Towels and other products from terry cloth after washing can become stiff, barely dry. This makes them extremely unpleasant to the touch. Therefore, many housewives are trying to figure out ways in which things can return to their former softness.
Reasons for stiffness
In order to choose the right way to return softness to things, it is worthwhile to find out the reason that led to its loss. Towels can become stiff in such cases:
- Poor water quality, increased rigidity. In the presence of impurities and salts harmful to the condition of the tissue, they can accumulate in the fibers and give them coarseness.
- The powder is of poor quality. After rinsing, its fragments are retained in the fibers and work to deteriorate the properties of the tissue.
- Wrong approach to washing. When choosing a wash with many turns, you can inflict considerable damage on the pile of towels. Because of this, it loses good properties, deteriorates and becomes not particularly pleasant to the touch. At very high water temperatures, product stiffness can also increase.
- Drying is not done according to the rules. When drying terry fabrics near heating appliances, the influence of heaters makes hard not only air, but also towels.
Useful Tips
Do not use powders to wash towels made of terry cloth, if you want to keep them fluffy. The same is true for a large amount of conditioning agent. Particles of funds tend to accumulate in the fibers of the fabric, towels turn into coarse, stiff. It is considered reasonable to perform the wash after three times the use of products.
When washing at temperatures from 30 degrees, you destroy the bacteria that have accumulated during use. But more than 40 degrees do not need to be set. It is better to dry terry products in the air - hanging them after washing on radiators, you will end up with a towel as hard as a board.
