I just made a batch of homemade fabric softener. It takes about 5 minutes to complete and it's so easy to put together. I used a combination of a couple of different hair conditioners because I didn't have enough of one to make up a whole cup, but stick with one if you want a consistent scent. The scent is not overwhelming, and the smell of vinegar completely disappears altogether.
Ingredients:
1 c. conditioner (I used Suave and VO5 because that's what I had on hand)
3 c. warm water
1 1/2 c. white vinegar
Put all the ingredients together in a mixing bowl and whisk until incorporated. The warm water will help dissolve the conditioner into one homogenous mixture. Pour into a container to store it (I used a recycled Juice bottle) and use what you normally would in your washing machine's softener slot. If you want a stronger scent play around with adding essential oils.
Happy Washing!
