Question

Is it best to machine wash or handwash bras?

Answer 1

if you don't have time to handwash them, put them in a mesh bag and if you cant' find one. just close the snaps,( or whatever their called)on the back of the bra ( as if you were wearing it). it prevents from getting tangled together or on the machine

Answer 2

I handwash all my undies! The machine wrecks nice stuff1

Answer 3

better to handwash inorder to see the kind of dirt you produce from your b***s,,,,,

Answer 4

Depends how lacy they are! If really delicate then hand wash only. You can buy bags to put your lingerie in the washing machine that will help protect them.

Answer 5

It is better to hand wash, but who has the time.  Put them in a pillow case and tie a rubber band around the end so they don't  fall out and throw it in the washer.

Answer 6

I have 3 mesh bags from Walmart or any other store.  Put your bras in hooked together, max 3 per bag.  Toss in the wash, but NEVER in the dryer!  Hang to dry for about 2 hrs. or more.  I have an unusual size & need to take special care since they never go on sale, and my bras last about 3 years.  If they start to look a little faded or blah, throw in something red, like a washcloth or tee shirt to get an interesting new color.  I also use the bags for my nylon or fancy  undies, stockings, or anything small or not needing to go in the dryer, like kitchen or bath sponges or body scrubbers.  They are so much easier to find.

Answer 7

better to hand wash but i don't have the time so mine go in the machine anyway....

Answer 8

i use the washing machine but put the bras in a pillowcase or something cause if the bras have wire in them they can catch on the machine drum

Answer 9

They retain their shape and last longer if you only wear them one day at a time and handwash them - besides, it doesn't take long to do, and bras are expensive so I think it is worth it.
