I had a fixed bidet and it got water all over. I switches to a wand style bidet and it was a fucking game changer. I can focus specifically on where I want and my ass is clean, even after Chipotle lunches.
I ended up getting a bunch of small towels and a bucket. So I rinse, dry my cheeks with a small towel, wipe with two squares of TP, then dry again with the towel and toss it in a bucket for washing with my regular towels.
I’m new to the bidet scene
OP after entering the bidet scene
spoiler
Mine has a built in fan for drying, that gets it most of the way and then a final swipe with toilet paper.
Toto bidet owner here, mine has a warm fan that only needs about 5 to 10 seconds to dry off. Then check, verify dryness and cleanliness with a bit of TP. But a little bit of wetness dries off quickly anyway.
My mom had Crohn's so she was on the toilet a lot, and my dad got her a toto washlet, the fanciest one possible. It uses the seat as a warm water reservoir (never a cold toilet seat), has a light, and has a heated air dryer. When I grew up and we redid a bathroom, that was my single ask...and outlet next to the toilet and that device. It's absolutely key, we put an unpowered bidet in the other bathroom and no one will use it.
As another person who also has Crohn's, that sounds absolutely perfect!
I've already commented this down below, so i'll just copy paste here.
I suppose it depends if you are using it correctly or not. I've used a bidet all my life, and where i live bidets are a separate bowl from the toilet, made from the same materials, and virtually every household has one. I've never had a problem of it not cleaning enough
Afterwards i'll just dry a bit with a towel specifically used for that
Here's an image. You can see the bidet has a kind of jet of water coming upwards with force, exactly below where you would sit. You can regulate the intensity and if done properly you can clean yourself completely https://images.app.goo.gl/6w3EMWrAk34DBwJd7
I dab with a square or two of toilet paper. A roll lasts a long time. Probably unnecessary because ours is precise but it’s really humid here.
a sheet of TP or drip dry.
