Proper Suit Care


With the coming meet season, it is important to properly take care of your routine swimsuit. After all, a lot of time and effort went into making and embellishing them! Here are a few do's and don'ts.


1. ALWAYS rinse your suit with plain water after you swim in it. The sooner the better. Chlorine will fade the colors and make the elastic brittle.

2. ALWAYS hang your suit to dry. NEVER, EVER, EVER leave it in a heap, wrapped up in a towel or put it in a bag while it is wet.

3. ALWAYS make sure the headpiece and suit are COMPLETELY dry before storing them.

4. If your suit has glitter on it, don't smash it against another suit, this can cause the glitter to transfer from one suit to another, especially if the glue and glitter are still damp. Hang your suits with room to breathe.

5. Make sure your name is written inside your suit.


If you disobey these rules, the Suit Police may come and repossess your beautiful swimsuit!
