Never knew this, thank you!
No problem! I learned the hard way it does make a difference to separate the hard whites from the soft whites.
My mom would tell me this too! I cherish her valuable lessons. Thank you so much for this awesome advise! Brings me back memories to my mom’s life teachings.
I wonder if the dryer actually contributes to making white T-shirts and white socks dingy.
Do you wash white clothes in hot or cold water?
😮
Thanks for the tip because I thought white was white. I never knew there was a soft white or hard white. I always learn something new when I watch your channel
You are so welcome!. Now, you will not here other laundry experts talk about soft whites and hard whites. This is something I came up with after washing grubby little socks that kids have been running around in and such and then having to wash my husband's white dress shirts. Oh yeah! It does make a difference to sort those into soft and hard. What are you laundry challenges?
@ThisandThatwithDeniseJordan Great idea to create a hard and soft white category - it makes good sense. My laundry challenge is keeping my husband from drying large amounts of clothing at once. I have a thing for drying in small units with like items. For example, I would never dry colored, casual shirts and colored towels together. I dry towels separately. My husband will throw everything into the dryer in an attempt to "help" out but it drives me bananas 😁
@@barbarareel71mom1son04 Barbara, I get it. My husband is very similar in his washing routines. You either have to try to educate him kindly or just let him do it his way. You don't want him to not help. Encourage him and encourage him more when he does it the way you need it done.
As a guy who after 40 years can barely understand anything related to laundry, I greatly appreciate this, and you. Thanks.
Good to know. I never knew to separate the dirty white clothes from the less dirty white clothes in the washing machine but I did it instinctually when I hand wash items. Thank you for sharing.
Glad it was helpful! And yes...it does make a difference in the machine as well as in hand washing.
I love that your helping young students not everyone was taught theses things before leaving home. Love this page ! Hope your on TikTok and every platform for all young adults to see ❤
Subhana Allah! Never knew that there were different types of whites. Thank you.
I love what you're wearing...so stylish
Thank you. It’s comfortable and easy.
Nice classification of white between soft white and hard white.
Very easy to understand and remember.
Thank you so much.
I am 64 years old and I did t know this. Thank you
You are welcome. I'm glad to help.
Thank you!!! I ordered those mesh bags you recommended in another video. Awesome tip! I know this will be just as awesome
Thank you. Keep those whites sorted.
Thank you so much !! It’s been so long since I’ve had my mom ( not that you could be my mom you stunning woman you 😊) so I just love to come on RUclips and fine someone like you that really knows what she is talking about to teach me what I should really know at my age lol.
Thank you again. I’m going to start tonight using your suggestions ♥️🇨🇦
Man… this is really cool. I truly learned something new and applicable! Thank you so much!!
Glad to help. What other laundry challenges do you have?
Thank you for sharing this! I had never heard but it makes so much sense!
I still dont know how to get my t shirt clean, help!
OMG! Where have you been all my life? Thank you for sharing this. I was just thinking there has to be a better way to maintain my clothes and boom! My laundry will never be the same! 🙌🏾🥹
I’m so happy I found you❤️! I lost my mom November 2022 and I can’t call and ask her these things anymore 😭
Jasmine, I am so sorry you lost your mom. I know how that feels. Please. Hit me up with your homekeeping questions and for homecoming questions here’s a great resource…Ebony, Ivy, and Thyme in the Kitchen with Leona Dooley. She’s an amazing home cook and her very patient. You will love her. We are two peas in a pod!
Omg this makes sense. Thanks! ❤
Great tip! I’m going to look on your channel and see if I can find how you wash your whites 😊😊❤️

Never Thought of this Thank you 😇🙏🏽✨
This is some good information, keep it coming!
Thank you!! I’ve been wondering why our nice white shirts were having these brown type stains
Yes. You've got to separate your whites if you want to keep them nice. Oh...do you have hard water? That could be a problem.
I knew this and was going back and forth w/ someone about it. Thanks for proving me right. 😅😊
This is so helpful! Thank you!
This Lady is a life saver when I first moved to my own apartment
Omg... your so adorable... thank you for the advice ❤
Thank you Ms. Denise! The distinction is very helpful - separating them now!
thank you, very helpful^-^🖤!
Denise you the one ☝🏼
Thank you for the info!
