Hooded bathrobes

A bathrobe is a comfortable home wear, an excellent alternative to jeans with a T-shirt or tracksuit. It is pleasant to relax in a light and beautiful home dressing gown in a cozy armchair with a fresh magazine or a book and a cup of tea.

And sometimes a bathrobe is simply irreplaceable - it is much more convenient and pleasant to put on a bathrobe after a shower or a pool, and not to pull less spacious clothes over a damp, wet body. Bathrobes are made from hygroscopic fabric, which will quickly dry the skin and create a feeling of comfort. A hood is an obvious advantage, as it will keep your hair warm even when your hair is wet.

Since a bathrobe with a hood is not seasonal clothing, when choosing, it is enough to decide on the goal - what kind of bathrobe do you need, home, sports, for the pool?

Bathrobes are usually made from terry cloth, because it perfectly absorbs water, retains heat, washes well and is durable.

• For the pool, a lighter terry cloth may be suitable, although it absorbs water worse.
• And it is better to choose a home bathrobe from a heavier fabric, even if it is denser - it is warmer and will dry out the skin and hair more quickly.

A warm dressing gown is sewn from cotton or woolen flannel. These are light and skin-friendly fabrics, in addition, they are hypoallergenic, which is also very important for your comfort. Bathrobes made of microfiber, fleece or velor are also popular.

And quilted bathrobes not only keep you warm in winter, but also create a feeling of comfort in summer.

Such perky and cheerful models are usually chosen by young girls. Bathrobes "with ears" usually depict some cute fluffy animal, a squirrel, a bunny, therefore they are made of fleecy fabrics in light, cheerful colors.

Terry or house robes with zippers are usually sewn short or medium length so that they can be easily fastened without bending over. This is one of the most comfortable models of everyday home wear. These robes are usually equipped with a pair of pockets and tied with a belt.

Sports robes with a hood are usually medium length or shortened, they can be made from a variety of fabrics - cotton, bamboo, velor and even satin. The advantage of "breathable" natural fabrics, especially pleasant to the body after a workout, shower or pool.

Bathrobes are thrown over a wet body, so a deep wrap and a belt are ideal. The usual cut of such robes is kimono.

For a bathrobe, you need to take into account not only a comfortable cut (the smell is best), but also the composition of the fabric, and even the configuration of the terry cloth loops. Simple loops are more pleasant for the body, but inferior in hygroscopicity. In addition, they are easily "pulled out". Twisted loop terry is more durable, but not as pleasant to the touch. But this can be eliminated with a conditioner or rinse aid for a washing machine.

• Cotton and bamboo fabrics are preferred for bathing or sports robes.
• Fleece, velor, plush bathrobes are very good as everyday home wear. They retain color well, are durable, create a feeling of comfort.
• Flannel bathrobes are excellent clothes for housework.

If we talk about bathrobes, they are usually plain, the most popular colors are white, blue, yellow, pink, peach, salad and so on. It must be borne in mind that the coloring of natural fabrics is less resistant, and blue and white tones are more likely to shed. More resistant - orange-yellow scale and beige.

Flannel dressing gowns can have a floral or geometric pattern, and for quilted ones, the optimal colors are chocolate, blue, muted red, and purple.

To combine coziness and a sense of femininity, the right color of a dressing gown, a free silhouette and a comfortable length will help - important comfort factors.

• A long, flowing bathrobe is good for watching a movie while sitting on a comfortable sofa.
• For homework, it is wise to choose a shorter model.

When choosing a baby bathrobe, the most important thing is quality.Children's skin is much more sensitive than that of adults, some types of artificial fibers often cause allergies.
