How to Wash Your Sarees by Hand
1st step: Cold Water Washing
The best way to care for your silk saree is to wash it by hand. When hand-washing this cloth, make sure to use cold water. Soak your saree in a big bucket filled with cold water.
Step 2: Pour in the vinegar
Mix 2 tbsp. vinegar into the bucket well. Allow your silk saree to soak for 15-20 minutes in this solution.
Step 3: Make Sure the Color Doesn’t Fade
After that, wash your saree in another bucket of cold water. When washing your silk saree, always use a light detergent. Your saree’s fabric will be cleaned as well as protected using a gentle detergent. Silk clothing require special attention, and a gentle detergent may help tremendously. Love and Care, which is accessible on the market, is a product we suggest.
Step 4: Give Your Saree a Good Rinse
Rinse your saree after removing it from the washing water. You may either gently rinse it in a pail of water or under running water.
Step 5: Hang Your Saree to Dry
Place your damp saree on top of a dry towel. After that, drape a dry towel over the silk saree. Roll the towel over your saree carefully and squeeze out the excess water. After the surplus water has been removed, air should be introduced.
Step 6: Store it Correctly
Wrap your silk saree in a muslin cloth and put it in your cabinet after it is totally dry.
