Washing Dark Jeans

Someone was recently talking about how hard it is to keep washable dark clothing from fading. I agreed because I wanted to be able to wash dark jeans without fading them. I also hated the way air dried jeans felt on my skin.

Just this week, I discovered a product for washing my darks and a techique for softing air dried jeans. I read about Caldrea French Lavender Dark Wash. It was suggested that you wash the jeans in the dark wash using the delicate cycle. Then hang them to dry. The technique I referred to works really well. After jeans are completely dry throw them in the dryer with a damp towel. Run the dryer for 5 minutes and remove jeans. The jeans are soft. Try it.
