Jeans is one of the clothing materials
that people commonly wear. Both male
and female, you’d find people looking
adorable in jean wears almost everywhere you go. You probably have
some yourself. They help you look
smart, classy and that’s why people
have preference for them among other
wardrobe items.
But despite the common nature of jean
wears, the knowledge of caring for them
is not so common. A lot of people who
get charmed by the beauty of jean
wears, only know little about how to
care for them. This is perhaps why your
jeans do not last as long as it should.
Here are some tips to help you care for
your jeans so they last long:
Spot Clean Your Jean
It is safe and completely acceptable to
clean small stains on your denim with
damp cloth and mild soap. It is a stress
free way to prepare your jean for the
next wear. This method is recommended as it reduces the frequency of subjecting your jeans to harsh washing condition and by this, you’re caring for your denim to last longer.
Turn It Inside Out When Washing
You cannot spot clean your jeans forever. After about ten wears, your jeans is ready for a proper wash. Turn your jeans inside out to prevent it from losing its color. They say the way you dress is the way you are addressed. So the fade of your jean reflects your personal style.
To keep your jean looking fresh and not
badly faded, avoid having an aggressive
spin cycle for it.
Remember to clean the pockets! Ink stains should not mess up the pocket of
your jean. Also make sure sand and other dirt materials are not trapped in the pocket of your jeans.
Use The Right Detergent
Have you been told, that the choice of
your detergent is one way to show how
you care for your clothes? Learn which
washing material best suits your cloth.
For jeans, its best not to use harsh soaps, especially those jeans with indigo blue tint. Harsh soaps wash out the indigo blue tint of your jeans.
Preserve the look of your jeans with the
right detergent. Most detergents are
concentrated, so apply little when washing your jeans.
Use cold water and avoid using bleach
I’ve heard that some people soak their
jeans in steaming water to take out the
stains. But it isn’t the best, especially if
you plan to maintain the color of your
jean for long.
Cold water is preferable in washing your
jeans, as it protects it from fading. You
should also avoid using bleach to maintain the nice look of your jean.
Air Dry Your Jeans
It is preferable to air dry your jean after
wash. Another option is using dryers,
but dryers are not the best for your jeans. They cause your clothes to give out lints. It is better to use the natural means of air drying, as it helps to preserve the cloth’s fit and to avoid possible shrinkage or fabric warping.
Also, keep your clothes, not only jeans,
turned inside out when spreading them
out in the sun. This helps to prevents
fading of the cloth and to ensure the
interior parts get dried.
