What is the proper way to wash towels to keep them as soft as possible....?


I am a new housewife. What is the proper way to wash towels to keep them as soft as possible.... What do you add other than the detergent... or is there special detergent you use?

You can use fabric softener, but you want to be careful and not use too much because if you do your towels will not absorb the water when you try to dry off.

Be sure you rinse all of the detergent out (don't use too much) because left in detergent can make towels stiff.

If you want really absorbant, soft towels, wash with a low suds detergent, HE (high efficiency) or baby detergent, use fabric softener in the first rinse, but rinse twice. Dry in dryer. Hanging on the line makes them hard.

They get their softness in the dryer. Don't use fabric softener on towels...it coats the fibers and makes the towel less absorbant.

febrezzes with downy use the WHOLE collction... your towles smell great and feel great.... when vistors come they wont resist smelling.. i even use it for my sheets and rug and curtains... keeps everything smelling fresh for like 3 days.
