They will look pretty for much longer!

Some people think you should never wash your jeans or, if you do, you should wash them by hand. It’s fine to wash them in the washing machine, though, as long as you don’t do it too often. Follow the tips below and you’ll make sure your jeans won’t get damaged in the machine.

Inside out
The trick for beautiful jeans is actually very simple. You don’t need any fancy products, or even any extra products at all. The first thing you should do is turn the pants inside out. Make sure the zipper (or buttons) are closed, so they can’t get stuck to anything. Try not to wash the jeans together with any delicate clothing.

Cold and mild
Put your washing machine on a cold setting so the pants don’t shrink and choose a mild programme. Make sure the spin speed isn’t too high, since this can create thin spots on the pants and can cause your jeans to fade. Don’t leave them in the washing machine for too long. Take them out while they’re still wet and make sure to smooth out the legs. Put them on a hanger to dry. That’s it!
