We are still reluctant to put away swimsuits and bikinis. Despite the rain, we still have summer days left, although the swimming pools in the urbanizations are already closed. If you are one of those who are not going to wear a swimsuit until next summer, We offer you the best tricks to wash and store your swimsuits before closet change.
Surely on many occasions you have rescued your swimsuit from one year to the next and suddenly you have found that it is not in the same condition as when you stored it: it may be more worn, lost color or with a bad shape.
- That is why it is always essential wash them before storing them. Chlorine, salt water, creams, oils, sand, sun… are some of the factors that damage the fabric, hence the importance of proper washing, as well as optimal drying.
- The best way to wash bikinis and swimsuits is by hand, but if you decide to wash them in the washing machine, it is recommended to put them separately in cloth or net bags suitable for the washing machine. It is the best way not to damage them.
- If you keep it wet, it can even cause mold. And an important detail, so that the color of the fabric does not lose intensity, it is better to lay it inside out.
- Bikinis and swimsuits that have knots, of which there are many models with this detail, should be stored with the knots undone to prevent the fabrics of the folds from deteriorating and taking bad shapes.
- White bathing suits are very delicate, and if we place them next to color designs, they can take on a different tone and spoil, so the best option is to store them separately in a plastic or cloth bag. If you can, it is even better to put each swimsuit in a separate bag so that they are not caked.
