How To Wash A Silk Scarf

Silk scarves are very versatile in autumn, and they are not too hot. They can add some highlights to your outfits. However, because of the special material of silk, let’s learn how to clean silk scarves.

First, put the silk scarf in cold water for 5-10 minutes, rub it gently with a special silk detergent, and rinse it with clean water a few times. After washing, do not twist it with force to avoid wrinkles. Avoid using alkaline detergent, soap, washing powder, and disinfectant for silk scarves.

Secondly, if it is sweaty silk, it should be washed immediately or soaked in clean water. Do not use hot water above 30 degrees.

Third, silk scarves will fade more or less when they are washed. In order to keep the silk color as bright as new and soft, a little white vinegar can be added during rinsing.

Fourth, after cleaning, it is dried. When airing, shake the scarf gently, and dry it in a cool, well-ventilated place.
