As the cloth does not release its herbal properties when wet, the undies can be washed and the herbal benefits will last for months.
Wash separately at 30 degrees, using gentle cleanser such as Ecover. Do not use a synthetic fabric conditioner –  and dry in the shade, if drying outdoors. The longevity of the colours depends on the maintenance of the fabric. The properties remain active in the fabric for as long as the colour remains. Due to the nature of the hand-made process, there will be slight inconsistencies in the colour, texture and finish of the fabric. This is normal, and adds to authenticity.
