Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.
Want to add in here, that some washing mechanics can't handle the homemade detergent mix. I've damaged one or two with the mix. Not entirely sure as to the reason, but I believe it has something to do with the grated soap bar clogging something somewhere.
Am I the only one who likes fabric softener? For me it was a game changer to go from wrinkly, stiff clothes to softer, less wrinkled clothes.
I definitely don't use it every wash, but I do think it makes a real difference.
I wouldn't be caught dead using dryer sheets, though. That's a scam.
You don't need dryer sheets if you're hang drying your clothes, which reduces wear on the clothes and uses less energy, along with requiring one less appliance, unless you have a combo washer/dryer.
I started hang drying my clothes maybe 4 years ago and I'm definitely not going back
I've been hang drying for a decade. Moved house recently, treated myself to a dryer. My god clothes feel so much softer now. Especially towels.
Fabric softener / dryer sheets make clothing feel disgustingly slimy.
Been using a set of wool dryer balls from Trader Joe's for years. Haven't had to use fabric softener at all.
How do I make my own fabric softener tho? One of the things it does is condition the fabric like you condition your hair, to keep its strength and retain its shape. Like if your shirt's neck has become a little stretched out, wash it with some fabric softener and it usually fixes that shit.
I'd DIY my own if I could. I'll probably start using this detergent recipe, too.
