2. Understanding the Science
The hardening of towels is often caused by the accumulation of detergent residue and fabric softener, which can coat the fibers. Minerals in hard water can further exacerbate this problem. Over time, these deposits build up, causing towels to become stiff and less absorbent. The key to soft, fresh towels lies in removing these unwanted residues.

Her establishment is known not only for its beautiful surroundings but also for the impeccable quality of service, including the luxuriously soft and fragrant towels she provides to her guests.
