    1. Wash with Care
    Always check the labels on your clothes before washing. Use cold water for most fabrics to prevent fading and shrinking. Avoid using too much detergent, as it can build up and make clothes look dull. Washing similar colors together also helps keep them fresh and bright.

    2. Dry Gently
    High heat from the dryer can damage fabric and cause clothes to wear out quickly. Whenever possible, air dry your clothes or use a low heat setting. Hanging delicate items instead of wringing them out helps keep their shape. If using a dryer, remove clothes while they are still slightly damp to reduce wrinkles.

    3. Store Clothes Properly

    Fold heavy items like sweaters instead of hanging them to avoid stretching. Use good-quality hangers for delicate fabrics to keep their shape. Keep your wardrobe organized and avoid stuffing clothes too tightly in drawers or closets, as this can cause wrinkles and damage.

    4. Treat Stains Immediately
    Spills and stains can set in if not treated quickly. Blot stains with a clean cloth and use a stain remover suitable for the fabric type. Always test on a hidden area first. Washing stained clothes as soon as possible will help keep them looking new for longer.
