Add this ingredient to your washing and you will have soft towels like never before
Wanting clean and scented towels is a normal thing to want. But ensuring our towels don't become rough and stay soft is not easy. Many companies sell fabric softeners of all types and fragrances, but it is not always the case that they are right for our needs.
But not everyone knows that there are natural remedies we can use to get great results when washing our towels. Are you curious to know what they are? Let's find out together:
Keeping towels soft? There is a way to do this...
If our dream is to always have perfectly clean and soft towels, the time has come to discover some effective old-fashioned remedies.
When we buy new towels, they are very soft to the touch. Frequent washing, however, could turn them rough and scratchy.
From the amount of detergent used, to the type of wash, to the use (or not) of fabric softeners, to how we dry them: these are all elements that can affect fabrics. Given this, read on for some good towel-washing tips.
What should be added to the fabric softener drawer to get soft towels?

First of all, to ensure that the towels do not lose their softness, it is best not to wash them at high temperatures. These could damage the fibers of the towels and cause roughness. It is best to use cold or lukewarm water combined with only a little detergent. In fact, too much detergent can only cause fiber damage.
But there is a tip that perhaps not everyone knows about and some natural ingredients that can help you out. Have you ever tried, for example, putting lemon juice in the fabric softener drawer? Squeezing one or two lemons to get half a glass of lemon juice and adding it as a softener when washing towels will give you excellent results - not only in terms of softness, but also for fragrance.
The same thing is true for another ingredient that almost all of us have at home and which is very cheap.

White wine vinegar, yes, that's right! This is an excellent ally for scenting and softening to our towels. Just a teaspoon in the fabric softener compartment is sufficient. The reason why vinegar works is very simple: its acidic composition dissolves any residue of detergents or fabric softeners that have become "stuck" between the fibers of the towels in previous washes. Indeed, when there is an accumulation of detergent residue in the towels, they become rough and stiff.
You also need to remember to use a delicate wash cycle and do not leave towels in the washing machine for too long. Excessive humidity could permanently fade their colors, the fragrance and even their softness.
So, pay attention to how you wash your towels and follow these tips: the results and financial savings will amaze you.