Awesome job so proud of you!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😍🤘🏽
Tiffani! Thank you so much for stopping by. I really appreciate it.
god I miss my mum
❤
thank you alot I I never of thought of it that way makes sense
Never knew love,thk u
I trick I learned to whiten dingy tshirt while incarcerated since they wash colors and whites together is to soak the dingy T-shirt’s in POWDER TIDE. Use your own judgment as to how much Tide to use. I used to use 1/2 a cup for just several T-shirt and a few white socks. Do small batches . You will notice a big difference in whiteness. Bleach degrades the fabric.
Never knew that…thank you ❤
I'm glad I was able to help. Separate those hard whites and soft whites. It does make a difference.
I use iron out or white brite. Best for those stubborn stains
Thank You
thank you ! didn’t know this !
Thank you
helpful, thanks! ☺️
Much appreciated,what laundry recipe do you use to keep white clothing white for a very long time???
Thanks didn't know this💜
😁😎👌👍thank you ,my sweet lady , for sharing
I’m so happy I found your page! I have a white soft cotton mix polyester shirt, however it has a metallic print on it, and there are some stains on it after I washed it, not too dark but I have no idea how to use the bleach to not ruin the shirt, it’s practically brand new I got it a month ago and I don’t want to ruin it
Lara…don’t use bleach. Try baking soda to lift the stain. I’ve got a short about how to do that but start there. Hopefully it’s not been put in the dryer since you tried to get the stain out. The dryer sets the stain and makes them more difficult to remove, but make a baking soda paste. Put it on the stained area and let it sit for about 15 minutes. Then give it a good scrub. Rinse. See if the stain is gone. If not repeat the process. However, if you’ve put the garment in the dryer already the stain may not come completely out. Let me know.
I didn't know this! I've been washing them together forever. Thank you for teaching us something new.
You are welcome.
I'm learning!
I'm glad I was able to help. You've got those little ones so I know about grungy socks. It's a struggle to keep them white. How are you doing? It's been a minute since we've talked.
Thank you❤
Ah good to know! Thanks so much
Happy to help!
Thank youuuuu
❤❤❤thank you!! I didn’t have a mom to show me
Thanks just taught me how to wash my white shirt not with my socks, Thankyou for that knowledge and wisdom.
Just heard someone mention your name on Anthony O'Neal's channel . I need this information in my life!!
Now that is interesting. I met him at a RUclips conference. I'll have to try to find that mention.
I love you Denise
Hi! Praise the Lord! Are under white shirts considered hard or soft whites?
Thank you for this! What’s the best way to make white socks white again?
Ty g
So White T’s get washed with the socks? Where more shirts you wear on the outside blouses, dress shirts and such wash in separately?
Appreciate it I never knew why i needed to separate my clothes
I need to move in with you 😊😊
Who is this guy?!? Love it, I’m subscribing!
I love your outfit 😌
It funny but I always wear the same thing for the laundry lab. It's just a habit I got into. It's comfortable and friendly.
How do we keep socks White?? Which products to use??
Do you know why bleach might turn something white, yellow? I tried bleaching a stain on my sons white sweatshirt....now it's just a yellow spot. I've washed it again to no avail...
That's exactly why I do my own laundry
Im now at the point of my life where I would rather watch this than Vlogs of funny people
What if you didn’t do this and now your soft whites have dark stains? Is there anything that can be done for that?
🤯 wah?!? I never knew this!
Thanks good to know
Happy to help Give it a try and let me know how it works for you.
I kind of look like a hard white unfortunately but I like to think of myself as a soft white on the inside. How can I remove the grungy dirt and grass stains off my socks and tee-shirts, or is it too late for them? Bleach didn't seem to do anything :(
You might be able to brighten them a bit with work. Try a whitener like OxiClean White Revive.
Watching This channel is like having a mother on my phone lol
I want Hotel White Towels!
OMG I have been mixing them the whole time 😂
Well, that could lead to some dinginess on your soft whites. I encourage you not to mix them. Unless, over time, you want a uniform shade of dinginess.
I never thought to separate my whites but this makes sense. Sometimes I will use so much bleach and some stuff still doesn’t come back white 😭.
Bleach can tend to yellow whites. I avoid it. Separate your soft whites from your hard whites and then use a brightener like OxiWhite Revive or Dirty Labs Laundry Booster. You’ll get better results.
You're a beautiful person ❤
My water bill has just gone up. 😮
What washing detergent do you use on both whites??
