How to wash towels to make them really soft: just one natural ingredient
Towels often lose their softness when the washing machine is overloaded or too much softener is used, as this causes residue to build up in the fibers, which reduces absorbency.
Cleaning guru Christina Denni claims that using white vinegar during washing is the best natural way to restore towels, the Express writes.
The acidity of the vinegar can dissolve alkaline build-up on towels, making them easier to rinse out during the wash cycle. White vinegar is also a natural fabric softener that restores fluffiness.
To naturally revitalize your towels, simply pour white vinegar into the detergent compartment of your washing machine. Load the towels and use regular laundry detergent, not a softener.
After the wash cycle, shake the towels well before throwing them into the dryer and turning on moderate heat.
If for some reason vinegar is not suitable for you, use oxygen bleach or baking soda.
