Hat

1. Washing: Hand wash only in cold water with a gentle, mild detergent. Do not machine wash — agitation can distort the shape and damage delicate fabrics like linen.

2. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly with cold water until all detergent is removed. Avoid hot water at all stages as it can cause shrinkage and colour fading.

3. Drying: Do not wring or twist. Gently press out excess water with a clean towel, then reshape by hand and lay flat or hang to air dry in a well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight while drying to prevent colour fading.

4. Shaping: Reshape your headwrap or hat while still damp to maintain its structure. For hats, stuff lightly with tissue paper to help hold the crown shape as it dries.

5. Ironing: If needed, iron on a low to medium heat setting while the piece is slightly damp. For linen headwraps, use a pressing cloth to protect the fabric surface. Avoid ironing any embellishments or printed areas directly.

6. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from humidity and direct sunlight. Fold headwraps loosely to avoid permanent crease lines. Store hats upright or on a hat stand to preserve their shape.

7. Colour Care: Wash separately for the first few washes to prevent colour transfer, especially for darker or richly dyed pieces. Cold water washing helps maintain colour vibrancy over time.

8. Linen Care: Linen naturally softens and becomes more comfortable with each wash. Some light wrinkling is characteristic of the fabric — a light iron or steam will restore a crisp finish when desired.
