How to Care for and Wash Silk Hair Ties

Silk hair ties last longer and protect hair better when you take care of them properly. Many people use them every day and forget that silk is more delicate than regular materials. Proper care helps maintain softness, shape and protective properties.

How often to wash silk hair ties

You do not need to wash silk hair ties after every use. Usually it is enough to wash them once every few weeks or when you notice they start collecting oils, product residue or lose their clean feel. If you use the tie every day and your hair has a lot of products, you may need to wash it more often. The most important thing is not to overwash, because too frequent washing can gradually weaken the silk fibres.

How to wash silk hair ties correctly

It is best to wash silk hair ties by hand in lukewarm water with a mild detergent made for silk or delicate fabrics. Place the ties in the water, gently move them and leave for a few minutes. Do not rub hard or wring them. Then rinse well with clean water. If you want, you can rinse with cold water, as this helps preserve the silk shine. Never use bleach or strong chemicals, as they can damage the fibres and change the colour.

How to dry and store them

After washing, gently squeeze the ties with a towel but do not wring them. It is best to dry them naturally, placed on a clean towel or hung in the shade. Avoid direct sunlight and the dryer, because high temperature can damage silk. When the ties are completely dry, store them in a dry place, preferably separately from other accessories so they do not get wrinkled or absorb odours.

What to do so the ties stay in good condition longer

For everyday use simple care is enough. Occasionally check for signs of wear and replace the ties when they lose their shape or become too loose. If you want quality silk hair ties that keep their properties well, you can find mulberry silk options for everyday use in the Savas Home range.

Properly cared for silk hair ties can last a long time and continue to gently protect your hair. The most important things are to wash gently, dry naturally and not keep them in a damp place.
