Bathroom Towel Warmers

Wrapping your body in a cold towel after a shower isn’t the best way to retain body heat – especially in winter. One of the necessities of luxurious bathroom space is having a towel warmer.

Your bath towels will stay toasty in a warming drawer or hung on a wall as a heated rack. Furthermore, it’s one of several affordable luxurious bathroom ideas critical to an enjoyable morning routine.

Electric towel warmers are designed to heat your bath linens to a comfy temperature gently. They are also sold in a wide range of styles, including –

• Wall towel racks
• Freestanding plug-in units
• Bathroom vanities with built-in towel warming drawers

Pro tip: Heated towel racks are also excellent for drying wet towels, warming quilts, and baby blankets.

Massage Showerheads

Upgrade your daily cleansing routine with a high-end showerhead that provides a massage. It’s a simple way to add relaxation and comfort to your bathroom without spending much money. Additionally, it’s a premium upgrade you’ll use daily.

Frequenting a day spa for a body massage may be wonderful, but it can be expensive. A massage showerhead is the next best solution.

Massage showerheads work by ejecting water under increased pressure. Water touches your skin with a gentle massaging to relax tight and tired muscles.

Some massage showerheads come with a pulsating feature. When set on “pulsate,” the showerhead varies the spray – increasing and decreasing water pressure. This water variance makes for a pleasurable cleansing experience.

Pro tip: If you prefer a gentle, rain-like spray, consider a rain showerhead for a refreshing wash.

Additional massage showerhead positives include –

• Installation is relatively simple – similar to adding a regular showerhead – some brands make it even easier.
• Plus, a massage shower is therapeutic, relaxing – and fun!
