how to hand wash clothes

To hand wash clothes, start by checking the care label to select the appropriate water temperature and detergent. Fill a sink or basin with lukewarm or cold water (depending on the garment's instructions) and dissolve a mild detergent in it. Submerge the clothes, gently agitate by pressing and swishing them in the water, and let them soak for about 15 to 30 minutes for thorough cleaning. After soaking, rinse the clothes in cool water until the detergent is washed out. Avoid wringing delicate fabrics; instead, gently squeeze out excess water and lay items flat on a towel to absorb moisture before air drying flat or hanging them as suitable for the fabric type.
