Can Last Longer: Five Major Mistakes When Washing Bed Linen
Experts note that special attention should be paid to washing bed linen.
Therefore, it is worth examining several typical mistakes due to which it can wear out quickly.
Washing machine overload
One of the most common mistakes is overloading the washing machine with bed linen.
This can lead to uneven washing and wear of fabrics. It is recommended to wash bed linen in small batches to ensure high-quality washing and to maintain its integrity.
Using too much detergent
Using too much detergent can be harmful to your bedding. Excess detergent can accumulate in the fabric and cause skin irritation or even deteriorate the quality of the material.
Follow the instructions on the detergent package and use the recommended amount.
High temperature washing and drying
Excessively high washing and drying temperatures can damage fabric fibers and shorten the life of the garment.
Bedding is generally best washed at low temperatures and air dried or dried at low temperatures to maintain its softness and color.
Use of bleaches and harsh chemicals
Using bleaches and harsh chemicals can damage the fabric and cause allergic reactions in family members.
It makes sense to use various tricks when washing. For example, if you add vinegar to the conditioner container, the bed linen will become softer.
Improper storage
After washing, bed linen should be stored properly to avoid it becoming wrinkled and losing its freshness.
It is important to fold your laundry neatly and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
It is also worth remembering that if bed linen is stored for a long time, it is better to wash it and only then use it.
