Silk products that are often used need to be washed and hung frequently, and must be placed in a backlit and ventilated place. Silk is very afraid of sun exposure, because it is protein like skin and can absorb ultraviolet light, so it is also called the "second skin". In fact, silk sun protection means sacrificing silk to protect the skin. Another is not to hang it for a long time. When drying, it can be put into the clothes drying net and hung in a ventilated place.


The silk products that are not commonly used do not need to be washed and dried frequently, so they should be kept in the wardrobe and boxes. Do not put volatile inorganic liquids such as nail polish, perfume and balm in the place where these silk products are placed, nor do not put camphor pills, camphor sticks, sachets and other items that have chronic damage to silk.


From the perspective of morphology and volume. Small silk articles such as silk goggles, silk scarves, silk masks, etc. can be stored at the bottom of the cabinet without fear of being crushed or deformed. However, neckties and bows are recommended to be placed in separate grids to avoid deformation.


Large silk articles, such as silk four piece sets and silk overcoats, should not be hung for storage. Because the product has a heavy weight, it is easy to deform if it is hung for a long time. Also, do not stack many things on it after folding. It is not worth the loss if you press the dead crepe print.


Finally, from the perspective of washing method, the most commonly used washing method is water washing. Of course, we must choose the special detergent for silk, not the detergent for cotton, polyester, recycled cotton and other clothes, not to mention the detergent powder or soap flakes. We think that most of these are alkaline detergent, which will wash silk bad.


Silk products such as silk ties, silk dresses, silk gloves, etc. are usually used less, and do not need to be cleaned frequently. In addition, water washing may also deform the products, so the best way to wash is dry cleaning, which will not damage the fabric, and do not worry about the problem of washing deformation, and because it is small items, the cost of dry cleaning will not be too high.


There is another kind of silk products that do not need to be washed, or cannot be washed, such as silk quilts, silk curtains, etc. This kind of products should not be washed. The silk quilt core cannot be washed, but it can also be cleaned. Many people know that the silk cannot be dried in the sun, so they also think that the silk quilt core cannot be dried, which is actually OK. But in order not to damage the silk in the quilt core, it is recommended to put on the quilt cover and dry it again, And it's about twice a month.
