HAND WASHING

When washing naturally dyed garments, use cold water and use a pH-neutral soap. It’s completely normal for the dye to bleed slightly during the first few washes.

MACHINE WASHING

You can machine wash naturally dyed clothing on a cold, delicate cycle, but always wash with similar colors. Always use a pH-neutral soap. Just keep in mind that machine washing may cause more fading than hand-washing.

TIPS AND TRICKS

Avoid wringing or rubbing the fabric, as this could create streaks.

pH SENSITIVITY

Since natural dyes are sensitive to pH and chemicals, opt for a pH-neutral, biodegradable detergent, and avoid contact with acidic substances, like lemon juice, while wearing.

LIGHT FADING

Always hang naturally dyed garments to dry out of direct sunlight, as too much sun can fade the colors.
