Fabric softener is a scam. It just coats your clothes in plastic. It will lead to rougher clothes over time.
Your likely over drying your clothes and causing them to be harder and coarser than they need to. Your then compensating with fabric softener.
Interesting. Can you explain how am I over drying my clothes?
Too long in the dryer and they cook. Think of dryered flowers, they go brittle and scratchy when theyβve been dried. When those same flowers are fresh their petals are soft.
I very rarely use the dryer. Only when it's been raining for so many days and I desperately need to wash something. Also I find when I use the dryer, the clothes that drip dry stiff and rough come out much softer.
