Tips for Your Sari to Look Brand New
You and only you know just how gorgeous you are and how much pains you went through to select that beautiful designer sari and only you will truly understand how horrible it is to have a stain on that perfect sari.
So here are a few sari care tips to ensure that even your 7 year old sari looks brand new and there is absolutely no sign of stains.
Saris are available in a variety or prints, colors, work and just as many fabrics. Every fabric has to be tended to differently and taken care of in a different manner.
1. Cotton Saris:
Let's start with the basics. You will notice that whenever you purchase a cotton sari, it is stiff. That is because the sari has plenty of starch - something that is essential during the weaving or coloring procedure. It is quite simple to get the starch out. All you have to do is dip the sari in a bucket of warm salt water and let it soak for a while. Ensure that you soak saris individually since they may bleed in their first wash. Never wring a wet cotton sari. It loosens the fabric. Instead, gently squeeze out the excess water and hang it up to dry in direct sunlight.
2. Chiffon and Georgette Saris:
Chiffon and Georgette are both flowing delicate materials that look awesome when adorned. It may be the unique delicateness that adds flavor to your look but it is exactly that feature of the fabrics that make it so tough to care for. It is relatively easier to wash them. They can be both hand washed - a preferable option if the sari is filled with work - or machine washed in the delicate mode. However, the real issue begins with the ironing and adorning. You have to be very careful while ironing these saris because a slight increase in heat will cause holes. Similarly, it is advisable not to use safety pins in these saris since they may tear.
