Everyday Bras vs. Sports Bras: Cleaning Frequency and Care A survey of 200 women revealed that most don't wear the same bra daily, and about a third wash theirs every two weeks. Others wash even less often. This works if you rotate multiple bras, which helps retain their shape and prevents stretching.
