Hugh: How Often Do You Replace Your Pillow? This Test Will Tell You if You Need a New One

It’s not exactly breaking news that sleep is important. Especially as you get older, how you sleep at night can really shape the entire next day. So, how much thought do you put into your pillow? For me, it’s been a relatively recent revelation that it’s probably a good idea to spend more than $15 on the thing you rest your head on every night. Just like everything that sees daily use, your pillow needs to be replaced every now and then. As far as when you should replace your pillow, Queen of Clean Lynsey Crombie has a hack for determining if your pillows are too old! In her Instagram clip, she folds a pillow in half for 30 seconds.
