What Are The Different Types Of Fabric Softener?
There are three main types of fabric softener: liquid, dryer sheets and dryer balls. Liquid fabric softener is added to the washer during the rinse cycle and can be used with most types of fabrics. Dryer sheets are tossed into the dryer with the clothes and work by permeating the fabric with a thin layer of softening agents. Dryer balls are usually made of plastic or wool and work by physically agitating the clothes during the drying cycle, which helps to soften them. Some fabric softeners are scented while others are unscented.
