Sarees are delicate and require special care to maintain their beauty and longevity. Here are some tips for washing and caring for your sarees:

Dry Wash	Dry cleaning is important for sarees with delicate fabric & heavy embellishments like beads, sequins, or embroidery. It will also help prevent shrinkage and keep the saree in its original size and shape.
Hand wash or machine wash:	If your saree can be washed at home, hand washing is the gentlest option. If you prefer to use a washing machine, make sure to use the delicate cycle and a laundry bag to protect the saree from snagging or getting tangled.
Use gentle detergents:	Use a gentle detergent specifically formulated for delicate fabrics when washing your saree. Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals as they can damage the fabric and the embroidery or prints.
Avoid wringing	After washing, gently squeeze out any excess water instead of wringing the saree. This will help preserve the fabric and prevent any damage to the embroidery or prints.
Hang dry	Avoid using a dryer to dry your saree. Instead, hang it out to air dry in the shade. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight as this can cause fading.
Store carefully	When not in use, store your sarees in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Fold them neatly and avoid stacking heavy items on top of them to prevent crushing

By following these tips, you can ensure that your sarees are properly cared for and will remain beautiful for years to come.
