"Detergent sheets", "dryer sheets", it's like you're in a different world with these fantastically strange single-use products :D

They look like a tissue made of rough fiber, do they dissolve or do you have to throw them away after usage? Either way it seems less practical than just adding a bit of powder, but what do I know :)

Another replacement for fabric softener is hair conditioner (diluted with water so it runs better). I only use it when washing polyester fleece, since that gets fiercely static, so it's nice to be able to use a product we already have at home.

Detergent sheets completely dissolve in the wash.

Single-use? I mean ... sure? I guess? The same way a scoop of detergent powder is single-use.
