Underwear is the closest place to our body, so when cleaning up your underwear, you must keep it clean and clean thoroughly. Incorrect wearing and cleaning methods can lead to breast diseases or various skin diseases in women. There are also many precautions for cleaning underwear. Let’s take a look with the editor. Although
Underwear is not a clothing worn on the outside, even the clothes worn on the inside are very rich in order to satisfy the overall good-looking variety. Therefore, every time I buy clothes, I always buy a few good-looking underwear to match. However, although it is very early when buying good-looking underwear, it is very troublesome to clean it. Many people will fall into the misunderstanding of cleaning underwear.
Misconception 1: Washing underwear directly in the washing machine is different from outerwear. Many people will take it for granted to mix the underwear and the outerwear together and put it in the washing machine to clean. Although this is very convenient, it is not very clean, because in many cases there will be a lot of bacteria left in the washing machine. Underwear is the clothes we wear close to, and should be washed separately. And the powerful force will also deform the underwear.
Misconception 2: Using ordinary laundry products to wash underwear
Underwear is actually different from the clothes you usually wear. Generally, laundry products are designed for outerwear. Therefore, the effect is not good when cleaning underwear and does not have a good sterilization effect, which is not very beneficial to health. When washing underwear, you must choose special laundry products, such as special underwear soap, etc.
Misconception 3: Frequent cleaning of underwear
Many people think that underwear should be cleaned frequently so that it will always be very clean. However, excessive cleaning of underwear will quickly lose its elasticity. If the underwear does not have elasticity, it cannot provide enough protection and support to the chest, which is not conducive to maintaining the breast shape and will cause a series of problems. Therefore, underwear should not be cleaned frequently, and it is generally no problem to wear it 3 times.
What issues should be paid attention to when cleaning up your underwear?
1. Check carefully
Every time you clean your underwear, you must check carefully. If there is any disconnection in some places, you must sew it in time. After the sewing is done, make sure that the back is hooked and the shoulder straps are tied tightly to avoid touching the fabric during the washing process. The washing time should not be too long, and it should be controlled within about three minutes, because long-term washing will cause the underwear to dye or discolor.
2. Clean the underwear frequently and get dirty, so clean it as soon as possible. The longer it is left, the more bacteria it contains, it will slowly penetrate into the fibrous tissue and become more and more difficult to clean. The positions of the rings and zippers should be cleaned by hand as much as possible. Pay attention to strength when washing with your hands. If the force is too strong, it can easily lead to deformation. It is best to clean it by pressing or rubbing.
3. Do not dip the laundry detergent on the clothes
When washing powder and fluorescent bleaching are used together, the color of the underwear will become very uneven and will easily discolor or fade. The detergent must be dissolved in water before putting the underwear in. Bleach can deteriorate or moldy underwear. So don't use it, silk underwear is soft and shiny, but is prone to wrinkles and shrinkage, and you should choose neutral washing. Try to wash with your hands and then absorb moisture with a towel.
4. Check the zipper when cleaning the underwear zipper
If it is a full-length clothing with a zipper, you must pull the zipper part when cleaning the clothes, and clean the movable shoulder straps separately from the underwear. When cleaning with a washing machine, the light-colored underwear and white underwear must be separated. When washing with your hands, wash light-colored underwear first, then dark-colored underwear. First, you should wash your underwear that is not too dirty and then deal with the dirtier ones.
5. When washing clothes with washing machines, at least two washing machines should be used separately to separate the metal-rich or elastic soft rings to avoid damaging your clothes. If the elastic ring deforms, you must carefully rub it back to its original shape with your hands and must not be forced to change it back to its original shape. Most lingerie is made of soft and delicate materials. When washing clothes, you must place them in the laundry net according to the label inside.
