Some long-standing habits that seemed right may actually be doing more harm.
Sometimes things can't be washed in a machine, so you have to do it by hand. Most often, we are talking about clothes made of delicate fabrics.
However, it turns out that even gentle washing leads to damage to things. Why does this happen? There are several nuances that should be taken into account when hand washing.
Extra effort
To get rid of dirt, many people begin to actively rub problem areas.
With this approach, there is every chance of ruining things made of wool, synthetics, and silk.
It is better to use a stain remover or some folk remedy. Apply, leave for 15 minutes, and then wash carefully.
Spin
Some things should not be wrung out at all. They should be placed so that the water simply drains.
Or you need to gently squeeze the item several times and then place it in a terry towel to absorb the remaining water.
Strong water pressure
An unobvious mistake that can stretch the item. If you apply too much pressure when rinsing, this outcome is quite possible.
Previously, we talked about how to restore softness to towels using an inexpensive drugstore product.
