Irrespective of whether or not you're into fashion, jeans are the perfect accessory for any outfit. They are reliable and of high quality. You can extend the life of your jeans by learning how to wash them properly.

On the subject of washing denim, there are a lot of different opinions. Hand-washing or machine-washing jeans? That is a contentious issue amongst denim wearers. End the confusion once and for all... You can do both in a safe and correct manner. Everything you need to know about how to wash jeans is here in one place.

Using a Washing Machine to Clean Your Jeans

Make sure to read the wash care label on the jeans before putting them in the washer. Turn them inside out and put them in the washing machine if it's allowed. When washing your jeans, make sure there are no other light-colored garments in the machine at the same time. Your jeans' indigo color may run. Do not mix dark-colored clothing, such as denim, with white or light-colored clothing. To clean your clothes properly, use a good liquid laundry detergent. The kind of detergent designed specifically to keep your clothes (and in particular your jeans) looking and feeling like new for longer! No matter what level of filthiness you're dealing with, you should always use the machine to its fullest potential. Make sure to wash your hands with ice-cold water. In order to keep your jeans clean, it's best to remove them from the dryer while they're still slightly damp. Run your fingers along its edges to smooth out any creases or folds that may have formed. Your jeans will last longer if you follow these instructions.

Hand-washing Your Jeans

If your jeans are embellished with sequins or other embellishments, they must be washed by hand. The tumbling action of a washing machine may damage the delicate embroidery work, so don't do it. Make sure to check the care label on your jeans to see what temperature of water should be used to clean them. Add water to a bucket. Incorporate a high-quality laundry detergent into the mix. If you're not sure how to use something, look it up on the label. The water should now be swirled to ensure that the salt is fully dissolved. Allow the jeans to soak for 15 to 20 minutes in the detergent solution. Drain the filthy water from your jeans by removing them. With a clothes brush, gently remove any detergent residue or dirt that may have accumulated. Spend another 15 minutes soaking your jeans in clean water. To dry your jeans, roll them up and place them on a clothesline to absorb moisture.

When You Wash Your Jeans for the First Time

If it's your first time washing your jeans, we recommend doing so by hand. Make sure to read the care instructions on your clothing. Before washing, turn them inside out. Your new jeans must be washed separately from other lighter-colored items in your laundry in order to prevent the transfer of dyes and colors. Rinse them thoroughly after scrubbing. Detergent residue should not be left behind. Hang them out of direct sunlight on a clothesline. Make sure the room is well-ventilated before you begin.

How to Wash Ripped Jeans

Use clothing pins to wash your ripped jeans or tasseled jeans or jeans with frayed holes. They'll keep the openings from separating and causing damage if they're agitated by the machine. The edges of ripped jeans are held together by fine threads. A machine could cause harm. Hand washing your ripped jeans is the only way to keep these threads from unraveling during the wash.

Close Your Jean Zippers

Make sure the zippers on your jeans are completely closed before putting them in the washing machine. The stitching of your favorite pair of jeans can be damaged if the zipper is left open.

Make Sure Your Machine Isn't Crammed

It's important that you wash your jeans in an environment that allows them to tumble and circulate freely. The efficiency of your washing machine will be lowered if you overload it with laundry. Additionally, clothes that rub against one another in an overstuffed washer are much more likely to suffer from wear and tear. While it may seem like a time saver to wash all your clothes at once, you may end up wasting time untangling the knots and tangles that you'll have to deal with at the end of the cycle.

Separately wash light and dark colored jeans

You may think it makes sense to wash all of your denim at once, but this isn't always the best option. You must, however, examine each item in turn. During the washing process, the extra dye from your dark denims may transfer to lighter ones. This means that they must be washed and dried separately once more.
