The clothes of the current season are all bright colors, but after washing several times, I found that the colors are not bright enough, which is really frustrating.Don't worry, now I will tell you a few tips to prevent fading in laundry.

1. Vinegar washing method

This trick is mainly aimed at pure cotton clothes and knitwear in bright colors such as red or purple.The method is to add some ordinary vinegar to the washing water before washing such clothes, and soak for a while.But the amount of vinegar should not be too much, otherwise it is easy to stain light-colored clothes.Washing clothes in this way can ensure that the color of clothes is as clean as new.

2. Toilet water cleaning method

After the clothes are rinsed, add a few drops of toilet water to the clean water, and then soak the washed clothes in such water for 10 minutes.This method can not only prevent fading, but also play a role in disinfection and deodorization.

If you insist on using this method several times, the clothes will not fade again.

4. Anti-drying method

This method is the most commonly used, especially for some dark clothes.The method is very simple, that is, turn the clothes upside down to dry.Here is a special reminder: clothes made of most fabrics cannot be directly exposed to the sun, because ultraviolet rays are the chief culprit of fading clothes.Therefore, not only should it be turned over to dry, but if possible, try to dry the clothes in a ventilated and dark place.
