    Sorry, but this didn't tell me how to get them soft, it just told me not to use fabric softener. Vinegar? Balls? Tin Foil? What?

      Keep watching him. I can tell you vinegar in rinse water works. I didn't think it did...but it does....first you have to use less soap/detergent than most of us have been using.....this will help get laundry softer.

      @@xanderpromeoNo, but an alternative to vinegar is Downy rinse & refresh. More potent than vinegar, it strips the residue from your clothes during the rinse cycle. It is a game-changer, with the added benefits of naturally softer laundry.

    I just ordered some dryer balls! Fabric softener also irritates my skin (along with a lot of detergents) so I don’t use it often. Now I have a very very good reason to not use the liquid softener! I’ve definitely felt that layer, yeesh

    my Washers fabric softener dispenser broke and i could not be happier. I cut back on my laundry soap and use half as much ( soap clogs your washer). Told to me by a washer repair person. So I decided to give it a shot. It took a few weeks and my towels are so soft. My clothes feel nice. No more static cling. I do use Ecos laundry soap from Costco very light scent. I don't think the kind soap matters. But using too much does. Now my laundry soap goes farther and everything is so soft. I also use only cold water unless I am washing my cleaning rags or dish towels.

      How did the static cling stop? I don't see how that can be avoided if you are in a dry environment and clothes get rubbed on something. How cold is cold for you in degrees? it can vary during the day as the season

      If you can't use a clothesline, then use dryer wool balls in the dryer. That fixes the static cling.

    Notice how not one single fabric softer product EVER list their ingredients...I stopped using fabric softer years ago when a very well known Laundromat/dry cleaners in The city (sydney) told me what that crap can do to your whiltes.
    It basically catches the dirt your trying to rinse out of your clothes and binds them back to the fibres.. . time and time and time again. To me it made sense as fabric softner will leave a layer on your clothes and after a while, whites come out grey.
    Not to mention the nasty carcinogens in there...

      @johndoe-vc1we Рік тому +1

      A better alternative to fabric softener if you like the scent. Scent gets boosted 50% more if you use a dryer so you can cut down on beads if you dry that way compared to line drying.

    Okay, I get that and I've tried. Problem is that we're on a well and have very hard water. The best solution I've found is using epsom salt in the wash, but we still get static in the dryer. Any suggestions? Wool dryer balls? Plastic ones? I've seen both.

    • @charliekim5313
      @charliekim5313 2 роки тому +1

      Try using less soap and maybe and extra rince. I use half the recommended amount recommended by the laundry soap makers. I found once the excess soap was removed from our clothes the static was gone. I also have hard well water. ( Too much Iron) Your washer will love it too, soap gunks up the parts of your washer.

      @Cal Sa - I have watched several videos and heard this man speak on NPR. One of his big things is that we use way too much detergent in too-cold water. He recommends ignoring manufacturers instructions on the containers as they want to sell you more product than you need - use about half of what they say. Also, use warm water as cold does not activate the detergents. Industry standard for cold water washing is 58-63 degrees, whereas cold tap water is actually about 50-53 degrees.
