You can soak it in a hydrogen peroxide solution if the yellowing bothers you. Or buy a washable pillow cover which has the extra bonus of making your pillow a little more squishy.
It goes inside the cover. Who give a shit? I gonna sweat into the next one.
IMO you should just replace them by this point
Homey got new-pillow money, over here…
But it’s a good pillow, valar.
There are plenty of fish in the sea (that aren’t filled with mites)
Imagine just chilling in your home, doing whatever it is mites do in their leisure, looking forward to that time of night when the big giant head comes home to bring you more delicious dander, only to have your god cast your home into the darkness of the refuse bin. Our Lord, why have you forsaken us?!?
Feeling very conflicted as I go to sleep right now.
Well, better than the hydrogen peroxide genocide.
but i like the mites. they are my friend.
The mites replace their tongue
Hey everyone look at this guy, he’s got new pillow money.
You’re supposed to replace them once a year because of the mites and stuff
Or use one of your T-shirts as cover. No need to go buying more silly household stuff.
It’s a pillowcase not a soda stream
Your boyfriends T-shirts *
Gotta get myself a boyfriend then, time to download grindr i guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It’s just something my exes did. They’d take my hoodie/tshirt and use it as a pillow case because it had “my smell”
We get a lot of oxytocin from smells, that’s why shirt thing
That’s kinda cute, in a very slightly worrying way
That pillow still has volume and isn’t completely yellowed out. It’s good for another 6 years, before going in the closet with the rest of the old pillows.
Becoming an adult and learning that pillows can be cheaply replaced when they’ve worn out was amazing. I’ve sense bought a nicer pillow that didn’t need to be replaced every year.
every year
Oh.
Oh.
Ooooooh.
You’re supposed to do it every year?
It’s kind of up to you how flat your willing to let your pillow get. There’s some sanitary benefits to washing/replacing a pillow every now again.
For me after discovering what a new pillow is like, and not having to stack up 3 pillows, those Walmart $20 pillows only lasted a year.
I now have a $100 pillow that has lasted many years.
I do wash mine quite often. Try to every time I wash the bedclothes.
I too got a new generic pillow for cheap. Ite just almost too thick for a support pillow and my main is memoryfoam, which I liked. So I just kept using my old secondary pillow instead of the new plump one. Going to have to “drive it in” I see.
Unless you have neck conditions and your favorite pillow of the type you need is not produced anymore.
It’s just seasoning like a good cast iron skillet
Peellow.
I sweat a fair amount while I’m asleep and have pretty oily hair and skin around my face. After a few months my pillows start looking like that.
Only my fancy pillows look like that.
Wait, you guys have pillows?
Only on uneven numbered days.
That’s odd.
Leave my pillow alone!
Wash them if you can. I find most poly filled pillows get lumpy if washed. But, you can toss your pillows in the dryer on high heat for about 20 minutes. That helps kill some smells, bacteria, etc.
I just bought brand new pillows and they have both pillowcases and waterproof pillow protectors on them.
my pillow looks like a very cute shark
You may have Gilbert Syndrome. Something like 10% of the population has it and it gives you more bilirubin in your sweat which causes this.
You might also have or carry the cystic fibrosis gene that makes your sweat extra salty and staining. I have CF all my pillows are WAY worse than this and my parents both have the same issue, a few extended family members too.
Salt in sweat will just do this but extra salty sweat will fuck up the way a pillow looks
As one CFer to another, I hope you’re doing well. My pillows also turn somewhat yellow, but then again so my wife’s.
The cum pillow
