What to think of when drying your swimsuit
We all just want to dry our swimsuits in an instant and not have to worry about them being wet anymore. And there are several methods that work really well.
However, when trying any clothing, especially swimsuits, it’s important to know the pros and cons of each method.
Generally, if a method dries your swimsuit faster, it’s often harder on the fabric. Swimsuits, being very delicate should be treated with care. Therefore, the fastest option might not always be the best.
If you really are in a hurry, it might be fine to dry your swimsuit very fast so you can go. But if you aren’t in a rush we recommend that you always consider the option that wears the least on the fabric of your swimsuit to keep it in mint condition longer.

Different ways to dry your swimsuit
There are several ways to dry a swimsuit quickly. In this blog post, we’ll discuss some of the best methods for drying your swimsuit. Some of the most common ways to dry a swimsuit are:
Drying a swimsuit in the sun
Drying a swimsuit in the dryer
Using a towel to dry a swimsuit
Drying a swimsuit with a hairdryer
Hang a swimsuit to dry
Lay a swimsuit flat to dry
1. Drying a swimsuit in the sun
One way to dry a swimsuit fast is to lay it out in direct sunlight. The sun will dry the fabric quickly, and you won’t have to worry about any wrinkles.
However, you need to be careful not to leave your swimsuit in the sun for too long. The UV rays can fade the color of your swimsuit and cause it to deteriorate over time.
2. Drying a swimsuit in the dryer
Another way to dry a swimsuit quickly is to put it in the dryer on a low setting. This will speed up the drying process and help get rid of any wrinkles.
However, you need to be careful not to put your swimsuit in the dryer for too long. Excessive heat can damage the fabric of your swimsuit and cause it to shrink.
3. Using a towel to dry a swimsuit
If you don’t want to put your swimsuit in the sun or dryer, you can dry it with a towel. Wrap the towel around your swimsuit and squeeze out the excess water. This will help speed up the drying process.
This method can be time -consuming and might not work if your swimsuit is very wet.
4. Drying a swimsuit with a hairdryer
If you’re in a hurry, you can dry your swimsuit with a hairdryer. This will speed up the drying process and help get rid of any wrinkles.
You need to be careful not to put your swimsuit too close to the hairdryer. Excessive heat can damage the fabric of your swimsuit and cause it to shrink.
5. Hang a swimsuit to dry
Another way to dry your swimsuit is to hang it up. This will help the water drip out of your swimsuit and speed up the drying process.
You can hang your swimsuit over a towel rack, shower curtain, or clothesline. Make sure the area is well-ventilated so your swimsuit can dry quickly.
6. Lay a swimsuit flat to dry
If you don’t want to hang your swimsuit up, you can lay it flat to dry. This will help the water drip out of your swimsuit and speed up the drying process.
Place your swimsuit on a dry towel and roll it up. Then, put your swimsuit in a dry place where it can lay flat. This will help the water drip out and dry faster.

How to dry a swimsuit faster
As we talked about before, the fastest way to dry your swimsuit is often the hardest on the fabric. But if you are in a rush that might be the price to pay for a dry swimsuit once in a while.
The fastest way to dry a swimsuit is to first gently squeeze it to remove water. Don’t do this too hard since you’ll end up wrinkling your swimsuit and ruin the fit.
After getting rid of most of the water lay your swimsuit in direct sunlight on a flat surface, or alternatively, hang it in where the sun can hit it.
This will dry most swimsuits in no time. If you are in a super rush, you can use a hairdryer on the lowest heat setting from about a foot away from the swimsuit.
How to pack your swimsuit if it’s not completely dry
We’ve all found ourselves in this situation before. You underestimated the time it would take for your swimsuit to dry and now you need to leave before your swimsuit has completely dried out.
The question now is, what to do? How to pack a wet swimsuit?
Before learning how to best pack a wet swimsuit we need to realize that packing up a moist swimsuit is never good for the fabric and general wellbeing of your delicate swimsuit.
Therefore, you should always have it packed for as short a period as possible and always unpack it as soon as possible.
Knowing this, the best way to pack a wet swimsuit is in a plastic bag. The plastic will keep any water or moisture inside the bag to not damage anything around that should not get wet.
The second bet option is to roll it in a towel. Your towel will most likely be thick enough to keep any water from seeping out and damaging other things in your bag.
If you don’t have any plastic bags or towels readily available, dry them off as much as possible and pack them in the middle of your luggage so that if some water does come out it won’t damage anything else.
Packing a swimsuit when it’s not dry is never ideal, but if you find yourself in this situation, these are the best ways to minimize any damage.
