#### Caring for Your Handmade Hair Scrunchies

1. **General Handling**
- **Avoid Overstretching**: Handmade scrunchies can lose elasticity if overstretched. Handle with care to maintain their shape and durability.
- **Keep Dry**: Try to keep scrunchies dry and avoid using them in water (e.g., swimming pools, showers) to prevent damage to the fabric and elastic.

2. **Storing Your Scrunchies**
- **Store in a Cool, Dry Place**: Keep scrunchies away from direct sunlight and damp areas to prevent fading and mold growth.
- **Avoid Crushing**: Store scrunchies loosely to avoid crushing the fabric, which can cause permanent creases or damage.

3. **Avoid Harsh Chemicals**
- **No Bleach**: Do not use bleach or other harsh chemicals that can degrade the fabric and elastic.
- **Hair Products**: Avoid direct contact with hair sprays, gels, and other styling products, as these can cause buildup and damage the scrunchie.

#### Washing Your Handmade Hair Scrunchies

1. **Hand Washing Method (Recommended)**
- **Prepare a Soak**: Fill a basin or sink with lukewarm water and add a small amount of mild detergent or baby shampoo.
- **Soak Scrunchies**: Submerge the scrunchies in the soapy water and gently agitate with your hands. Let them soak for 10-15 minutes.
- **Gently Clean**: Rub the fabric gently to remove any dirt or oils. Pay attention to any stains, using a soft brush if necessary.
- **Rinse Thoroughly**: Rinse the scrunchies under lukewarm running water until all soap is removed.
- **Squeeze Out Water**: Gently squeeze out excess water without wringing or twisting the fabric to avoid damaging the elastic.

2. **Drying**
- **Air Dry**: Lay the scrunchies flat on a clean, dry towel. Roll the towel up and press gently to absorb extra moisture.
- **Shape and Dry**: Reshape the scrunchies if needed and lay them flat on a dry towel or hang them to air dry completely. Avoid direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent fading and shrinkage.

3. **Machine Washing (If Necessary)**
- **Use a Laundry Bag**: Place scrunchies in a mesh laundry bag to protect them during the wash cycle.
- **Select Gentle Cycle**: Use a gentle or delicate cycle with cold water and a mild detergent.
- **Avoid Harsh Settings**: Do not use bleach, fabric softeners, or harsh detergents that can damage the scrunchie fabric and elastic.
- **Air Dry**: Follow the air-drying instructions above to ensure scrunchies retain their shape and elasticity.

By following these care and washing instructions, you can keep your handmade hair scrunchies looking beautiful and lasting longer. Enjoy the comfort and style they bring to your hair!
