What to add to water to make towels fluffy and fragrant

Some natural remedies to make towels fluffy can be found in every kitchen, for example baking soda. You don’t need to perform any complicated rituals – just add half a glass to the laundry compartment: the soda will deeply clean the fibers from dust and chemicals and eliminate the musty smell that appears on the towels that end up in the dirty laundry basket, wet and wrinkled.

Did you know that commercial lint and scent additives for towels are harmful to them in the long run? For example, the scent of air conditioners has a dark side: this product envelops the villi, trapping dirt and bacteria and preventing them from absorbing moisture. What to do? Use 9% white table vinegar instead of conditioner – pour half a glass into the conditioner compartment.

At the same time, it is possible to flavor the towels using homemade additives: choose the essential oils you prefer and add a few drops of vinegar which you pour into the washing machine.

Lifestyle writer and blogger Allison Dittmer recommends combining baking soda and vinegar, a tip her grandmother once gave her, and Allison still uses it today. Once a month, Dittmer recommends giving your towels a special treatment: first wash them with a glass of 9 percent white vinegar instead of regular laundry detergent, then run the cycle again — this time with a glass of baking soda soda.

Deyan Dimitrov, owner of a laundry and dry cleaning service, also advises paying attention to what happens after washing: cotton fabric can become stiffer when dried. To prevent this from happening, Dejan advises first hanging the towels in the air, and when they are almost dry, putting them in the dryer for 10 to 15 minutes and turning on the gentle drying mode to “inflate” the fluff a little.
