Ok I have to ask. How often do you guys change your sheets?

[–] Damage@feddit.it 8 points 13 hours ago

Depends on the season, but roughly every 10 days

Usually at least twice for ethical reasons.

Every two weeks. I was wondering the same thing, so thanks for asking. How about you?

[–] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

I'm an every 2 weeks guy but i aspire to be an every week guy, kind of feels better and sounds better. I guess that shows that there's a tolersnce limit - 1week to 3weeks on one set of bedding

When I was younger, at least twice a week. Now, every week, but just the fitted.

About once a week, or whenever they start feeling too grimy to comfortably sleep in (I’ve got sensitive skin.)

Your sheets feel grimy after a week or so? Do you have a very physical job?

I'm pretty sedentary, and I'm not even sure I could tell when my sheets need cleaning by feel. I wash them ever couple of weeks or so because I'm guessing they've absorbed some body oils by then, but not such that I can see or feel it.

Not really, it's a sensory thing. Mildly greasy sheets will make me feel itchy. As much as I loathe going to the laundromat, it's usually the bedsheets that spur me to go do laundry even when I still have clean clothes to wear.

[–] AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.ca 1 points 7 hours ago

Ah, makes sense.
