In general, our everyday clothes can be washed all at once, but there are some types of clothing that we need to pay extra attention to, such as baby clothes and clothes made from delicate fabrics. Baby skin, especially newborns, is sensitive so it needs special treatment. To avoid allergic reactions or other unwanted reactions, let's take a look at some tips to know when washing baby clothes.

1. Wash all clothes before wearing

Both for newly purchased clothes and clothes given by other people, everything must be washed before your little one uses it. You don't know beforehand where the clothes came from and what they've been exposed to, especially considering that babies' skin tends to be sensitive, it's best if all clothes are washed to avoid irritation or other allergic reactions.

2. Understand the "rules of the game" on clothing labels

Like clothes in general, get to know the "rules of the game" baby clothes before washing for the first time. Baby clothes are usually made of special materials, where you are not advised to use bleach for these materials because it will damage the fabric fibers.

3. Use a net bag

Adult socks are often tucked away or even lost when washed, especially baby socks which are much smaller in size. Use a mesh bag (mesh laundry bag) so that the baby's socks are not lost and the pair is still complete.

4. Choose the right detergent

Use the right and friendly detergent for baby's skin. There are many brands on the market that offer detergents with special formulas for washing baby clothes. Usually, these detergents are unscented because some babies are sensitive to fragrances and the side effects they may cause.

In addition to baby clothes, clothing made from soft materials also requires special treatment. Clothing made from smooth or soft materials is usually made of materials that are easily damaged if washed like other clothes in general. Types of fabrics that are classified as soft include silk, wool, cashmere (cashmere), satin, lace (lace), and other thin materials such as chiffon. These materials are known to be brittle, tear easily, and if washed and dried in the washing machine there is a risk of shrinking in size and even being damaged.

5. Read clothing labels

The best washing instructions are on the clothing label itself. For example, it must be washed in cold water, cannot be ironed, or must be washed by hand. Make sure you read the clothing label carefully so you don't damage the fabric fibers.

6. Separate light colored clothes from dark colored clothes

As with most clothes, divide the laundry into two categories, light and dark to avoid the risk of bleeding dark clothes onto light clothes.

7. Don't soak it too long

If the garment is soaked for too long, the colors may fade and damage trimmings such as beading, sequins or embroidery.

8. Try to wash by hand

The gentle setting on your washing machine is different from washing by hand. Gentle in the washing machine lasts longer so it can damage the fabric. For clothes made of delicate materials, try to wash them by hand so that the clothes last longer.

9. Avoid the dryer

The temperature in the tumble dryer can damage fabric fibers, so avoid using the tumble dryer and allow clothes to dry naturally. After washing properly, clothes must also be stored properly. Delicate clothes are made from natural fibers and tend to wrinkle more easily, so it's best to store clothes in a cupboard that is well ventilated, dark, not damp, and free of dust. Do not place heavier loads of clothing on top of a pile of clothing, as heavier loads can damage the fibers of the fabric.

If you are still unsure or afraid that your clothes will be damaged, it is better to hand them over to an experienced laundry service provider such as aQualis Fabricare.
