SALONWEAR CARE GUIDE:

Taking care of your nylon salonwear doesn’t have to be a hassle. With just a few simple steps, you can keep your uniforms looking sharp and feeling comfortable all day long. Whether you’re dealing with shampoo spills, hair clippings, or product residue, proper care will ensure your salonwear remains durable and fresh.

Machine Washing:

Machine washing is the most convenient way to clean your nylon salonwear, but it’s important to be gentle to preserve the fabric’s integrity. Here’s how to keep your uniforms looking their best:

• Use a gentle cycle with cold water to avoid wear and tear.
• Choose a mild detergent or a gentle, all-purpose laundry detergent that won’t compromise the fabric.
• You can use fabric softener if you like, as it helps to keep the material soft and reduces static.
• Dry on low heat to prevent any damage from high temperatures, and to help your salonwear maintain its shape.
• For added protection, pop your salonwear in a mesh laundry bag to minimize abrasion, particularly if it has delicate details like zippers or buttons.

Hand Washing:

Hand washing is a great option if you want to take extra care with your nylon salonwear. It’s gentle and ensures you avoid pilling or damaging the fabric:

• Fill a basin with cold water and add a small amount of mild detergent.
• Gently swish the water and allow the salonwear to soak. Avoid any heat exposure, as this can damage the fabric over time.
• For added softness, you can use a little fabric softener, but be careful not to overdo it.
• Mesh bags or soft towels can also help protect delicate fabrics during hand washing.

Professional Tips:

Ironing: Set your iron to low heat when pressing nylon salonwear. High temperatures can melt or damage the fabric, leaving marks or compromising the look.

Dryer Settings: If you must use a dryer, make sure it’s on low heat. This will keep your salonwear from becoming stiff and worn. Throw in a fabric softener sheet to reduce static and add a fresh scent.

Mesh Laundry Bags: If your salonwear has any delicate elements, like decorative stitching, zippers, or buttons, use a mesh laundry bag to keep them safe from wear and tear during washing.

By following these simple care guidelines, your nylon salonwear will stay in great condition and continue to look polished and professional throughout your busy salon days. Just a little bit of TLC goes a long way!
