interesting thread on dryer sheets
ive always felt the best thing you can do for your clothes is to stop using dryers entirely. instead, hang your laundry on drying racks (there are also ones for handwashing sweaters). but this may not be realistic for ppl who use laundromats

my other laundry tip is that some t-shirts should be washed in laundry bags. t-shirts are made from jersey—making them similar to sweaters. if the material is thin and the collar is not very sturdy, it can get stretched out in the wash. putting them in a bag reduces stretching
some ppl asked about stains.
there are two types of stains: water-based stains (e.g., juice, sweat) and oil-based stains (e.g., pizza dripping, salad dressing). always take oil-based stains to dry cleaner. water-based stains can be treated by pre-soaking in OxiClean

If you want a deep dive, check out the white papers at Rave FabriCARE, the best dry cleaner I know of in the United States (they take mail-ins). Stu over there has written some very long papers on various cleaning questions, including care of dress shirts

You can also purchase Cheryl Mendelson's book Home Comforts, which covers how to care for anything in your home, including clothing items. Secondhand copies can be had for just a few bucks online, although purchasing a new copy supports the author and their work.
