## 🛁 How to Wash Towels to Keep Them Soft and Fluffy

There’s nothing quite like wrapping yourself in a soft, fluffy towel after a warm shower or bath. But if your towels are feeling rough, stiff, or less absorbent than they used to be, you’re not alone. Over time, towels can lose their plushness due to buildup of detergent, fabric softeners, and minerals from hard water.

The good news? With a few simple washing tricks and care tips, you can restore your towels to their **soft, fluffy glory** — and keep them feeling luxurious wash after wash.

Here’s how to do it.
