Many people dream of soft and fluffy bed linen that is pleasant to the touch.
You can achieve this effect without using fabric softener, using simple and affordable means.
Soda is a natural softener
Soda is a universal product that can also be used to soften laundry.
It neutralizes detergent residues, eliminates water hardness, and makes fabric soft and pleasant to the touch.
To soften your laundry, simply add half a glass of baking soda to the washing machine drum along with the powder.
Vinegar – for softness and freshness
Vinegar also has a softening effect, eliminates unpleasant odors, refreshes linen, and preserves color brightness.
To soften laundry, add half a glass of vinegar to the fabric softener compartment.
Salt - to preserve color and shape
Salt helps to preserve the brightness of the color and shape of the linen. It prevents the fabric from fading and reduces the formation of pellets.
To do this, add half a glass of salt to the drum of the washing machine when washing colored laundry.
Tennis balls – for fluffiness
Tennis balls help fluff up your linens and make them fluffier. They prevent the filling in pillows and blankets from clumping.
To do this, place two or three tennis balls in the washing machine drum along with the laundry.
Proper drying
Proper drying also affects the softness of the laundry. It is recommended to dry the laundry outdoors or in a well-ventilated room.
Avoid over-drying your laundry as this will make it stiff and unpleasant to the touch.
Ironing
Ironing makes linen smooth and soft. It is better to iron linen slightly damp, using the steam mode.
Choice of fabric
The choice of fabric also plays an important role. Natural fabrics such as cotton, linen, bamboo are softer and more pleasant to the touch than synthetic ones.
