Remove any pillowcases and protective covers. For best results, wash two pillows at once to keep the washing machine balanced.
4. Set the Washing Machine
For most pillows, a gentle cycle with warm water will suffice. Use an extra rinse cycle to remove all traces of detergent from the pillows.
5. Dry Thoroughly
Ensure your pillows are completely dry to prevent mold growth. If machine drying, choose a low heat setting and consider adding a few clean tennis balls to help fluff the pillows as they spin.
6. Consider Hand Washing
If your pillows are delicate or if the care label suggests it, hand washing is a safe alternative. Use a large basin with warm water and mild detergent, gently agitate the pillow, then rinse thoroughly.
7. Whiten Naturally
For a natural whitening solution, consider soaking your pillows in a mixture of lukewarm water and baking soda before washing. This can help brighten the fabric without the harsh chemicals.
8. Perform Regular Maintenance
To keep your pillows fresh between washes, fluff them daily and expose them to sunlight occasionally. Using pillow protectors and washing them regularly will also extend the life and freshness of your pillows.
Following this guide will help you maintain pillows that are not only clean and white but also conducive to a healthy sleeping environment. Take care of your pillows, and they will take care of your sleep!
