"Hi, my name is Leslie Moselle. I'm from Tampa, Florida and on behalf of Expert Village this is how to do laundry. The next thing you want is to gather your softeners and detergents. One thing that is that is a must is your detergent. The type of detergent is up to you, there are all basically the same depending on the size and you can get a certain amount out of a certain size. The rest of the softeners and the bleach those are options. Not everyone likes to use Clorox or bleach on their clothing which are used for these whites. Sometimes they fear that it would turn their clothes yellow or the way that it reacts with the water may discolor the clothing. So that is an option that some people may feel that it is too harsh for their clothes and for whites to get your clothes as white and as clean as possible. As you do use the detergent on your clothes. Your next things are the softeners and there are two types of softeners; there is liquid softener and the fabric softener sheets. Now with the liquid softener you are going to put that in the Downy ball or the washer itself when your rinse cycle comes around. The liquid softener is something that you use on its own and the softener sheets are something that you put in the dryer with your clothes at that time. These are the essentials in doing laundry you do have some options in which one you use but as long as you have these items you can wash any of your laundry and that is it. "
