Sometimes a new product's popularity will take us by surprise, and that has certainly been the case with Hannahpad, as many styles sold out the day of release and we have had to put a rush order in to get more stock.

Hannahpad are a washable sanitary pad, with only the purest unbleached organic cotton against your body. They are available in 6 sizes, absorbing anywhere from 30ml to 130ml of liquid each. If you are not familiar with them, here's a little more information.

The average woman will use and dispose of approx. 10,000 pads or tampons in their lifetime. By replacing either a portion or all of your pads with a washable alternative, you will save a significant amount of money and waste going in to landfill.

How do they work?

Your Hannahpad comes in plastic free packaging, in a simple brown cardboard box. While Hannahpad do ship with a plastic zip lock bag, we do not automatically send them. Please feel free to add one to your cart for free as you go through the checkout. Your Hannahpad comes folded up in to a neat bundle and the clip fasteners that hold the wings in to place will also hold your Hannahpad closed when in storage.

Undo the clips, which are on the wings, and  you can see the Hannahpad start to unfold.

Flatten the Hannahpad out and insert in to the crutch of your underwear as you would a disposable pad. If you are unsure where the front and the back of  the pad is, the front of your Hannahpad is where you see the logo and the size label in the photo above.

Get the pad in to position and then fold the wings over the crutch and fasten.

How do you wash Hannahpad?

At the end of the day, rinse in cold water (hot water can set a blood stain) and give a quick lather and wash with any kind of soap or detergent on hand. If you have Dr Bronner's in the bathroom, that's fine. We recommend you use natural cleaning products to keep the integrity of the organic cotton and to lessen potential skin irritation. Soak in a bucket or container for anywhere between 6 and 48 hours. We prefer the Abode Sensitive Laundry Soaker but any natural whitener or stain remove will be fine. Machine wash on a cold cycle when you're ready.

What if I'm out and about?

It is a personal choice whether you feel comfortable using these when you know you have to change while you're out. If you do need to change a Hannahpad while you're out, they fold back up and clip fasten as per the pictures above and you can pop them in a ziplock bag. Since the patterned outer is waterproof, they will stay in a neat and clean bundle until you get them home. The bag can be rinsed if necessary and used repeatedly.

What do other Hannahpad users say?

Here's a handful of comments we received from customers on Facebook.

"I have used these and wont look back...they are easier than i thought to use, and so so comfy and nourishing! no leakage "

"Absolutely love them. I thought I wouldn't like the hassle of washing them but it hasn't been an issue at all. Love their designs and press clips. Really comfortable and practical case for keeping them in my bag when I need them. ❤️❤️"

"I love Hannah pads!!!! My rashes are gone and I love reducing landfill and saving money"

"To all the ladies out there thinking should I give Hannahpads a go answer is absolutely yes you won't look back, Hannahpads are worth every cent. Guaranteed no mess, no smell, so easy to clean and feel like your not even wearing a pad at all. Awesome customer service! Highly recommend them"

"I brought this brand for postpartum use after reacting badly to disposable products. Totally in love with them! We're so nice to use. Haven't had my period return post birth yet but will definitely be kicking the disposables to the kerb!"

"I use these & love them! They are worth the investment. I have tried other brands & these are definitely the best. My daughter will get some when her time comes (many years away!). ????????"

"Their so comfortable ( no occasional hair pinching ) they flex with you and don't smell, cleaning so easy. In short, love them!"

So many customers have been purchasing just one to give them a try. Others have been buying sets too. Give the panty liners a try if you just want to see how you go.
