This is true🤣🤣that is what I do, so all those clothes are just decorations

Also when air drying your denim before hanging them up shake them out it helps the wrinkles fall out and makes you jean not feel crunchy.

Want real jean advice. * Wash them on cold (inside out) with Woolite for darks. * Add 1 cup of vinegar to prevent the colors from bleeding out. * Hang dry

I know my kinds of jeans. I got a ton of Levi’s. I dry low for jeans now. I got some Levi’s that still looks new even when washed and dried. Lucky and certain brands have the best jeans. I love being comfortable in jeans.

I'm so sad when everytime I like jeans and wear them all the time then that jeans are stretch on their thighs. thats always be my problem idk how to prevent it until finally I watch this video. thank you so much for the tips!🥺💕

Using cold water instead of hot water will also help preserve the color of your jeans.

Dryer here in philippines doesn't use heat. Any other tips to soften jeans after washing and air drying it?

If you air dry your jeans inside out outdoors, they will get soft and not fade! I did this a while ago and it was as if I put them in the dryer. The more wind that day the better.

People often recommend a “mild detergent.” I have no idea what that means. What exactly is a “harsh detergent” anyway?

Wilmar Alburquerque I have used the scent free Tide detergent for several years. I think it’s called “free and gentle”. Have even tried out scent free detergents of other brands like All and the Costco store brand, but there was enough of a difference in quality that I immediately returned to Tide.

tumble low/delicate/gentle feature , and Most modern dryers come with air dry feature can we use that instead of hang air drying them??

Kelly is lovely 😍🥰

don't spray chemicals on your jeans...air dry and air out

My denim "care" Write the date you buy them on the inside pocket. Wear them for year as much as you want. Hang them up to air out in the sun after every wear and you'll have no problems with smell. Now a year has passed (you know this because you check the date you wrote). Before you wash them, inspect them. Look at the crotch, pockets and legs for any tears or holes that might need to be patched. If you don't see anything, run the jeans over bright light in areas where there is alot of wear or the denim has faded the most. If the light shines through easily or there's a hole the light pokes through, you know those areas need to be fixed. If the denim is worn out or damaged, take it to a tailor to have them fixed. Do not wash them, it will only make the damage worse than it already is. Now, if your jeans are in good condition you can start washing. Turn them inside out, set the washer to cold, gentle cycle and add only in a little detergent (we're only washing one pair of jeans). Once the wash stops, get them out of there immediately. Turn them right side out and flatten any creases you see with your hands only. Hang them up on a hanger unbuttoned in your bathroom to air dry. I have jeans from the 70's that I have kept going for 50 years using this method.

Another way is to not wear Jeans all the time in your house just going out , turn inside out quick wash and wash it by hand it by hands and hang dry.but I don’t do that I don’t wash it in a a washing machine and dryer.

Why would someone wash their jeans after just two uses??

You don't need to use denim as a cover -up. Just say, "don't use water, don't use the dryer." It's just an energy tips commercial.

We hear you, LeeAnna! We also advise hanging in the bathroom while you shower. The steam will help freshen them up without weakening the product from washing in a washing machine.

I honestly don't understand how turning them inside out when washing helps with fading. They get wet whether inside out or not.

Fabric softener, softens the fabric and makes it thin out. Where do you think the lint comes from in the filter of your dryer? The fabric fibers break off from the clothes when washing and drying and get thin or worn out, putting softeners speeds up this process. So putting too much softener is actually a bad thing.

What do you do to make them smell that quickly? I can wear my jeans upwards of 20 times before needing a wash. Only time I decide to wash jeans is when I get one stained with food, mud, or grass. Its rarely because of the smell.

Wash jeans only in baking soda and white vinegar. Vinegar sets the dye. They both clean, deodorize, and kill germs. I have a pair that I’ve had over two years and still look brand new. I wear them two or three times before washing. All detergents fade fabrics.
