Salt

Regular salt will also help to restore softness. It is necessary to dilute only 100 g of bulk product in a basin with 5 liters of water. Both sea and table salt can be used.

After the procedure, it is advisable to rinse the towels in clean water to remove any remaining product that may have been absorbed.

Soda

Towels should be soaked in the soda solution after the main wash. It is better to leave the towels in the solution overnight and in cold water.
