Yes, many shower curtains can be washed in the washing machine.

The material matters, especially with plastic liners.

Fabric shower curtains are usually the easiest to machine wash. Use mild detergent and follow the care label.

Some plastic liners can also be washed on gentle with towels to help scrub them, but high heat can damage them.

Air dry the curtain or liner afterward. Avoid a hot dryer unless the label clearly allows it.

Shower curtains are often washable, and regular cleaning helps prevent mildew and soap buildup.
