Hi everyone!! Educator here!!
I haven’t seen any posts about this (excuse me if I missed it) but I figured I’d let you guys know how to care for your items. I’ve read some reviews on products and it seems like a lot of people don’t know the following tips!
-
DO NOT put ANYTHING in the dryer!!! This will extend the longevity of your products by far. Hang-dry always for all lulu items. If absolutely necessary, you can use an air dry cycle to get the lint off but do not use heat AT ALL.
-
Wash cold with similar items. Avoid washing with rough items like jeans, towels, things like that. Harsh zippers and other fabrics can snag the material in the wash.
-
Avoid fabric softener. This thins out fabric and should be avoided at all costs!!
I hope this helps!! 😊
I put my on mesh bag for wash then air dry it.

I tumble warm dry for ~10 mins then hang dry. So far so good

I wash my lulu separately from everything. Everything inside out. Sweaters, leggings, tanks and tees all separately depending on material. I am Uber protective of my stuff. All hang dry!

This is the case for nearly all of my lulu clothing with the exception of my Scuba hoodies and sweatpants. To keep them soft, I’ll pop them into the dryer for 20 mins, delicate, no heat, and then hang them to dry.

I was told this during my first purchase years ago and I’ve always followed it; this stuff is way too expensive not to. I also use free and clear detergent as well.

Too much work… Everything goes in the washer on cold, everything goes in the dryer on low/medium heat. No issues 🤷🏻♀️

Whether you air dry or tumble dry or hang it over an open flame those scubas are gonna shrink and fade 💀💀💀

I put my lulu in the dryer all the time but on low heat. It is just warm to the touch and my dryer stops with just a tiny bit of moisture left in the clothes. Nary a problem so far. I have dried scuba half zips in the dryer that did in fact shrink the material when I forgot to dial the heat down from medium to low.

I put everything in the dryer on delicates and it’s been absolutely fine

Question, do you unzip the jackets or keep them zipped when putting it into the washer?
id:kx4cvl5
I keep them zipped but turn them inside out! That way the zippers don’t catch on anything else

For me, I like to zip, flip inside out, then put it in a laundry bag-I’ve had zippers come open during washing & snag other clothes/catch on a button hole or something.

Where you get laundry bag from

Amazon-I just bought a couple of mixed size sets.

Anything? What about sweats? Classic cotton blend sweats? Lulu use to boast on their “don’t worry it’s preshrunk so there’s no surprises”. Is that no longer the case?

Someone in my family was trying to help but stuck them in the dryer 🙃 The frustration when someones tries to good deed that essentially ruins your belongings is a tough one.

I wear my lululemons (different styles of tops, bottoms, and bras) constantly, and I don’t baby them. They are washed and dried in machines with everything else, and years later, they still look perfect.
