Learn How To Make Your Bras Last
Finding a comfortable bra can take a lot of time. Purchasing it can take a lot of money. If you are going to go through all the hassle, it would seem to make sense that you should try to make them last. It all comes down to care.
First things first. You should never wear your bra two days in a row. Why? The elastic portion of any bra needs at least one day to rest. So, if you wear it often the elastic will eventually give out causing the bra to lose shape. Speaking of shape, have you ever had an underwire poke through the fabric?
If women have one common complaint regarding bras, it has to do with getting poked by underwire bras. If you are washing your bra in hot water, you are asking for it. Hot water shrinks the material around the underwire causing it to poke through.
Our bras take a beating. One area where we do serious damage is in drying them. Bras should not be dried in a dryer. The excessive heat will warp the bra and change the shape. Air dry them for longer lifer.
Who has time to hand wash anything? Well, you and me. Just designate a bit of time on Sunday and do it. Hand wash your bras in cool, soapy water then rinse and hang up to air dry. It should take no more than 20 minutes.
Ah, who really needs to do this? I can just buy more bras. Well, you really do not want to take this tack once you find a comfortable bra. Why? Well, brands change bras all the time. In other words, you need to make them last.
Do not throw your money down the drain just to save a few moments. Wash your bras by hand and hang them to dry. It is the only way that you will get the most from your lingerie. Sure, tossing everything into the washing machine is easier, but it is also the best way to ruin your bras in a flash.
