Im actually amazed that youre showing washing real life pads instead of hush hush pretending it :o

Where have I been all these years? Wasting so much $$ on pads. Now in quarantine this is great. Thanks

More people need to see your method! I see so many questions or concerns of putting their cloth pads in the wash because of the other people in the house with them. This method would be no different than washing a newly soiled pair of panties you leaked onto over the night. And only soaking them for 4 hours give minimal time for anyone to discover them, if you clean them at a proper time. Well done, thank you for the upload!

Hi, thanks for posting! A lot of us who want to use these have questions about how to properly clean them. I love how your video is down to earth and realistic, not like the damn tampon commercials that make it seem like a period is FUN or COMFORTABLE loll, seriously a good simple from beginning to end tutorial.

I bought some reusable pads. This is my second time using them. They are truly soft and so gentle. I have not had an accident with these. It seems as though there was always an issue with store bought pads and some leakage one way or another. So that is a huge difference. Bc I am at home I can manage much easier then if I were going to work. Cleaning them is also easy. Saved $ this month.

Hydrogen peroxide is excellent for removing blood from any clothing. The area it will bubble up. let it sit for a while and it will remove the blood. Simply rinse out with water or do your normal cleansing routine.

Harry Potter 😍😍 You're bleeding on Bellatrix's face 🤣 "Justice"..

That was quite minimalistic I was expecting to see a ton of blood and gore😳😂

Thanks for sharing! I just ordered some reusable pads and the washing part is my biggest concern.

Thank you so much for actually using cloth pads and not pretending to or saying that its disgusting! Appreciated 😊

You are a wonderful lady to have shown and taught how to clean them so well! Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Brave if you and I am truly greatful 💖💫💖

Thank you for the raw and honest video, I'm thinking of doing cloth pads for my daughter.

Hi, I used to soak pads in cold water with salt. I also used washing soap and a nail brush to scrub out stubborn stains. Love the video. I wish I’d been shown this type of video when I was just starting my periods. Thank you x

Respect to you for posting such an honest video, I needed this, I just ordered my first set of pads to go along with my menstrual cup trying to be as green as possible while saving money in the long run....thanks 🙂

I started watching the video with eye open because I thought it did be absolutely nasty but it wasn't at all. Thank you for the video! Very helpful.

I don't use any oxy type of products, but it seems a lot of cloth pad users do. Mine come clean and I only use Dr Bronners for the soak (I'm not gentle with mine, I scrub them by hand before I stain treat) and then ecover to stain treat.

Thanks for this! I love how intentional you are by having the inner side of the pad black fabric so you can't see the stain! I appreciate this video! God bless! 💜

You know you can use hydrogen peroxide as a blood stain remover and it works really well and is much cheaper!😉👍

this is pretty neat. i have to laugh though because I'm at a point in perimenopause when my periods are shockingly heavy. i pictured myself wearing a bolt of fabric.

I love the ecover as well - it works miracles with my pads!

I love the designs of your pads! Harry Potter and Jack Skellington 😍😍😍 Newbie here, I'll be ordering my first batch of cotton pads and interlabial pads soon and I'm excited lol. This method of washing looks really easy and not at all time consuming.

Wow thanks a lot it really inspired me to use (or even look out for ) these fabric pads😃

Thanks for making these videos and keeping it real! I heard about cloth pads on a cup group after cups didn’t work for me.. immediately came to KZfaq and binged your videos! I just completed my first cycle with cloth and I loved it! It was so comfortable and easy. I already have way too many! Lol all the prints are too cute! I feel like their like Pokémon you got to catch them all lol

*For those who wanna try using cloth pads.* ✔️Make sure that you don't use bleach to remove the stains. It will ruin the special fabric *must try* ✔️Use bathing soap instead and just rub the stain off. (works well with *stained panties* too. You won't need to use too much bleach) ✔️Don't iron the cloth pads too it would just ruin the fabric

I love your videos, I am going to try and use this method to was my cloth pads as the method I've been using has been leading to staining so this was a highly helpful video xx

Your video was fast and simple, method is quick. Makes me inspired to use cloth pads without fear of loosing too much time.

Thanks I needed to see this before making the switch to cloth pads, nice prints you have btw!

Love pad cleaning routines!

