You don't want to ruin your leggings. That's why you have to be careful when washing them. According to Self, here are a few mistakes you might be making with your leggings:
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."
