How to preserve the color of clothes: 4 simple tips
SSPDaily has prepared tips on how to preserve the color of clothes. Find out the recommendations for maintaining its original brightness.
Use cold water
Hot water can cause the dye to fade, so it is important to choose cold water. In addition, add a cup of white vinegar to the cold water to fix the color and prevent it from fading. This simple yet practical method is often recommended by experienced textile professionals and has proven to be effective in preserving the original color of clothing.
Turn your clothes inside out
This will protect the outer layer of the fabric from friction and reduce fading. This method is especially useful for dark and bright colors.
Air dry in the shade
Direct sunlight can have a bleaching effect on the dyes used in clothes, causing them to lose their original color intensity. Allowing items to air dry in the shade and ironing them at a lower temperature inside out will help to keep the color intact.
Avoid overwashing
Keeping colored clothing out of direct sunlight is also crucial to prevent fading and maintain its brightness.