Excellent tutorial -- reusable pads sure beats buying new ones all the time

i love this video! I just switched to Rumps and I wash mine basically the same way, except a few changes! 💜

That is such a brilliant idea about the wash tub! I'm raising 12 chicks and 2 turkey chicks inside the house until they feather out and can handle the weather outside under their lamp. Each morning I dump their water dish (with poop, food, bedding mixed inside the water) into the large laundry room sink. It just grosses me out to then fill that sink up and wash my pads in there. It's a pet peeve I guess because they are washed in the washing machine after, lol. Oh my word, I'm getting a wash tub. Not only that, but you had such a great way of explaining not to use warm water and why (oops) and which stain remover that works well! I'm cloth pad poor (don't have enough for my entire period yet) I really like menstrual cups, and use those and pads for the first heavy day, then just go onto using solely the cup as it tapers off into lighter days. Been using a cup for like almost 3 years, but yesterday it just refused to sit right and kept leaking, so I decided to purchase more cloth pads for next period, just in case. They're nice to have around anyways! I have a small wet bag for my purse to keep a clean pad inside, and if I'm out I can change out the one I'm wearing for the clean pad, without worrying about what on earth to wrap the used pad in. Yayness. LOL. You had some nice pads (if that's not weird to say) I personally like the Lohan store on etsy, her pads have been wonderful! I bought a few from a different store and they were so thick and uncomfortable I never wear them. Ever. So I have stuck with that store on etsy, in fact I'm heading there now :b

This video gave me the courage to buy a set of my own! They’re quite dark so I hope I get minimal staining!

Thank you for posting this video. I love all your pad designs. Where did you get them? Did you make them? Where can I get that stain remover with the scrub brush?

Loved your video! Where did you get that Jack pad? I really loved it! Continue doing these videos x

Is thinking of using washable pads so this was really helpful on how to clean them thanks!!!!

Just spend three days on sewing pads and put them in the washing mashine to pre wash niw so wish me luck. Also thank you for making that video I am so going to rewatch it when done with my period.

So cute the pads i wish use this as well!

Bruh all this wonderful designs on them make me wanna get some😂

Thank you for the video. What brands are your pads? I love most of the patterns!

Thanks for keeping it real with us!

Thank You , I Truly Appreciate you for showing us how to wash our cloth pads. I just ordered some from EBay!🎈🎈🎈

Thank you I just got some and I wasn't sure which side I was supposed to use face up so now that helped me with two questions I had lol thank you.

Thanks so much Kate here from South Africa 🇿🇦 I've just heard of this and going to try it this December holiday. I was just wondering how to clean. I was like omw how bad can it be...but after watching your video...it's a go 🤗 I'm chuffed actually it's bothered me for years the waist we make with pads. I recycle everything...so happy. God bless

Thinking of going reusable but my periods are like monsters. Sometimes I have to wear an ultra tampon with a super long overnight pad at the same time and change them both after 2 hrs. Idk how I stay alive 😂

Thanks for showing how to clean cloth pads and how to take out real stains.

Great video - I've been wondering whats the best way to wash these. Thank you

I make my own cloth pads from terry towelling 'baby burp cloths'. I fold them over in my underwear and they are SO comfy!

I order mines yesterday and i’m surprised how lightly stained they are! I think it’s the proof that really work!

Great video! Thanks! What brand do you use? I'm ordering next month.

I heard that you can just use peroxide and soap.

Thank you for your video. So real, it speaks volumes 😊🤗

Thank you, this was really helpful!

Thank you for the video,! Where do you buy your Ecover stain remover?

this is extremely helpful! next month i'm switching to reusable products so this so amazing!

Thank you so much for explaining this! Good video!

Great video thank you. Jealous at how many pads you have though! (and they're so pretty!)

I mean stain are normal but wow you take really good care of it.

My style is wash anf brush them immediately. Then soak them with soap and water whole night. If there arestill stains in the morning, my mom told me to soak them in boiled water. I also put lemons/limes brcause sometimes there's a smell left on the cloth. PS my pasador is white or off white so the stains are visible

Tried these originally for when I was at college I hated the noise disposables made when changing them and of course the plastic waste from them too and I found them to be better than disposables but for some reason (I can't remember why) I stopped using them. But I started using them again and they are fantastic.

They are all so pretty.. i live wizh my family and firrst i had to make mine all by my self and second I need to clean them all by hand bc my mom dont want them to be in our washingmashine or use single use pads when my cup is leaking

I use baking soda apple cider vinegar and lemon juice as a paste for stain removal

I loved your pads, there are so pretty

This is great video! The Harry Potter one made me laugh I love Harry Potter!

This was super helpful!

Thank you,very useful video!

Awsome video! Thank for being real with us!

Thanks! I'll be using this routine when I move into my college dorm!

You have quite the collection 😩😩 i could only afford 3 for now

Amazing!! Thanks a lot!!!

The Jack Skellington one is my favourite 😂 Also, could you just wash them with your regular laundry? I wash all my clothes in cold water with tide pods.

This is such a wonderful video!! Thank you so much for showing everything the way it really is. I have a question though. Do you know what the core in your pads are made of? I am going to make my own. I can't wait! Some people like bamboo fleece, some use zorb 1, some old towels and flannel. Thanks!!

