Onsen bathing – a distinctive cultural feature, has long been a habit for Japanese people to relax, cleanse their bodies and souls. However, what makes many people curious is the small towel often seen on the head of each person when entering the bath. It is not simply a decorative accessory, but this small towel also hides fascinating secrets, contributing to enhancing the Onsen bathing experience of the people of the Land of the Rising Sun. Today, let’s delve deeper with NEO GARDEN ONSEN!
– It may seem like this towel only serves to tidy up hair or add a touch of grace, but in reality, the small towel plays a crucial role in ensuring the health of Onsen bathers:
– Usually, before taking a bath, each person will bring two towels – a large towel to wrap around the body and a small towel to wrap around the head. Before being wrapped around the head, the small towel must be moistened to prevent heat imbalance, stabilizing blood pressure for the body. Especially when the weather in Japan is often cold, the towel at this time is a gentle transition from the outdoor temperature to the hot temperature of the Onsen.
– Besides, the towel helps absorb sweat quickly, keep the hair that has been neatly wrapped in place, preventing the hair from touching the water.
In addition, one thing you should also keep in mind is to avoid letting the towel fall into the water. In case the towel falls accidentally, take the towel to the shore to wring it dry instead of wringing it directly in the bathtub, to ensure hygiene, the quality of Onsen bath water is always clean and pure.
