🛏️ The Ultimate Guide to Caring for Your Bed Sheets: Expert Tips from Coco Laundry

guide to care for your bed sheets

Your bed is where you recharge and unwind—so your sheets deserve the same level of care you give your favorite clothes. Clean, fresh, and crisp sheets can transform your sleeping space into a luxurious retreat. At Coco Laundry, we know a thing or two about pampering bed linens. Whether you're caring for your sheets at home or leaving it to the pros (hi there! 👋), here’s how to make your bed feel five-star.

🧼 1. Wash Weekly, But Wash Thoughtfully

Aim to wash your sheets every week to remove buildup from sweat, oils, and skin cells. Use warm water for standard cotton sheets to get a deep clean, and choose cold water for delicate fabrics to prevent shrinking or fading. Skip heavy loads—give your sheets room to breathe so they can come out truly clean. And avoid tossing them in with towels or heavy garments, which can cause extra friction and wear.

✨ 2. Brighten Whites with OxiClean™

Want to keep white sheets looking brand-new? Add a scoop of OxiClean™ to your laundry. It helps lift tough stains and brightens whites without the harshness of bleach. It's especially helpful for tackling those mystery pillow stains or yellowing that builds up over time.

🧽 3. Treat Stains Right Away

Stains happen. The trick is catching them early. If you notice something on your sheet—blood, makeup, food—treat it immediately. Blot (don’t rub!) the area with water, then apply a stain remover or a bit of detergent. Let it sit, then wash as usual. For extra stubborn spots, a soak in a solution with OxiClean™ before washing can do wonders.

🧺 4. Say No to Fabric Softener

Fabric softener might make clothes feel nice, but it can coat your sheets with residue that reduces breathability. A better trick? Add a half cup of white vinegar to your rinse cycle. It naturally softens the fabric and helps remove leftover detergent.

🔄 5. Rotate Your Sheets

Having more than one set of sheets is not just a luxury—it’s a smart way to make them last longer. Rotating between sets gives each one a break, reducing wear and allowing you to keep your bed fresh without stressing on laundry day.

🧖‍♀️ 6. Iron for the Luxury Hotel Feel

Ironing your sheets might sound extra, but trust us—it makes a difference. Crisp, ironed sheets instantly give your bed a clean, upscale vibe. Iron while slightly damp for the smoothest finish. If you’ve never tried it, you’re in for a treat.
