Can yoga clothes be machine washed?
The quality of yoga clothes should be divided. If it is expensive yoga clothes, the logo inside should say whether it can be machine washed, soaked and so on. If it is ordinary yoga clothes, there is no such clear trademark, then it is generally cotton or cotton and lycra, and it should be washed by a washing machine.
If you are worried about deformation or something, you'd better wash it by hand. You can soak it in soap powder and rub it gently. Try not to twist hard. When you hang it, try to fold it. Don't let it hang straight to avoid deformation. It is best not to use alkaline substances such as soap, which will harm the lycra component in the fabric. Because yoga clothes generally only have sweat stains, they can be soaked and rubbed with appropriate amount of salt.
Correct cleaning method of yoga clothes
First of all, the newly bought yoga clothes must be washed off gently with water and dried before wearing. You can use clean water. It's the first time I don't use detergent such as washing powder. Clothes have fixative. Washing with water can strengthen dyeing and make the fixing agent more stable.
Secondly, pay special attention not to go directly to high-temperature yoga in unwashed yoga clothes. Sweating a lot will decompose the fixative in clothes, which will lead to the fading of clothes. Moreover, when practicing yoga, the pores are open, which makes it easy for clothes to fade and invade the skin.
Third, daily cleaning, it is best to wash your hands with cold water, and the water temperature should not exceed 30 C. After sweating heavily, please clean and dry as soon as possible or keep ventilated. If you use a washing machine, please put it in the laundry bag first and wash it upside down. Suggest a light wash.
Fourth, be sure to wash light color and dark color separately; Soak for 1-2 minutes. Never soak for a long time. It is best to use color protection or underwear washing liquid, not in hot and humid places, not drying and ironing, not adding bleach, expansion agent, or laundry detergent or softener containing bleaching ingredients; Please put it flat to dry as soon as possible after cleaning.

What kind of yoga clothes are good?
Yoga has a lot of big body stretching movements, and it is not just a few angles. Therefore, if you wear loose and comfortable clothes made of cotton and linen, it is very breathable and comfortable, but sometimes you will feel tied because of the inflexibility of the fabric. The style should be concise, generous and neat. Don't have too many ornaments (especially metal), belts or knots on clothes to prevent chromium from contacting the body and causing unnecessary harm.
Style should be based on the free extension of limbs and the feeling of no restraint all over the body. Style jacket cuffs should not be tied tightly, but should be naturally open; It is recommended to use elastic cuffs or tying ropes at the trouser legs, because there are some supine and backward movements in yoga, and tight cuffs can prevent pants from slipping.
Try to choose fresh and elegant colors, with solid colors as the best, so as to relax your visual nerves and calm yourself down quickly. Don't let the color jump too much and stand out too much. Try not to wear exciting colors when practicing yoga.
