The right steps for washing your silk scrunchies

Silk , a delicate and natural fiber, requires proper care to preserve its soft texture and shine. Here are two methods for safely cleaning your silk scrunchies:

1. Hand wash: for optimal care

• Step 1: Fill a bowl with cold water and a small amount of delicate laundry detergent.
• Step 2: Dip your scrunchie into water and gently rub it with your fingers to remove dirt.
• Step 3: Rinse thoroughly with cold water until all traces of detergent are gone.
• Step 4: Gently squeeze out your scrunchie, without twisting it.
• Step 5: Let it air dry flat, away from direct sunlight.

2. Machine wash: practical and safe

If you are short on time, machine washing can also be suitable, provided you take certain precautions:

• Place your scrunchie in a washing net to protect it from friction.
• Use a delicate cycle, at a maximum temperature of 30°C .
• Do not add fabric softener, which could damage the silk fibers.
• Set the spin speed to a low setting to limit stress on the fabric.
• Air dry your scrunchie flat.

Mistakes to avoid

To preserve the quality of your silk scrunchies, here are the actions to absolutely avoid:

• Do not use hot water : it can shrink or weaken the fibers.
• Avoid bleach or harsh stain removers : they can discolor or damage the silk.
• No tumble drying : excessive heat can damage silk.
• Do not twist your scrunchie : prefer a delicate spin to avoid distorting the fabric.

Some tips for a longer lifespan

• Protect your scrunchies from direct sunlight : prolonged exposure can dull or discolor the silk.
• Avoid hot or humid environments : they can damage natural fibers.
• Store your scrunchies in a clean, dry place : an accessory box or dedicated drawer is ideal.
• Limit frequent washing : only clean when necessary.
