Reply

いいえ、タオルは湯船に入れないでください。頭の上に置くか、湯船の外に置いてくださいね。

いいえ、たおるはゆぶねにいれないでください。あたまのうえにおくか、ゆぶねのそとにおいてくださいね。

No, please don't put the towel in the bathwater. Please put it on your head or outside the tub.

Gesture & etiquette

Point to the small towel and then to the bathwater, with a questioning look.

Do not put your personal towel in the bathwater. This is considered unhygienic in Japan.
