Kigurumi are practical and comfortable pajama onesies, presented in the form of animals or cartoon characters. There are no age criteria for wearing them; anyone can purchase a home kit. Comfortable clothing is loved by many; the demand for it is quite high. Is it practical? How to care for her?
Ways to wash onesies
The only problem is the cut of the outfit itself. It is solid, if any part gets dirty, you have to wash it completely. When the area of contamination is small, you can remove the stain by rubbing it with a sponge soaked in a soap solution.
Onesies are made from two main types of fabrics: fleece and velsoft.
In order for suits to maintain color fastness and functionality, they require regular care.
Manual method
Hand washing has always been valued for its gentle treatment of any type of clothing.
Fleece onesies should be washed at a temperature no higher than 40 C, as this is a rather capricious material that is preferably washed carefully.
It is recommended to soak Velsoft in water at a lower temperature, up to 30 C. Otherwise, it will begin to become covered with “pellets”.
So, cool the water to room temperature. Next, add powder marked “for hand washing” into the basin. And dissolve it well, then soak the product for 15-20 minutes. Start the washing process itself.
IMPORTANT! Gentle washing and spinning process. There is no need to aggressively rub and wring out your pajamas.
How to machine wash
If you don’t have enough time, you can use the second option, organize washing in an automatic washing machine.
We wash both types of suits, fleece and velsoft, identically.
Stages:
- Before loading into the drum, the overalls should be fastened with the existing zippers and turned inside out.
- Then turn on the washing mode.
ATTENTION! The mode is only “delicate”, the temperature is not higher than 30 C.
Use powder for automatic washing machines. Additionally, you can add a small amount of softening fabric conditioner.
IMPORTANT! Concentrated bleaches should not be added.
At the end of washing, spin the laundry at low speed.
It is not recommended to iron such clothes, but if there are strong folds, iron once, set at a low temperature.
Features of fabrics and cuts of kigurumi, what to take into account
Any of the methods has some nuances that are important to know in order to effectively clean and not damage the product.
- When using the manual method, fleece products should be given due attention. You cannot twist the item too much; you must let the water drain, then place the onesie on a horizontal surface to dry;
- In case of deep contamination, it is better to first soak the kit in a basin for a couple of hours;
- The velsoft set can be dried on hangers.It is important to let the product dry flat. When semi-dry, shake several times to smooth out the wrinkles and hang back to dry.
