Before washing any piece of clothing you should take into consideration what the label says. So the first tip of how to wash your jeans will be:
- Check the tagRead the label on your jeans to see if there are any specific jean washing tips that you need to follow. Some jeans should be washed alone on the first wash, or washed very rarely. Make sure to follow the recommended care instructions to prolong the life of your jeans.
- Be gentleTo keep your jeans looking the same way they did when you purchased them, wash the jeans on the gentle cycle. This reduces the wear and tear on your jeans and allows the colors and design to stay intact. Also use a mild detergent and never use bleach.You can use a mild fabric softener if you want your jeans a bit softer.
- Protect the colorTurn your jeans inside out. Washing jeans can be abrasive to fabrics. Not only do clothes rub against one another, but the detergent, along with zippers, buttons, and snaps, can be damaging to the color and fabric. Take care of the color.
