A mother-of-two has left people divided after she revealed that she doesn’t use toilet paper as she makes reusable versions at home.
Channon Rose took to TikTok and revealed that making her own reusable cloths helps her save lots of money.
She explained that she stopped buying toilet paper as it was like flushing money down the loo, and now her family use reusable cloths, which are cleaned regularly.
Channon said that they have a bidet at home and they use reusable toilet paper for wiping the area dry.
“I think regular toilet paper is gross – it gets crumbly and stuck, I’d rather have water and cloth,” she said. “I just feel like it cleans me way better.
“Some people might think it’s gross, we have a bidet so it cleans us and we use reusable toilet paper to wipe dry.
“Then we throw this in our laundry and wash it with our regular clothes.”
Her video has received over 200,000 views, with many praising the mother-of-two.
One person commented: “Reusable pads for the win! It most definitely makes cramps less intense!”
Another wrote: “We’ve been doing that for years. We each have a different coloured cloth hung next to the kazi. Problem is, by day 6 all the cloths look the same mud like colour. After 2 weeks we give them a quick 30 degree eco wash and start again.”
A third said: “I kinda want to do this.”
But others think that her technique is gross, with one person writing: “She thinks toilet paper is disgusting & uses homemade cloths that get cleaned regularly. How often is regularly. The smell alone from the cloths waiting to be washed I would have thought was pretty disgusting. No, give me toilet paper any day of the week.”
Another said: “She uses the cloths then puts them in with her regular laundry …gross!. And how much detergent and (hopefully ) very hot water does she use to sanitise them !!”
