How To: Keep Your Bra In Perfect Condition

All you need is :

• A lingerie bag ($3.89 on Amazon, $10 at VS)
• Mild Laundry Soap (I find that Purex works the best)
• Towel (Any will do really)

1. Okay first things first, when washing your bras to avoid the elastic band from stretching you need to make sure that the hooks are hooked in the back. Trust me it helps your bras life over time.
2.  Place your bras in a lingerie bag foam or mesh will do. This also slows the process of stretching in your bras.
3. ONLY USE COLD WATER. Hot water actually makes it to where the bras elasticity will expand and contrast thus causing it to stretch and become less effective.
4. It's really recommended to wash your bras by hand but there is one exception. And that is if you put your bras in the lingerie bag in the wash on the gentle cycle.
5. DO NOT USE THE DRYER TO DRY YOUR BRAS! For the same reason that you don't use hot water to wash them. Except with the dryer you can possibly shrink your new bra and be sort of sol.  Also if you have a wild color like hot pink or anything of that nature your bras color may bleed with all your other clothes. Yikes! But all you need to do is hang your bras on a rack and have your towel under them to catch the water.
6. For this method it's recommended that you have at least 3 bras at a time. One to wear, one in the wash and the other ready for the next day.
7. Just so everyone is clear you should only put 2 or 3 tablespoons of laundry soap in with your bras rather washing by hand or on the gentle cycle.

Hope this helps ladies!
