Review (3/5): Not the same as original sample.
I originally tried a sample directly from the manufacturer. I have a hair salon. Loved the sample in Teal and charcoal. Sample was Color fast no fading, stain resistant and minimal shrinkage. They were no longer selling them and had to order thru Amazon. Same labels but not the same towel. Thickness is fine and absorbent and shrinkage reasonable. But fading, and staining.
The Teal is pretty and nicer to look at. However I am still using my older towels (different manufacturer) still color safe non fading,, as much as I can when coming in contact directly with bleach or color. Because these do fade where exposed to bleach and stain from color although it is muted.
Not sure if I would recommend. I started to use vinegar rinse to help soften and keep color from fading. Does not effect absorbency and no scent.
