Hand Block Bagru Printed Linen Cotton Saree- Green Colour

For washing the linen saree, first soak it separately in cold water for 5-10 minutes with rock salt to avoid excess colour bleeding during and after wash.

Expect slight colour bleeding during the initial 2-3 washes. This is normal. Do not worry, this won’t fade the saree colour. Colour bleeding happens because it loses extra colour that is picked up during the dyeing process.

Add a mild detergent or preferably a shampoo to the cold water. Since the linen saree is soft & light weight, do not use any harsh detergents.

Hand wash the saree gently. Only apply pressure on visible areas of dirt & stains. For all other areas, apply gentle pressure.

Once you have washed your linen saree, do not wring it too tight. The soft fabric needs to be handled with care.

Linen sarees need to be dried in shade and not in the bright sun. This will ensure that your saree colour does not fade soon.

You could even flat dry the saree in shade so that there is no need of using an iron.

You could always give the saree for dry cleaning and let the experts handle it.
