Leotard Care:
I don’t know how you feel, but when I spend my hard earned money on my daughter’s leos I want to know that those leos are going to last. So I try very hard to follow the washing instructions on tags. Some say to not use Woolite, and I have found that “Dreft” baby clothing detergent works best - either powder or liquid. Certain water types will leave residue with powder, so I would recommend liquid detergent. Use a large amount of cold water unless the instruction say warm is okay (NEVER HOT), and always use the gentle setting.
I recommend washing leos in their own load, not with regular clothing. Regular clothing could snag or bleed on the leos and leave lint that you don’t want. For leos with special finishes (sparkles, glitter, foil, rhinestones, or other embellishments) turn your leo inside out to wash it.
Most leos say whether to “hang to dry” or “tumble dry” on low heat, follow these instructions because “hanging to dry” when it should be “tumbled dry” will not produce the results your after.
