Okay, i love Jeans alot and won't like mine to get spoilt quick...
So i learnt these tips and wants to share with you.
- If you want your favourite jeans to last a long time, don’t just treat them like any other article of clothing. A little extra care when washing your jeans can go a long way in extending their life and good looks.
- First, read the care label inside your jeans. If any of the directions for washing contradict what is contained in this article, opt for the manufacturer’s directions as listed on the tag.
- Empty the pockets of your jeans
- Turn your jeans inside out.
- Hot water and jeans don’t mix. If you wash your jeans in hot water, they may shrink and fade!
- NEVER use bleach when washing your jeans as this will cause fading, discolouration and uneven blotches.
- Wash light blue jeans and dark blue jeans separately to avoid dye transfer and colour blotching.
- Black jeans tend to shrink and fade faster than blue jeans. Try adding some regular table salt to the wash water (about ¼ cup), especially the first few times you wash, to lessen fading and shrinkage.
- Hang them on a clothes line or clothes rack to air dry (if indoors, make sure you place a towel underneath to catch the drips). Drying time will vary, but may take as long as two days, so plan ahead if you intend on wearing your jeans soon after washing.
Yea! Happy New Month too.
