Actually, using about half the recommended amount of product while washing your <strong>Turkish Towels<\/strong> is more than enough. You\u2019ll see that this will not only increase your washing machine\u2019s efficiency but also decrease the soapy residue on your <strong>peshtemals<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"912\" src=\"https:\/\/www.peshtemalcity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pisces-turkish-towels-1024x912.jpg\" alt=\"Pisces Turkish Towels\" class=\"wp-image-247\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peshtemalcity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pisces-turkish-towels-1024x912.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.peshtemalcity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pisces-turkish-towels-300x267.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.peshtemalcity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pisces-turkish-towels-768x684.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.peshtemalcity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pisces-turkish-towels.jpg 1090w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>No\nBleach:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chlorine bleach can be very harsh\non the cotton. It weakens and stiffens your <strong>Turkish towel\u2019s<\/strong> fabric. For persistent stains, you can try to use\norganic alternatives such as vinegar or rock salt. You will see that they\nprovide a much better help while cleaning your sensitive <strong>peshtemals<\/strong>. They are also environment-friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>No\nFabric Softners:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unfortunately, our friendly fabric\nsofteners are not so friendly when it comes to <strong>Turkish Towels<\/strong>. They contain silicon, so yes, they soften the\nfabric in the short term but when it comes to the big picture, they actually turn\nyour towels water repellent and make it impossible to wash them perfectly. You\ncan again use vinegar to give your <strong>Turkish\nTowels<\/strong> the softness you desire. One cup of vinegar about every 3-4 weeks is\ncompletely healthy and it definitely provides the softness you seek. It will\nremove the soapy residue and restore the full absorbency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"826\" height=\"971\" src=\"https:\/\/www.peshtemalcity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Beachy-Peshtemal-Peshtemal-City-Peshtemal-Manufacturer-Wholesaler.jpg\" alt=\"Beachy Peshtemal\" class=\"wp-image-150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peshtemalcity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Beachy-Peshtemal-Peshtemal-City-Peshtemal-Manufacturer-Wholesaler.jpg 826w, https:\/\/www.peshtemalcity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Beachy-Peshtemal-Peshtemal-City-Peshtemal-Manufacturer-Wholesaler-255x300.jpg 255w, https:\/\/www.peshtemalcity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Beachy-Peshtemal-Peshtemal-City-Peshtemal-Manufacturer-Wholesaler-768x903.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 826px) 100vw, 826px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Using\nBaking Soda:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mixing half a cup of baking soda\nwith your normal amount of detergent can actually do so much more than you can\never imagine. It has a natural effect of eliminating undesirable odors \u2013such as\nthe forgotten damp towel in your gym bag or the one you used on the beach and\nstill smells like salty water. Baking soda also helps to untighten the fabric\nduring washing and cleans any leftover chemicals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Don\u2019t\nWash Too Many at a Time:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Washing\ntoo many <strong>Turkish Towels<\/strong> at once can\nstrain your machine and leaves no room for your towels to rinse. So washing\neverything at once is not a gain \u2013but usually, a lose. This also goes for every\nkind of textile products you can think of!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.peshtemalcity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/turkish-towel-as-gift-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-287\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peshtemalcity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/turkish-towel-as-gift-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.peshtemalcity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/turkish-towel-as-gift-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.peshtemalcity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/turkish-towel-as-gift.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We hope that our article on <strong>how you should wash your Turkish towels<\/strong> helpfull for you!
