If you can’t or don’t want to drop your garments<\/a> off at a dry cleaner, just keep in mind that faux fur needs to be handled similarly to wool.\u00a0<\/p>

The best way to wash it is by hand with slightly warm soapy water.\u00a0<\/p>

Contrary to popular belief, fabric softener should never be used on faux fur.\u00a0<\/p>

These products can leave stains and their chemical composition can permanently damage the coat.<\/p>

If you don’t have a large enough sink, your walk-in shower or bathtub may be just the thing.\u00a0<\/p>

You just have to fill it and put mild soap or detergent on it and wait 10 minutes for it to settle.\u00a0<\/p>

After that, simply bathe the coat repeatedly with clean, warm water until the water is clear.\u00a0<\/p>

You must repeat the process of bathing the fur as many times as necessary.\u00a0<\/p>

For slightly clean skin, maybe 1 or 2 washes will be enough.\u00a0<\/p>

On the other hand, for very dirty fabrics, you must repeat the procedure 3 or 4 times, or as many times as necessary until all the dirt is removed.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Under no circumstances are you going to wash your faux fur garments<\/a> in the washing machine.\u00a0<\/p>

This type of machine is very aggressive for your fur. It may leave fur clean, but it will not be good for its texture and softness.\u00a0<\/p>

In case you have no other option and you must use a washing machine, there are some recommendations that you should follow.\u00a0<\/p>

These tips will allow you to minimize the risk of damage to your fur:<\/p>
