed plastic collection container after use. I have saved a fortune at the grocery store, and I imagine I've saved a few trees along the way. My daughter thinks I'm an escapee from a hippie commune.

Actually cold water ( not freezing water ) is better for the anus than normal water... never wash with hot water... why ? because the anus is already very hot and more heat is bad for it....take it from a person who used hot water for some years and had an uncomfortable episode that i got for doing it....

[@babybirdhome]

@@JacobChacko3008 I agree. Here’s the weird thing about Americans and bidets. Let me pose just one question to someone who doesn’t understand them or who finds them off-putting. I’m going to make dinner for you. But first, I’m goint to go poop. I’ll give you a choice before I make your dinner for you. 1. Wash my hands in the sink, or 2. Just rub my hands a couple times with a dry paper towel. You can only pick one of the above options before I make your dinner. I know which one you’re going to pick - it’s the same one I would pick. And that’s what a bidet is compared to toilet paper. The only thing that’s actually weird or off-putting is that, as a nation, we still seem to prefer toilet paper! Why??? I’d rather be clean.

It's just still insane to me that everyone created a self perpetuating madness around TP like that..all TP is made domestically, it's cheaper than importing obviously, unless a factory exploded it was never going anywhere. but everyone is told there's a shortage, goes full Greek myth and ensures the prophecy by creating one, first happened in Au then repeated everywhere haha It would have made me lose faith in the intelligence of humanty, but anti 5G lunatics and anti vaxxers had already filled that quota by that time hahah

I keep a little toilet paper for company. I've also started using cloth hankies instead of klennex (keep one box for company). Use cloth knapkins and am working on using cloth for cleaning instead of paper towels. I've enen crocheted dishrags and I like them better than sponges.

We went a little more upscale when we went for the bidet system in the two bathrooms of our new house. Our heinie washers have various settings from gentle upside down rain to ai-yi-yi blast-off ramjet, straight spot stream to oscillating, adjustable seat temp, water temp, and hot air dry temp. The hot air dryer doesn't do a very good job all by itself but a quick blot with a little TP, way less than you would use for wiping, gets all the drips and drops, and the hot air blower then gets it the rest of the way dry. We will never go back to pooping and smearing with TP, like a savage. The bar has been raised. Our standards are now higher.

[@cynthiacrawford6147]

I feel the same about cups and discs for women. Hearing your post has seriously made me look into bidets. Thanks.

[@growleym504]

@@cynthiacrawford6147 You will love it. Hands-free, or nearly hands-free hygeine, absolutely rocks. Toto is the brand to beat, but they are a bit expensive. The wife likes hers, with the remote control. I prefer the push button control arm right there next to the seat. Either way is fine. We looked at all-in-one toilet/bidet systems but the problem is when one component goes out and is no longer manufactured, the whole setup is done, and that is a lot of money down the drain. The bidet seat mounted on a conventional toilet is in our view, much better. Good bidet seats start at around $300 and at the $600 to $900 range, it just doesn't get any better. There are very inexpensive options that basically are just water nozzle and a valve hooked to the water supply, and no electronics or adjustment or heating, just squirt squirt squirt, and they are worth considering if you are on a severe budget. Under $100, there are lots of models out there. But cold water, down THERE, to me that is not luxury. In the winter it would be punishment. If there are men in your house, they will appreciate having the long oval toilet bowl and seat, rather than the more compact round bowl. Costs a few bucks more, but worth it. Be sure and read all the reviews before you pull the trigger on a model that you don't like. On the face of it, I think vendors would be reluctant to accept returns.

I will never, ever go back to TP. I always try to time my business to make sure I get to do it at home now. I hate going in public places or other people’s homes now and it used to be the other way around. I wish I had switched decades ago! Toto is the brand they mostly use in Japan, and let me tell you, the Japanese know what they’re doing. I had doubts going in but they were as quickly removed as the Klingons orbiting Uranus. And for drying, honestly sometimes I don’t even use the air dryer - everything is so clean and there’s really not that much water left over afterwards. I live in the desert so I’m pretty much dry by the time I reach the hallway anyway.

I bought a bidet during the pandemic and love it. Can't not use it anymore. However, I have found that the bidet doesn't always remove all the "residue" and that I'll sometimes still have to follow up with a couple wipes of toilet paper after patting dry with the towel. So, I guess it's reduced my toilet paper use a bit, but ultimately, for me, results in a better and more comfortable clean overall than toilet paper alone.

That's what it does, _reduce_ the amount of Toilet paper used. Toilet paper is still needed, bidets won't make it obsolete.

[@Gabri3lRocha]

In the beginning after I finished using the bidet I would do a few test wipes to see if there’s anything left and there wasn’t. Trust me I’m very through when it comes to cleaning. Make sure your water pressure knob and 100 percent opened and then make sure your bidet water pressure is 100 percent as well. Then make sure you are constantly adjusting your bum at different angles to make sure you hit ever spot. Works for me every time

[@michaelb.4372]

Yeah, I noticed occasional residue early on, but learned to improve my technique. I start with low low pressure and move my butt around a bit. Then I go to high pressure to power blast all the nooks and crannies. Then another low pressure, final rinse. 100% clean all the time now. Since I don't have room for a separate hamper to place used cloth towels, I use TP to dry. But even so, my TP usage is drastically reduced from before I had bidets.

[@TheKajunkat]

I had trouble at first also. I figured out I wasn't washing long enough and needed to move around some. I went from 5 seconds to around 15 to 20 and added a few sways and wiggles and its really clean now. I still use a couple of squares of tp for a check wipe but rarely find anything anymore.

