People usually use fabric conditioners to soften their clothes, and the frequency normally depends on personal preferences.

Some clothes even come with labels that provide tips on how often you should use conditioners.

But there are also some general guidelines you should know about.

Consider fabric types

Fabric conditioner is typically used to add softness, reduce static cling, and provide a pleasant scent to fabrics. 

It is commonly used for items such as towels, sheets, bed linens, and clothing made of natural fibers like cotton.

Use it sparingly

Following the manufacturer's instructions, which usually indicate the appropriate amount for each load size, can help prevent overuse.

Balance with detergent

It is important to use an appropriate amount of detergent to effectively clean the clothes, and then use fabric conditioner to enhance the softness and fragrance. 

Consider personal preference

Ultimately, the decision to use fabric conditioner and how often to use it comes down to personal preference. 

Some people prefer using it with every wash to enjoy the benefits it offers, while others may use it occasionally or for specific items. 

Experimenting and finding the frequency that works best for you and your laundry needs can help you determine the right usage pattern.
