Keep Your Jeans from Fading with Easy Tip from Real Simple

POSTED BY
Linda

jeansDon’t you just hate when your dark or vibrant jeans start to fade in the wash? Try this smart DIY tip from Real Simple: Just add salt! While it’s wise to follow the care instructions for all fabrics, Catherine Ryu, creative director of jean outfitter Citizens of Humanity, recommends, “If you want to go a step further with dark indigo, black, and colored jeans, add two tablespoons of salt to your cold water wash, making sure jeans are inside out.”  We assume you need to rinse well. Check out the site for lots of other money-saving ideas, too.
