What laundry detergent do you all use?

I seem to be noticing my dark clothes keep fading after each wash, which I know is pretty normal, but I think my detergent has something to do with it as well. Also, does washing your color clothes in hot water make a difference?

 

whatever decent brand is on sale :uhhok: currently im using arm & hammer liquid detergent

 

color + hot water = not good

theres this woolite detergent made for dark colored clothing... havent tried it yet

 

i wear all black most of the time, the woolite for darks is good compaired to others

 

follow the garment manufacturer's recommended care instructions.

usually it's not the detergent, but the water. we have really hard water here so it wreaks havoc on dark colors. it's so hard in fact, showers feel like it's raining nickels on me.

 

All

 

coldwater tide fresh scent liquid.. yes clothing can fade with washing, especially if its cotton and darks can fade more noticeably. hot water can remove the color and shrink the material especially if its cotton.. the dryer can shrink them too..

 

All scent-free, hypo-allergenic, cold water wash.

 

Tide whatever, but i pay more close attention to each garment's instructions.

 

i use tide.

hot water on the first wash sets dye but may also shrink your clothes.

best way to preserve darks, while expensive, is dry cleaning them...

btw, im borderline obsessive with the way i care for my clothes :uhhok:
