There’s nothing quite like stepping out of the shower or bath and wrapping yourself in a plush, cloud-soft towel. It’s a small luxury many of us associate with five-star hotels or the feeling of brand-new linens, but over time even the softest towels can become rough, stiff and less absorbent. Frequent washing, detergent build-up and hard water can all strip towels of their softness, leaving them feeling scratchy rather than spa-worthy.
The good news is that restoring that freshly laundered feel doesn’t necessarily require replacing your towel collection. Instead with the right care techniques, you can revive tired towels and keep them fluffy for longer at home.
