You don't need fabric softener at all if you use those blue plastic spiky dryer balls, or better yet, throw a clean tennis shoe in the dryer with the clothes. Your clothes will come out fluffier.

I used a softener flakes in my cloths. Are softener flakes a raw material for the hair conditioner or not?

When you wash wool fabric or yarn. Remember wool is actually HAIR... so rinse it with hair conditioner. It will be SO soft, & you'll be glad you did!
And don't for get that angora & mohair are also made from hair... So remember to rinse these with an inexpensive hair conditioner added to the water too!

I have used Flex hair conditioner for my handwashing for years. I like the fragrance and it makes my nylons/pantyhose less likely to snag. I suggest that you try it on a small load of not so good towels, just in case...Good luck.

You could use the conditioner for the fabric softner, about 1/15 ratio should do it. REvise as necessary. However, at no time, do the reverse. Fabric softner contains trace minerals that, if you color or perm your hair, the chemicals can actually melt the hair.

Yes! I've seen the Queen of Clean talk about this, wait one sec...Her book Talking Dirty with the Queen of Clean says to use conditioner instead of softner, but she doesn't give the dilutions. Try looking on her website or googling hair conditioner as fabric softner, I know you'll find the right "recipe" out there.
