The Japanese trick to dry clothes faster in winter

Winter makes drying clothes more difficult, with clothes staying damp for hours and humidity that encourages mold. Fortunately, the Japanese method optimizes this process by facilitating air circulation around the clothes. Here’s how to apply it effectively.

Key steps for fast drying
Sort Clothes
Separate clothes by size and weight. Place bulky items like jeans and towels separately, and keep lightweight and delicate fabrics together.
Arrange linen strategically
Place heavy clothes at the ends of the dryer to ensure stability.
Place lighter pieces in the center so they get better air circulation.
Always leave space between clothes to prevent them from sticking together and slowing down drying.
Point the dryer toward an air source
If possible, place the dryer near a window or in a natural air flow to help moisture evaporate.
Additional tips to improve drying
Use hangers to hang shirts and dresses to reduce wrinkling and avoid ironing.
Change the position of the clothes every few hours to allow for even drying.
