​Here is 3 tips on how to take care of and treat silk recommended by Lơ Silk:

​

1. It can be washed after wearing 3-4 times. 

If you wear silk in an air-conditioned environment or during cool weather without significant stains, you can wear it a few more times before needing to wash it. The inherent protein fibers have good natural antibacterial properties, so they also do not retain unpleasant odors.

 

2. Flip it inside out to avoid any scratchy situations.

When you're packing or moving stuff around, remember to turn the lining surface outwards to protect the main silk surface from scratches. Alternatively, silk garments should be rolled and neatly placed in a separate bag within your suitcase.

 

3. Cold water washing for convenience and conservation.

Dry cleaning is the optimal method for silk garments. However, you can gently wash them with cold water for convenience and to save costs. The use of detergents is not recommended as they can diminish the shine of the silk.
