HOW TO FIX COLORS ON FABRICS WITH NATURAL REMEDIES

We open the drum of the washing machine, pick up our garments, and here comes the nasty surprise: our colored clothes have faded.

Unfortunately, this happens because of the dyes used to color the fabrics, which are not well fixed in the fibers and, therefore, tend to disperse.

But it is possible to fix and revive the colors on fabrics with some easy, quick and inexpensive natural remedies.

White vinegar
The first remedy for fixing colors on clothes is to use the much-loved white vinegar.

This ingredient is able not only to revive white, but also to keep the color of the clothes vibrant.

Finally rinse the garment in cold water and proceed to ordinary hand washing with water and Marseille soap.
