Over time, bath towels lose their absorbency .
Why ? This is largely due to the detergent dosage.
The dosages indicated on the detergent packets are much higher than the amount actually needed.
As a result, detergent residue accumulates inside the fibers, which causes the towels to lose their absorption quality.
The solution is to use white vinegar and baking soda to give them a second life:

1. Wash your towels with 2 hot wash cycles, but WITHOUT using detergent or fabric softener.
2. For the first cycle, replace the detergent with 250 ml of white vinegar.
3. For the second cycle, use 115 g of baking soda.
There you go, your towels have regained their absorbency.
