Hand washing clothes is an easy way to help keep your clothes looking presentable.
At first glance, it seems that there is nothing complicated in the process. But this is not so.
It's actually easy to make mistakes when hand washing that can ruin your favorite items. Let's look at three of them.
For example, many people first put things in a basin, and only then fill them with powder and add water.
Powder sprinkled directly onto the item may end up leaving marks on the fabric.
In addition, this method can easily damage delicate materials. Therefore, first, you should dilute the powder in warm water, and only then put the items in the resulting solution.
Another mistake is that some people may immediately start rubbing the fabric vigorously during the process. But this only damages the fibers. It is much better to first soak the garment for 15 minutes, and then gently rub the stains.
Incorrect rinsing can also cause harm.
Therefore, you should not keep shirts or T-shirts under running water, especially if they are made of delicate and expensive fabrics. It is advisable to rinse them several times in a clean basin.
