Bidet users, how do you dry your ass afterward? (sh.itjust.works)

I’m new to the bidet scene, and this one has me slightly confounded. Should I install a new towel rack next to the toilet? Should my wife and I share the towel? Do you wipe first? There are so many unanswered questions in the ways of bidet-ing!

I had a fixed bidet and it got water all over. I switches to a wand style bidet and it was a fucking game changer. I can focus specifically on where I want and my ass is clean, even after Chipotle lunches.

I ended up getting a bunch of small towels and a bucket. So I rinse, dry my cheeks with a small towel, wipe with two squares of TP, then dry again with the towel and toss it in a bucket for washing with my regular towels.

Why are you bothering with special towels if you’re just using toilet paper at the end anyway?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I had my gallbladder taken out years ago, so my feces is not as solid as most people's. The TP is to scrape what the bidet doesn't get, and the towels are only for drying, not for wiping up shit (I don't want to put shit in my washing machine). I use about 75-80% less toilet paper than I did before and my ass is cleaner.

If you stick the wand up your ass it might work even better.