Cloth pad user for 6+ years and I’ve done it all. To maintain them I like to throw them into a bin after each use and not even bother washing them each day. Once my cycle is over I take the bin to the shower squirt some dawn soap on there and fill out with hot water then I use my hands to agitate and squeeze the pads and swish them around I empty it and do that one or two more times drain the water take the bin to the washer dump them in use regular detergent of your choice + oxy powdered detergent like the Ariel kind do a hot cycle with two rinses throw in the dryer and call it a day. I obviously disinfect and clean my tub out after (I like to use a spray bottle with 10-20% bleach rest water spray the tub let it sit for like 5 mins and then rinse the tub) washing every pad or everyday took too much time and the method I use I’ve never had a stain and I have the exact pads I started this journey with so that tells you a lot. If you have a pad that you think will stain what I do is use a zote bar rub it all over the pad real good before putting them in the wash as an added step. I use hot water and I’ve never had any stains? I’m also very hard on them I beat the crap out of them I’m never gentle and not one stitch came undone in 6+ years.

Love it, thank you

Great video,I've seen it so many times. As a stain remover I use oxygen bleach from Lidl,very cheap and gets all the stains out. I use Chinese pads (I bought from Amazon and didn't check the seller and I kept them when I found out,they were already used) and recently I find that my pads smell like raw egg,I wash them by hand and when my period ends,I throw them in the washing machine. I use a Chante Clair eco detergent to clean them,maybe it's not cleaning them properly?? I switched to Soap de Marseille liquid detergent,hoping if would clean them better. I do want to emphasize that no blood is left on the fabric so they're not dirty after I finish washing them and I do wash myself several times a day, especially in the summer,to prevent sweat odor and such. So,what do you think? Is the detergent the problem? Or it's the fact they're Chinese and therefore not that high quality? I never had issues with blood soaking through or whatever,they're perfect.

something about having bellatrix's face on a pad made me chuckle

Great video, very useful.

Super-helpful. Thank you.

*FWAP!* This one's clean!

Just to make sure I’ve got it right.You do this to get the blood out, then once that’s done.you put it with your laundry to wash as normal? I’m considering switching because how pricey Period products are.

What fabric are these? Also, to anyone with experience with these, do different fabrics need to be washed differently?

I like the idea of cloth pads. One it wont move around bc it snaps to your underwear. Is it more difficult to clean and does it show through your clothes say wearing sweat pants or something. Do they have a pretty high absorbancy without being like a mega overnight pad size?

I need a Scorpio print pad in my life ❤

Did u made those reusable pads or brought? Can u pls do one video to explain how to make those pads?

I’m gonna get some of these for myself but I have a question. Do I have to wash them everyday or can I just do the oxi clean and stain treatment method and then just wait until my period is done, I know that sounds gross but I don’t wanna waste water, I’d rather just do it with a load of laundry (my periods typically last 7 days and I go through 3-4 pads per day)

I love using my cloth pads as directed. Surprisingly, I don't have to do a lot of pre treating, just rinsing out blood and tossing them into the washing machine as directed. I bought mine from Amazon and got great pads for the cost and quality. Thank goodness they exist and thank you for teaching us how to pre treat if we need too. Kindest Regards, Aiden Alamo

Thanks for this video :)

Are their some things you shouldn’t use on them? I’m new to using the reusable pads so i wanna make sure i am doing it right

I know it's been a while But do you remember where you got the Peter Rabbit pad? It's so cute!

Do you wash these with regular dirty clothes? I’m new to these and I don’t want to waste a wash cycle on my washing machine. Do you have any recommendations as to what types of other clothes you can mix these with?

Thank you for your video! This month is my first month using cloth pads. I will try your cleaning method.

I love your review on washing disposable pads. Is it a definate the pads have to be put in washing machine? How about just washing by hand and then air dry?

Thank you I love your video.

Thanks, great video

I was told to rinse them when i was done with them, and i tried that with the first pad i used. But it was just lying there, nasty and wet (and musty and horrible), so trying this now. Hopefully this is more gentle toward the pads, too! Excited to see if mine will come out looking like that, though, haha! 😂😂

did u make those pads the colours are very nice

What kind of fabrics you use in contact with your skin in this pads?

What material those pads line with for the blood not lick or sock through?

I'm very confused! All this time I think I've been wearing mine the wrong way! I hardly ever have stains because I use the black soft side next to my skin... ? I seems to work great. Once I got tired of rinsing after each one and tried just soaking them all in cold water after "moon time" was over instead, like you did in your video (i had not thought of using oxi clean) and then do my usual soaking them in vinegar with a few drops of tea tree oil before laundering. Soaking them all at once in the water overnight made them all stain solid red so I tried bleaching them... then they leaked like crazy as if I was wearing just toilet paper!! NEVER BLEACH... NOTE TO SELF! So I'm going to try wearing mine the other way around now and trying oxi-clean like you do... I'm a bit confused to wear them the opposite side because the pretty material side is not as soft. I only have two that are soft on that side... thanks for your video and for being brave enough to help others like me!! I was just bumbling around on my own until I braved searching for some help!!

i would have liked to have seen them after they came out of the wash but other then that this was a awesome video with good information. Thank you.
