It is a wonderful thing to create a look in the cold winter with a scarf. The clever combination of a scarf can sometimes play a finishing touch to a look. So after the beautiful look, how should different scarves be maintained? We divide the scarves into the following categories according to their materials. We will analyze different materials to determine different maintenance methods.
Wool Scarves
Features: Pure wool fabric will not wrinkle when held tightly by hand and will return to flatness quickly when loosened. Creases will fade away in a short time.
Advantages: good warmth retention, soft fur, good elasticity, strong heat insulation, plump feel, and comfortable to wear.
Maintenance method:
- Correctly understand that scarves made of wool and other materials will shed hair.
- Avoid sharp hooks from hitting objects. If a line is hooked, just pull it flat along the weaving pattern.
- If there is any partial breakage, loose needle or thread, stop wearing it immediately and repair it.
- Pay attention to the temperature when ironing a wool scarf, spray some water mist on the scarf before ironing, and also pay attention to the longitude and latitude directions when ironing.
- Pay attention to reducing greater friction. The matching outerwear should not be too rough or hard to avoid friction that damages the fiber, reduces strength, or causes pilling.
Wool scarf cleaning:
- When washing, try not to put it together with other easily faded clothes to avoid staining and destroying the beauty of the scarf.
- The scarf should not be soaked for too long, 5 to 10 minutes is OK. Use cold water to soak and squeeze it at the same time to make the adhering dust and dirt enter the water. Then put it in 35-degree water and wash it with neutral detergent. Remember not to use soap or other cleaning products with too much alkali to wash it, and do not rub too hard to avoid deformation. If there is no neutral detergent, shampoo can be a good option instead.
- After washing, put the scarf in glacial acetic acid (white vinegar) to thoroughly remove the remaining detergent and protect the fiber. Wash it again after acidification.
- Add some softener after rinsing with warm water for better results.
- After washing, squeeze out the water from the wool scarf, put it in a net bag and then dehydrate it in the washing machine.
- After dehydration, lay the scarf flat on a table with a towel according to its original size, then hang it up to dry in the shade and avoid direct sunlight.
- After drying in the shade, iron neatly at medium temperature through a towel.
Silk Scarves
Advantages: soft and smooth texture, soft and light touch, colorful patterns, cool and comfortable to wear.
Maintenance method:
- Must be dry cleaned.
- Silk fibers cannot withstand friction. 3. Do not spray deodorants, perfumes, etc. on the surface of silk products.
Polyester fiber Scarves
Polyester fiber features:
- It has high strength and elastic recovery ability.
- It has better light resistance and its ability to withstand sunlight is better than that of natural fiber plants.
- Good performance against various chemicals. Not afraid of mold or insects. advantage:
- Good wrinkle resistance, good shape retention, good strength, good color fastness, easy to clean, quick drying, and stable shrinkage.
- The fabric has a certain drape and is generally brightly colored.
Maintenance method:
No special requirements.
Cleaning method:
Except for not being able to be washed at high temperatures, it can be dry cleaned, machine washed, or hand washed with no special requirements.
Regenerated cellulose fiber Scarves
Natural cellulose is used as raw material (such as milk fiber is a natural fiber), which is spun after chemical treatment.
advantage:
It feels soft and has a good luster, good moisture absorption, good air permeability, and good dyeing performance (not easy to fade).
Maintenance method:
Try to reduce friction when using and do not wash with water.
Washing method:
Do not wash, dry clean required.
