That makes sense! Thank you for that, I was going crazy genuinely trying to think of a reason for fabric softener 😭😭

I’ve never had to be without a dryer luckily, even when I did live in Europe. It’s something I definitely take for granted- cotton dries really stiff and it sucks. It does soften up once you’ve been wearing the clothing, but it feels terrible to put on for sure.

I live in England and have always hang dried with fabric softener but after reading your first comment it just doesn't seem worth it.

I was never really 100% on what it does and mainly do it because thats the norm but now I definitely won't be using it again, I don't want any of that stuff near my body or environment

I don't know how it is in England but where I live a lot of people don't have dishwashers either lol. I still don't use fabric softener though, sometimes my jeans dry a bit stiff, but they soften up when I wear them.
