Loving Your Ice Dyed Clothes - Care Tips from Ohio Drip
We hope you're loving your colorful ice dyed clothes as much as we loved creating them. Our aim is always to make your life colorful with our vibrant creations, and today we'd like to help ensure that the love affair with your Ohio Drip apparel lasts for years to come.
Ice Dyeing: Not Just a Pretty Face
When you choose an ice dyed item, you're not just choosing a visually stunning piece of clothing. You're choosing a garment that has been dyed using the most colorfast method available.
In the process of ice dyeing, the dye doesn't merely sit on the fabric's surface; it becomes part of the fabric. This means the vibrant hues are here to stay, washing after washing.
Does that mean you might never see any color in your wash water? Not necessarily. The first wash may contain loose particles that didn’t adhere during the dyeing process. But fear not, your garment isn't losing its charm; it's just shaking off some excess sparkle! Any color that does come out in the wash is just color that didn't bond, and no color should run once all the straggler pigments are gone.
Before the First Wear
Now, here's a tip. We recommend giving darker items a solo wash before wearing them for the first time, just like you would a new pair of blue jeans. You can rest assured, though, that everything you receive from Ohio Drip will have already been pre-washed. That means the size you see is the size you get—no unexpected surprises!
Sensitive Skin? No Problem!
Our dyeing method is friendly even for babies and those with sensitive skin. However, we understand that everyone's skin is unique, and some people may have specific considerations. If you do have sensitive skin, we recommend washing your clothing in your own detergent first.
Special Care for Special Extras
Got an Ohio Drip piece that's got a little extra bling? Lucky you! But remember, these beauties need a bit of special attention. When it comes to decorations or screen printing, don't iron directly on them. And if your clothing contains vinyl or other embellishments, we'd recommend treating them to a delicate wash cycle and allowing them to dry naturally by hanging them up.
Your Ohio Drip Wardrobe: Built to Last
We're committed to delivering quality, and that includes the durability of our clothing. We want your Ohio Drip pieces to stay vibrant, comfortable, and ready for all of life's colorful adventures.
Taking care of your ice dyed clothes is easy, isn't it? A little love goes a long way, ensuring that each piece remains as lively and unique as the day you first fell in love with it.
As always, we're here if you have any questions. Just remember, when it comes to your Ohio Drip clothing, the joy isn't just in the wearing—it's in the caring too!
Happy Dyeing, Happy Wearing, Happy Caring!
