Complete Guide To Decode the Confusing Care Labels on Your Clothes

Have you ever been confused by the cryptic symbols on your clothing’s care labels? You're not alone. These tiny icons are your roadmap to keeping your clothes in excellent condition. Here's a complete guide to understanding them:

1. Washing Symbols
   • A tub with water indicates machine washing. A number within it shows the maximum temperature.
   • A hand in the tub? Hand wash only!
   • Crossed-out tubs mean no washing.
2. Bleaching Instructions
   • A triangle means bleach is safe, while a crossed-out triangle forbids it.
3. Drying Guidelines
   • A square with a circle: tumble dry allowed.
   • Dots inside the circle indicate heat settings (1 for low, 2 for medium, and 3 for high).
   • A crossed-out circle? No tumble drying.
4. Ironing Advice
   • An iron icon tells you if ironing is okay, with dots for heat levels. A crossed-out iron means skip the heat.
5. Dry Cleaning Details
   • A circle suggests professional dry cleaning, and letters inside it (like P or F) guide the cleaner on solvents.

Mastering these symbols ensures your garments last longer and look their best!
