Dry towels the right way: It is not just about cleaning a towel, it’s about how often you wash it, how you wash it and how you dry it. Wash your towels after every three uses. Use less detergent to avoid stiffness. For smell, add baking soda to the washing drum (not the detergent tray). Also, skip fabric softeners, they are ruining your towels. Never hang towels on a hook, they stay damp and become bacteria factories. Dry them wide open, in sunlight or full airflow. A clean towel is equivalent to better hygienic plus zero odour. 

Test new clothes first: How can you tell if new clothes will release colour? Try this hack before washing to save your other clothes. Put a bit of liquid detergent on a corner of the cloth and dip that part in warm water. Leave it like that for five minutes. If the water colour changes, it means the cloth will release colour.
