US EditionExperts share £1.20 hack that stops dark clothes fading after washing
MANCHESTER, ENGLAND, JUL 16 – Sarah Thompson’s tea rinse hack uses natural tannins to prevent fading and costs about £1.20 monthly, helping preserve dark clothes like school uniforms effectively.
- Sarah Thompson from Manchester shared a laundry tip passed down from her grandmother, which involves adding cooled brewed black tea or coffee to the final rinse in the washing machine to naturally restore the color of dark garments.
- She inherited this tip from her grandmother and applies it mainly to cotton-based dark fabrics, as synthetic materials do not absorb tannins well.
- Plumbworld experts advise caution and note that the hack tints dark clothes gently while preventing fading caused by heat, friction, and detergents.
- A pack of 80 standard black teabags is priced at approximately £1.20, making each individual treatment an inexpensive way to refresh dark fabrics’ colour without leaving marks on lighter areas.
- Experts conclude this affordable, natural hack helps preserve dark clothes longer and reduces replacement needs amid rising costs of school uniforms and basics.
