1. Do not wash your denim frequently

You should avoid washing your denim jeans and denim dress frequently because they do not need to be washed; they do not get dirty quickly, but if you keep washing them repeatedly, then their color will automatically fade. Due to continuous washing, the fabric of the denim will become loose, and its look will be spoiled.

2. Spot cleaning

Instead of washing denim jeans and denim dresses repeatedly, it is better to resort to spot cleaning to keep your denim safe for a long time. Spot cleaning means that wherever there is a stain in the clothes, just wash that particular spot. For this, you can take a cotton ball or cotton cloth, and by soaking it in mild detergent, you can clean the stained area. This way you will not need to wash your clothes again and again and your clothes will remain fresh and stylish for a long time. Apart from this, after wearing denim clothes, you can dry them in the air. This a better solution to keep your clothes clean and durable.

After wearing denim jeans or a dress, hang it in a well-ventilated area to allow air circulation. This helps remove moisture and odors, reducing the need for frequent washing.

Use cold water

Always use cold water for washing denim clothes because the fabric of the clothes does not get loose in cold water. If we talk about hot water, then washing clothes in this water loosens their fabric a lot, due to which the fitting of clothes gets spoiled further.

5. Choose a Gentle Detergent

Use only mild detergent to wash denim clothes. This will keep your clothes soft and fresh. Washing clothes with mild detergent does not fade the colour of the clothes, and they last for years. If we use a hard detergent, the colour of the clothes will fade, and the fabric of the denim clothes will also get spoiled. Repeating this mistake again and again will spoil the shine of the clothes permanently.

You can also avail yourself of the services of a professional laundry like Tumbledry for proper washing of your denim clothes.

6. Avoid overloading the machine

If you put too many clothes in your machine then there are chances of denim clothes getting damaged and they won’t get washed properly. You always have to try to wash all the denim clothes separately or put them in the washing machine with the rest of the hard clothes for washing. If you put them with soft clothes then your denim clothes won’t get cleaned properly and the soft clothes will get damaged.

Washing too many clothes together causes more friction between the clothes and hence they get spoiled quickly. That is why always wash few clothes at a time and try to wash denim clothes separately.

This will keep your clothes shiny and attractive. If you do not have time to wash your clothes because they are too dirty or due to lack of time or you are not able to take good care of them, then search for the words Tumbledry near me on the internet and take advantage of a professional laundry service.

7. Skip fabric softener while washing denims

Never use fabric softener while washing denim clothes because fabric softener is not the right chemical for denim clothes. That is why you are always advised to avoid fabric softener while washing clothes.

8. Dry in natural air

If you want a long life of your denim dresses and denim jeans, then avoid drying them in the dryer. Often drying clothes in the dryer spoils the fabric of the clothes and they shrink.

For better care, you should dry your denim clothes in natural air. You should also take care that you do not dry them in the sun, but spread them in such a place where they can get good air and dry quickly. After drying them place them in a suitable place. While drying, dry denim clothes inside out so that their color does not fade and instead of hanging them, keep them in a proper place from drying or spread them so that their shape does not get spoiled. 

You can also get denim clothes washed outside, for this you will have to take the help of a professional such as Tumbledry. Here your denim will be washed properly and delivered to your home.

9. Ironing tips

The fabric of denim clothes is quite thick, so there is no need to iron them again and again, in fact you can wear them even without ironing. But if you feel the need to iron them then set your iron to low heat setting or medium heat setting and turn denim inside out and then iron it. Before ironing you can put some water drops on it so that ironing becomes easy for you.

10. Store denim clothes properly

Caring for denim clothes is easy as compared to other clothes, so you do not need to put a lot of effort in it. Apart  washing these clothes, it is important that you keep them folded properly.

Avoid hanging them because the fabric will be stretched and there are more chances of ruining its shape. So, it is better to fold the denim clothes after washing, drying and ironing them and keep them in your wardrobe. If you have a denim dress, you can hang it on a padded hanger.
