Lycra Fabric:
Lycra sarees are made of a stretchy and elastic fabric that requires special care to maintain their texture and shape. Here are some general wash and care instructions for lycra sarees:
1. Hand wash the lycra saree with a mild detergent in cold water. Do not use hot water or bleach, as it can damage the fabric and cause it to lose its color.
2. Soak the saree in cold water for 10-15 minutes before washing to remove any stains or dirt.
3. Gently wash the saree by hand, using a soft brush or sponge if necessary. Avoid rubbing the fabric too hard or wringing it out, as this can damage the delicate fibres.
4. Rinse the saree thoroughly with cold water to remove all traces of detergent.
5. Hang the saree to dry in a shaded area, away from direct sunlight, to avoid fading or discoloration. Do not tumble dry or wring the saree, as this can damage the fabric.
6. Do not iron the lycra saree, as it may damage the elasticity of the fabric. Instead, let it air dry and reshape it while it is still damp.
7. Store the lycra saree in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. It is best to store the saree folded or rolled, rather than hanging, to avoid stretching or distorting the delicate lycra fabric.
