Are black sheets harmful to the body? What kind of fabric is good for sheets?

Bed sheets are very common bedding. We usually use bed sheets when we sleep. Bed sheets come in many materials, colors and styles. Black sheets are relatively rare because black is dull and depressing.

Good quality black sheets are harmless, but black is easy to fade and the color is a bit depressing, which can affect your mood. It is recommended that the elderly and newlyweds choose light colors, which can lift your spirits, make you happy, and add a festive atmosphere to the room.

First of all, the color of the sheets and quilts should be unified with the overall color tone of the room to produce a harmonious and beautiful effect. For bedrooms with larger spaces, use sheets and quilts with light brown large flower patterns to reduce the sense of emptiness. The use of light orange sheets and quilts in the rooms of the elderly can make people happy. The rooms of newlyweds should use sheets and quilts with bright and strong colors to add a festive atmosphere to the room. The color of sheets and quilts may also affect people's emotions. For people who are emotionally unstable and easily impatient, it is appropriate to use light green sheets and quilts in the room to relax the mind and relieve tension. Choose sheets and quilts of different colors in different seasons. For example, in summer, you can choose some cool colors such as green and blue to cool down the bedroom. For the selection of sheets and quilts, the material is mostly cotton. Because it is in direct contact with the body, it is best to choose natural pure cotton products, because natural cotton fibers have good affinity with human skin, good moisture absorption and breathability, safe, comfortable and non-irritating. Other materials such as linen, wool, and lace are generally used as a match. The material of bed sheets and quilt covers should be mainly cotton. The better the skin feel and the softer it feels, the more suitable it is for sleeping.

It is recommended to do it once a week. Don’t think that your skin is not dirty. In fact, there are a lot of bacteria every day, which may make your skin sick.

1. If you don't wash your pillows, blankets and bed sheets for a week, there may be 3 to 5 million CFU (colony forming units) of bacteria per 6 square centimeters. If you don't wash your pillows, blankets and bed sheets for a month, the number will be close to 12 million. You should know that a bed sheet is about 4 square meters, that is, 6666 6 square centimeters, so at least 800 million bacteria are sleeping with you.

2. Replace your bedding every 7 years to reduce bacterial infection. Studies have shown that bedding also has a "7-year itch": new bedding has only 3 million bacteria per square inch, which increases to 9 million after two years, 13.5 million after five years, and 16 million bacteria after seven years!

3. How often should you change your bed sheets and quilt covers? When you use them for the first time, you can wash off the surface starch and floating colors of printing and dyeing. They will be softer to use and less likely to fade when washed in the future. When you change your bed sheets and quilt covers, the water temperature should not exceed 30 degrees to prevent some fabrics from shrinking. Do not expose them to the sun after washing.

4. How often should you change your bed sheets and quilt covers? You should also pay attention to maintenance. When washing linen products, do not rub or wring them hard. Do not put mothballs or put white silk products in camphorwood boxes, otherwise they will turn yellow. When storing cotton and linen products, pay attention to keeping the environment clean to prevent mildew. Make sure to fully dry them in the sun so that they will not be affected when used again.

The price of bedding is very important. Generally, the price of cotton is between 300 and 500 yuan, and the price of silk is between 800 and 1,000 yuan. If the quilt cover is not printed well, the fragrance will be strong. Pure cotton fabric is soft and comfortable, sweat-absorbent and soft, and very helpful for sleeping. Silk cotton is light and breathable, but the warmth retention is slightly weaker. Anyway, each has its pros and cons.
