The Lost era of Colored Toilet Papers from the 1950s to 1970s

There was a time when toilet paper and facial tissue weren’t just white. In the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, toilet paper came in designer colors to match the vivid colors of bathrooms and fixtures. Many manufacturers produced various colors, including pink, blue, yellow, lilac, tan, and black. As a result, toilet paper colors were often matched to bathroom colors by homeowners.

In the mid-80s, colored toilet paper slowly disappeared. Doctors began warning people about the harmful effects of color chemicals on the skin. Additionally, they were concerned about environmental impacts. In the past few decades, bathrooms have drastically changed in design. Due to design changes, colored toilet paper wasn’t a good fit. Modern bathrooms, for instance, are primarily white, unlike the toilets from the 1970s. You might still find a colorful space, but rarely. In this case, colored toilet paper would ruin the whole design since it would not be a perfect fit according to the all-white style. There is another reason why toilet paper is no longer colored. It is an extra cost.
