2. The fabrics are protected from possible discoloration
Once inside the drum, anything can happen to fabrics! The most delicate ones are easily damaged and brightly coloured fabrics lose their intensity. To avoid the worst, it is best to put your clothes back in the washing machine before each wash. Do this especially with jeans ! They lose not only their original blue colour but also the quality of their material and their elasticity. The same goes for other garments made of fragile fibres such as blouses, t-shirts or trousers. It’s not that complicated, right? If you adopt this reflex, you won’t necessarily have to renew your wardrobe next season!
3. Embroidery, prints… and all the details are protected!
If you care about a specific garment, the most logical thing is to turn it inside out before putting it in the washing machine. Because ? The rubbing of the different fabrics inside the drum is often responsible for its deterioration. Small details, embossing, edges, seams and sequins stick to the machine drum and damage fabrics. Also, if you have drawings on your jeans or T-shirt, it’s best to wash them inside out so they don’t fade.
Another little bonus: by turning your clothes inside out, you’ll also be able to empty your pockets and put away some important items. Your machine will thank you too!
