First, purchase the same brand and fabric content of your favorite scrubs. Otherwise, you will experience different dye lots.
Secondly, always wash like colors together. In addition, wash the top and pants of the
same set of scrubs simultaneously.
Now, pour about a half cup of white vinegar directly
onto your scrubs. Then, add your
favorite laundry detergent. The white vinegar
both sanitizes and slows down the fading process, and sets the color. Fabric softener will make your scrubs feel
wonderful, and you will want to wear them at all times.
Fourth, wash your scrubs in cold water and dry on low heat
to prevent shrinkage. If you want to
shrink your scrubs, wash them in hot water and dry on high heat. Adding a dryer sheet will eliminate static
electricity.