Hi Vanessa. Great question. Here’s the deal…right now, I’m crushing on Dirty Labs. Before that…Persil. However, it’s not sooooo much the detergent, and yes…the soooooo was intentional…but how you wash them. I almost always use OxiClean White Revive to help keep those whites bright. Not bleach because bleach can cause yellowing over time but OxiClean White Revive. Also…don’t forget to sort those hard whites from soft whites. It absolutely does make a difference between dull, dingy whites and bright whites. Got another question? Let me know how I can help.
@homemakingwithdenise Thank you. I am going to separate hard and soft white. I never knew this. I will check out the Oxi Clean white. Thank you so much!
I never knew this 😂😂😂
What can I do for clothes that are most white but have other colors in them?
Hi Kid…great question. I would work with the other colors. By that I mean if it’s blue and white or multicolored, wash in cold water and use a color catcher to prevent color drifting. NO chlorine bleach. That’s what I would do. What other laundry challenges do you have?
It’s funny, I separate color towels, jeans and shirts but I never did with the whites. Now I know. Thank you!
You are quite welcome.
Can you show how you wash them?
I will do that.
Having sessions with things like this in churches can save marraiges more than counselling.
she just tryin to separate whites now!
That denim skirt
Why didn't my mum teach me this. Thank you internet mama
Hmm. We don't have much "soft whites", I think. Except my husband's white button-downs, maybe. So far, have pre-washed the white socks before adding the t-shirts. Maybe I should switch over to your method... Thankfully, my washer allows for different load sizes. Even mini loads for a fistful or two of socks! 😉😄👍
Your husband's button down shirts count as soft-whites. That's what I mostly have...my husband's white shirts and my white blouses for soft whites.
Ma!!!!! I was 41 years old when I learned not to wash white shirts with white socks😢😮😢😮
This is a good video. I've been making this mistake and wondering why mines aren't white.
Now that you know, you can tweak your routine. It will make a difference. Now...if your soft whites are a bit dingy, you can revive them with White Revive by OxyClean. Let me know if that helps.
@@homemakingwithdenise it does. Thank you!
What if you have white dress socks? 🤔🤔🤔
Hmmm. If you have white dress socks the idea is still the same. If the socks have to be white white, don't wash them with grungy whites or soak them first and then wash them.
Were did you get the sheif
I'm thinking Lowe's? You can probably find something similar on Amazon.
I never separated my whites. This makes sense tho
It absolutely does. I watched children run around outside in their stocking feet. You can imagine what the socks looked like and unfortunately, over time, it doesn’t all come out but it does transfer to your softer white shirts and blouses. That’s how I learned to differentiate from soft whites and hard whites.
Where have you been my whole life? I stop wearing white because of the whole cleaning process
Deus abençoe sempre vc
But you still didn't tell us what to use to restore them back to bright whites . Bleach doesn't take all of the dinge out of your hard white clothes . ( I know, I've tried and failed so many times ). I need to know how to restore them back to bright white, so I don't have to keep throwing away or using stained t-shirts for cleaning rags, while constantly buying new ones . And dyeing them ? Forget it, I've tried it . The stains, ( especially rust and certain oil stains ), show through the colors, unless you dye everything black .
Oh! I am sorry. What I do to restore brightness is OxiClean White Revive. It will take some of the dinginess out. Depending upon how long and how deep determines if you can get it all out. Just keep trying with the OxiClean White Revive and you should see a difference, let me know how this works for you.
Thank you. My girl seriously would get upset because she thinks it extra work to wash the socks separate. Why would you want to wash something that goes on your body with socks that are on the ground and get stinky. I wash my own clothes now lol🤦🏼♂️
Nice
Thanks
I know how to keep white shirts white and super stain free.
Don't ever wear them. :)
You are too funny!
That's how I managed to keep my white jeans in top condition. I don't dare to wear it... 😞
Is a hat hard white
It depends but hats should be washed by themselves with like colors. Here’s how: How to Wash Baseball Caps in the Washing Machine | In the Laundry Lab

Good thing the only white thing I wear is an undershirt. Everything else is either black, red or gray
Now that is funny.
I thought she was going to say to use bluing.
I've never tried bluing. It might be too much trouble. I can see me coming out with a baby blue shirt. My hubby would not be happy.
I think 🤔 I need a wife is 3 loads enough per week 1 for sock 1 jocks 1 clothes and your supposed to separate colour true
Separate white whites like your dress shirts or button down shirts, underwear and gym socks, then lights and darks. You could throw the gym socks in with the lights if needed.
@@homemakingwithdenise cool come to Australia help me do my laundry 😆
