How often should you wash your jeans, and it's more often than you think

The rough fabric of jeans can maintain an acceptable appearance for weeks. And if you prefer dark shades for every day, it is unlikely that anyone will suspect you of washing them too infrequently, informs Ukr.Media.

And yet, don't forget about your health!

To maintain the hygienic cleanliness of the fabric, experts advise washing jeans every three to six days, except in cases where the contamination is obvious: for example, you have sweated profusely, experts say.

When it comes to keeping your denim pieces looking fresh, it's the other way around!

Washing jeans after every wear can lead to rapid fading and wear.

If you want to keep your jeans looking fresh, as if they just came from the store, it is recommended to do spot cleaning when necessary and simply air your jeans when they need it.

When it comes to the golden mean, experts agree that the optimal washing frequency depends on wear patterns and preferences.

If you want to get a lighter shade, wash more often in warm water. If you want to preserve the original shade, wash less often and in cold water.
The main thing to remember is that dirt contributes to fading just as much as washing.

The compromise is this: your jeans can benefit from a visit to the washing machine at least once a week.

Washing them in cool water with a color fixative is unlikely to harm them any more than constant wear.
