If towels are extremely stiff or smelly:
1. First wash (vinegar only)
- Wash towels with hot water
- Add 1 cup vinegar
- No detergent
2. Second wash (detergent only)
- Wash again with normal detergent
- No vinegar
This two-step process helps remove heavy buildup completely.
š§¼ Why vinegar is better than fabric softener
Many people donāt realize that commercial fabric softeners:
- Coat fabric with chemicals
- Reduce towel absorbency
- Can build up over time
- May leave residues in fibers
Vinegar works differently:
- It cleans buildup instead of adding layers
- It does not damage fibers
- It keeps towels naturally absorbent
Thatās why many laundry experts prefer it.
