Product Care
The charm of natural dyes lies in it magnificent colors, unevenness and slowly changing overtime. In contrast to chemical dyes, these natural dyed items require a little more attention and love when washing and handling these items. To keep your colors as bright as possible, please pay attention to the following washing instructions.
-How to wash-
It is recommended to launder with ph neutral detergent, which is neither acidic nor alkaline. The natural dyes I use are quite sensitive to unbalanced acidic and alkaline ph levels. Using unbalanced PH detergent could fade or shift the colors of your product.
Both hand wash and the washing machine are fine to use.
Hand wash:
Dissolve a small amount of neutral detergent in lukewarm water and gently press and wash. Keep in water for 15 minutes and done!
Washing-machine
A normal spin with ph neutral detergent is completely fine (In case of vulnerable fabrics, please use hand wash).
After laundering, immediately reshape and flatten the garment, then dry in the shade (natural dyes are vulnerable to the sun and ultraviolet rays, there please dry your garment inside or in the shade).
Please launder separately from white or light-colored items as natural colors may bleed.
