After wearing them for a few months, jeans no longer look as vibrant as they once did.

It's all about the many washes that result in the denim fabric becoming duller in color.

However, it is possible to avoid this unpleasant phenomenon. And it is advisable to act immediately after the new wardrobe item has been purchased.

So, before the first wash, you need to carry out one simple procedure.

The essence of life hack

New jeans should be placed in a basin of salt water.

The duration of such soaking should be 12 hours.

After the procedure is completed, the jeans can be washed. Now the owner of the clothes can be sure that the jeans will retain their original color for a very long time.

The wardrobe item will look like new for many years.

However, there is an important nuance: the “salty” treatment of jeans must be carried out before the first wash.

If you put the item in a basin with liquid and salt after the item has been in the washing machine for the first time, the procedure will be pointless and will not help preserve the bright color.
