Okay, so I’ve been seeing this “hex detergent” thing all over my social feeds, and I was like, “What’s the big deal?” I mean, laundry detergent is laundry detergent, right? But everyone was raving about how it gets out all the smells, even from workout clothes, so I figured I’d give it a shot. My gym gear can get pretty ripe, not gonna lie.
The Experiment Begins
First, I gathered all my smelliest workout clothes. You know, the ones that still kinda smell even after you wash them? Yeah, those. I had a pile of shirts, leggings, and socks that were definitely ready for a serious cleaning intervention.
Then, I followed the instructions on the Hex bottle. It was pretty straightforward, just like using any other liquid detergent. I poured the recommended amount into the washing machine’s dispenser. Nothing fancy there.
- Threw in the clothes.
- Set the washer to a warm/cold cycle, like I usually do.
- Hit start!
The Waiting Game
Honestly, the hardest part was waiting for the wash cycle to finish. I was so curious to see if this stuff actually worked. I kept picturing my gym clothes coming out smelling like… well, nothing. Which is exactly what I wanted!
The Moment of Truth
The washer beeped, and I rushed over to check it out. I pulled out a shirt, took a big sniff, and… wow. Seriously, wow. It didn’t smell like perfume, it didn’t smell like “clean laundry,” it just smelled like… nothing. Like fabric. It was amazing!
I checked the rest of the clothes, and they were all the same. No lingering gym smell, no weird chemical smell, just clean. I’m not even kidding, I was kinda shocked. I hung everything up to dry, still kinda amazed.
I put everything back in my gym drawer when it finished air drying.
The Final Verdict
Okay, so I’m officially a Hex convert. This stuff is legit. It really does get rid of those stubborn smells that regular detergent just can’t handle. If you’ve got stinky workout clothes, or any clothes that hold onto odors, you gotta try this stuff. I’m pretty sure my gym bag is gonna thank me, too.