The last mill I worked at would send 35-40 rail cars of chips a week to Longview Fiber in western Washington. We were a small mill back then, so I cannot imagine the sheer volume of chips they received from the other mills that were still running at the time. I guess my point is trees are a renewable resource. When properly thinned they will have a better outcome than the wildfires that plague the west. (Burned trees lose value quickly)

[@dkhnova]

@@tt600pch Still, it's not correct to say that paper is a byproduct of the lumber industry. The majority of the raw material needed to make paper comes from whole trees. The less paper we use, the fewer trees we'll need to cut down. Water and trees are both renewable, but water is much more environmentally friendly (and also less expensive) to deliver to your house than paper. Thus the benefit of using water and little (or no) paper to clean your butt after using the toilet.

Hi there! Thank you for your comment! I ended up using my roommates old bidet for a period of time and really loved it. I purchased many tushy towels and simply adore them. I'm still trying to figure out how to effectively pre-wash them before I put them in the washing machine as I would love to use them exclusively instead of toilet paper, but don't feel totally comfortable throwing them directly into the washing machine at my folk's place. Love the bidet though. So simple, easy, and effective. @@Kcseales

Yes but where does the bidet water comes from? I don't want to wash with tank or toilet water.... can it come from the sink?

[@HelloTUSHY]

Hi Cindy! Great question! TUSHY gets its (cool) water from the water source from the wall, the same water you brush your teeth with. You could totally drink from TUSHY, which would be weird, but hey, you do you! While the warm water comes from a hookup to your sink as long as it's not too far away from your toilet. Once it's hooked up you'll be able to adjust the temperature of the water hitting your tush.

[@hartmanartsource]

I love using my bidet, however because of previous (pretty bad) hemorrhoids during and after pregnancy, I don’t get completely clean with just the bidet. There is still something left in the “nooks and crannies.” I tend to use damp (not wet) small washcloths that get me clean and dry enough after the bidet.

I don't think the bidet gets the tushy clean enough to just pat dry. Or am I wrong?

[@HelloTUSHY]

Hi Yolanda! Sounds like you need to spray for longer and use the combination of the angle of your body and the nozzle adjuster to get the desired result. Maybe even a little wiggle int he booty. It may take a second to get the right flow or outcome, but feel free to keep trying!

[@HelloTUSHY]

Then you can pat dry with our reusable, ultra-comfy Tushy Towels or our super sustainable Bamboo Toilet Paper. Using TUSHY dramatically reduces the amount of TP needed by about 80%. Endless, irritating wiping turns into just a few nice pats when you’re using TUSHY!

[@Point_Particle]

Ok, without soap, fecal bacteria will not simply rinse off of your butt with a little water. As soon as you pat your cheeks dry, you've transferred trace amounts of fecal matter to the towel, and it will transfer to whatever else that towel touches, next. Keep that in mind the next time you pick up, or put down, one of these butt-towels. A single use, before tossing it into a dedicated bin with a surface that can be effectively sterilized, would be about the only way I can see to use a towel in this manner without exposing yourself to E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, and/or Vibrio.

[@flygringo]

Imagine how much fecal bacteria stays by just using toilet paper only and not water

[@PowerPivotLeadership]

A friend of mine does this, she cloth diapered her kids and she uses a similar setup for the towels, tosses them into a sterilizer-filled bucket until it's time to wash them

Every poop is not a clean poop. Can someone explain how a bidet would get you clean without using a lot of tp. Or direct me to that video. Thanks!

[@MacAutomationTips]

If I understand you correctly, the sprayed water from the bidet simply washes away your poop. You can move around a little too make sure it’s hitting all the right spots. I typically spray for like 5-10 seconds. When you first start using it, you can use TP to see how clean you got. Sometimes there might be little miss residue but for the most part you can get clean, and often more clean than wiping with toilet paper. Let me know if you have other questions.

[@MacAutomationTips]

@@IMOO1896 , sorry to hear that you’re experiencing that. Basically what I do is I move my butt around to get the cleaning done. If it’s a big dump it might take up 30+ seconds of washing to get the job down. Seriously I can’t see how it doesn’t do the job. All it’s doing is spraying the poop away. Move you butt around so it can get to all the areas. There might be some residue afterwards so you pat dry and clean with TP. At best it can reduce the amount of TP you’re using or in some cases eliminate it all together. I use Tushy towels for pat drying. I never use TP anymore.

I put in a basic bidet and I found it doesn't replace toilet paper, maybe cuts back a little, but one thing that upset me was a few years before I got this, I did a complete bathroom remodel and didn't think about putting a electric plug by the toilet, so mine doesn't have warm water.

[@williambranham6249]

Electric outlets are very inexpensive to install. In fact You Tube has more than adequate installation information. Or if your'e not in a hurry , have one installed next time you need an electrician. Maybe keep a power strip or extension cord handy by the toilet till then.

Bum towl would be great, but 2 kids at home and 4 that visit. Plus my partner and I. Let's say we each have 1 bowel movement per day and 2 or 3 pee. We would go through so many towels, it would be a whole wash in itself after a day (I know, I'm exaggerating, but you get what I mean.. I would need a stack of towels in constant supply). TP would be easier, but problem for environment. So I don't know which way to lean

[@HelloTUSHY]

Hi Mike! Totally understandable! You can try our Bamboo TP! Bamboo products are not only soft like a baby panda's bottom and absorbent for optimal butt patting, but(t) bamboo is also a sustainable resource. Bamboo absorbs 35% more CO₂ per hectare than equivalent plants and can grow up to 39 inches in just one day. That means that bamboo is ultra replenishable in addition to helping reduce deforestation (15% of deforestation is due to toilet paper production).
