The modern bidet seats even have drying options. If you press the 'Dry' button, provided there is one, the air dryer will dry the area. If you are using the traditional bidet, you can dry using toilet paper or a towel. In most public toilets with bidets, towels are provided on a ring next to it.

Does a bidet really get you clean?

The bottom line. Bidets really work. Just like a shower to wash away sweat after a workout or a thorough hand-washing after working on a project, all bidets use the power of water to clean off your skin simply and effectively.

Is a bidet a waste of water?

While bidets may seem like they use more water than a traditional-toilet-and-toilet-paper method, bidets save water because they greatly reduce the amount of toilet paper we need to use. The average person, who practices good hygiene, washes their hands after going to the bathroom.
