How to Care for Your Mulberry Silk Scrunchies: Easy Tips for Lasting Luxury

Mulberry silk scrunchies are the perfect blend of luxury and practicality—they keep your hair looking great without the damage that comes with regular hair ties. But to keep them looking as good as new, you’ll need to show them a little love. Don’t worry, taking care of your Luxie Silk scrunchies is easy! Here’s a quick guide to keep them soft, smooth, and long-lasting.

Why Bother with Care?

Mulberry silk is special. It’s super soft, strong, and naturally shiny, which makes it perfect for your hair. Unlike other materials, silk is gentle on your locks, reducing breakage, frizz, and those annoying creases you get from tight hair ties. A little bit of TLC can make sure your scrunchies stay in top shape for a long time.

1. Hand Wash, Don’t Machine Wash

Silk likes a gentle touch, so it’s best to hand wash your scrunchies:

  • Use Cold Water: Fill a bowl with cold or lukewarm water. Hot water can be too harsh on silk.
  • Add a Gentle Detergent: Use one made for delicate fabrics—regular detergent might be too rough and strip away the silk’s natural goodness.
  • Soak & Swish: Let your scrunchie soak for 3-5 minutes, then gently swish it around. No need to scrub!
  • Rinse Well: Rinse under cold water until there’s no detergent left.

2. Drying Made Easy

Drying your scrunchies the right way is just as important:

  • Press Out Water: Gently press the scrunchie between a towel to remove excess water. Don’t wring or twist—silk doesn’t like that!
  • Air Dry Flat: Lay your scrunchie flat on a dry towel or hang it somewhere out of direct sunlight. The sun can fade colors and weaken the silk over time.

3. Say No to Heat and Harsh Chemicals

Silk is pretty low-maintenance, but there are a few things to avoid:

  • Skip the Dryer: Heat from a dryer can shrink and damage your scrunchies, so always air dry.
  • Avoid Bleach & Softeners: These products can mess with the silk’s natural shine and softness.
  • Watch Out for Perfumes and Sprays: Products like perfume or hair spray can stain the silk, so put them on before you put on your scrunchie.

4. Storing Your Scrunchies

Keeping your silk scrunchies in great shape means storing them the right way:

  • Cool and Dry is Key: Store your scrunchies in a drawer or storage box, away from humidity and sunlight.
  • Avoid Sharp Edges: Don’t store them near anything that could snag the silk.

5. Give Them a Refresh

If your scrunchie is looking a bit flat or wrinkled, here’s how to perk it up:

  • Steam It: Use a handheld steamer or hang it in a steamy bathroom to smooth out wrinkles. Just don’t hold the steamer too close!
  • Fluff It Up: After steaming, give your scrunchie a little fluff with your fingers to bring back its shape.

A Little Care Goes a Long Way

Taking care of your Luxie Silk mulberry silk scrunchies doesn’t have to be a chore. With these simple tips, you can keep them looking and feeling amazing for a long time. Show your scrunchies a bit of love, and they’ll keep your hair looking fabulous every day! Happy styling!
