1. You’re Using Warm Water
The fabric that your leggings are made out of is sensitive. That means it can be damaged if you use warm water to clean them. Stick to using cool water.
2. You're Using the Dryer
It's best to let your leggings air dry. If you need to use the dryer, try using "tumble dry on low."
3. You’re Using Regular Bleach
Oxygenated bleach is safe for your leggings. However, you don't want to use regular bleach on them. It could destroy the leggings you've grown to love.
4. You’re Not Using Fabric Softener
Don't you hate the fuzz buildup on your leggings? If you do, then fabric softener will make your life a whole lot easier, because it'll reduce the chances of that fuzz sticking.
