In order to extend the service life of clothes, we can master some correct methods of cleaning and maintaining clothes:
1. Classified washing: sort the clothes according to their material and Classify colors to avoid damage or staining when different items of clothing are mixed with each other. Especially for dark and light colored clothes, try to wash them separately to prevent the mixing of pigments.
2. Gentle washing: Choose an appropriate detergent and washing mode, and try to avoid using overly powerful detergents and high-temperature washing. For some special fibers such as wool, silk, etc., it is recommended to hand wash or choose a special laundry bag for machine washing.
3. Avoid soaking for too long: Avoid soaking clothes for too long to avoid deformation or fading. During the cleaning process, try to minimize rubbing and friction. You can gently rub or rinse to protect the integrity of the clothing fibers.
4. Drying method: When drying clothes, avoid direct sunlight and high temperature drying. You can choose a cool place with good ventilation. For some clothes that are easily deformed, such as sweaters, you can dry them horizontally or hang them on hangers to avoid stretching and deformation.
5. Storage method: Store clothes in a dry and ventilated place to avoid bacterial growth and mildew caused by excessive humidity. Before storing for an extended period of time, it’s a good idea to organize, fold, or hang your clothes to avoid stress and deformation.
6. Maintenance of accessories: In addition to the clothes themselves, attention should also be paid to the maintenance of accessories on the clothes, such as buttons, zippers, etc. Avoid excessive pulling force or collision to avoid damage or falling off.
In addition, each item of clothing should be properly washed and cared for according to its material and washing instructions. If you are unsure about how to dispose of clothing, it is recommended to check the instructions on the clothing label or seek professional advice. Proper cleaning and care of your clothes can help extend the life of your clothes and keep them looking and feeling good.
