Three Reasons to Dry Clean

  • Sweat Will Set In If You Don’t Dry Clean

It’s normal, people tend to sweat a lot more frequently in the summertime. Did you know that your body keeps you cool in the summer by sweating? Summery fabrics such as cotton for example, absorb most sweat keeping you cool and fresh. But sweat that stays on your clothes can cause damage. It’s usually not the sweat itself that causes damage, but bacteria. Certain types of bacteria causes bad odors and discoloration. Also, some of the chemicals used in deodorant, such as aluminum, can react with the compounds in sweat, which results in those yellow-colored stains on your summer fabrics

When you get your summer apparel professionally dry cleaned, the dry cleaning process doesn’t let the sweat set onto the clothes, preventing discoloration of clothes. It also eliminated sweat odors of clothes, leaving a fresh and fragrant smell.

  • No Shrinkage 

By dry cleaning your summer garments, you will avoid shrinkage. Imagine putting on your favorite pink colored romper that you love so much, only to realize that it is a lot tighter compared to the last time you wore it.  Well, the reason is due to your at-home washing machines.  We recommend dry cleaning to avoid shrinkage of your most favorite summer garments. During the manufacturing process, the yarn in the fabric stretches to make the final outfit. When washed with water, the fabric gets wet, and after it dries, it will shrink. Dryers can cause further fabric deterioration. Rompers and jumpsuits also are garments which have elastic waistbands, which can weaken in high levels of heat. Dry cleaning doesn’t use water, saving clothes from shrinkage and turning a size smaller.

  • Protect Delicate Materials 

Even if you think you can wash them at home, certain materials are best left to the professionals. These materials consists of silk, chiffon, lace and other delicate fabrics. These summer apparels usually consists of dresses or wedding-related garments which are usually worn in the summertime. Though you can hand-wash your clothes, only a dry cleaner will know how to remove stains and keep colors bright and crisp without damaging the garment.

Summer is the perfect time for breezy dresses, colorful rompers and floral designed jumpsuits. To give these garments a long life, you can rely on Red Hanger to ensure your summer favorites taken care of in the best way possible by using the best products and latest technology.
