If your answer is wash with extreme care and caution, then you have the right idea.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">Cleaning silk can come across as complicated because it requires a lot more labour than normal clothes. If you own silk garments, then you know that some just can&#8217;t be thrown into the washing machine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">So, here\u2019s a quick guide for the proper way of washing silk.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\">How To Wash Silk Clothing<\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\">Read the label first<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">Trust me when I say this, the label knows what\u2019s best! There are instructions on the label for a reason; we must follow a specific procedure to get things done the right way. Check the label to see if its machine washable, hand washable or dry clean only. This is the very first crucial step in the know-how of washing your silk properly.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\"><strong>Wash gently in cold water<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">whatever way the label says you must wash your clothes, always wash them in cold water. For a machine wash, use the delicate cold wash cycle and for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/blog\/how-to-hand-wash-clothes\/\">hand wash<\/a> fill a basin with cold water. This maintains the delicacy of the fabric along with the help of a gentle detergent. Avoid washing silk with heavy garments and only wash with similar fabrics.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\">Dry naturally<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">Just as you would do to dry yourself after a shower, use a towel to dry silk. Simply place the silk garment on a flat towel and roll it gently like you\u2019re making a Swiss roll; this<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">\u00a0will get rid of the excess water. Then, hang or lay out flat to completely dry. Avoid using the tumble dryer as this will ruin the delicate fabric.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">If that\u2019s too much to handle, let<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com\/en-gb\">Laundryheap<\/a> <span style=\"color: #808080;\">take care of your silk garments.
