However, you can solve this problem with a simple trick, without expensive conditioners and complicated care. You will only need two tablespoons of a common product to make old and rough towels soft, fluffy, and pleasant to the touch again.
Why terry towels become stiff: how to make them soft and fluffy
During numerous washes, soap and hard water residues accumulate in the fabric, making the towels unpleasant to touch. Their stiffness is also influenced by too hot water and frequent use of the dryer.
To restore the structure of the fibers, you should add two tablespoons of soda or salt to the drum of the machine during washing.
Load the towels into the washing machine.
Add your regular laundry detergent.
Add two tablespoons of soda or salt directly into the drum.
Select the standard washing mode at a temperature of 40-60°C.
After washing, dry the towels outdoors.
What else helps make terry towels soft
Vinegar - add half a glass to the fabric softener compartment. It neutralizes soap residues and makes the fabric softer.
Washing balls or tennis balls help restore the volume of the towels.
Regular washing without overloading the washing machine drum also helps maintain the softness of the fabric.
Proper care of terry towels will not only extend their lifespan but also provide comfort during use. By following these tips, you can easily keep your towels in excellent condition. Your household routine will become more pleasant, and the quality of textiles will improve.
