I wash the in the delicate cycle in the washer and then air dry.

I'm wondering if they would last longer if I hand washed them in Woolite.

Wondered what the rest of you do.

I wash mine in the washer and dryer in a garment bag. I've had a couple of mine for over 5 years so it's not damaging them.

My washer has a “hand wash” cycle. I put them in a lingerie bag and in the wash on the hand wash cycle. Lay them over the side of my bathtub to dry. I alternate between Tide and a special soap for bras I got at the lingerie counter.

I hand wash them in Woolite.

But I plan to try the salad spinner method ... once I find the freaking thing. It’s somewhere.

Delicate cycle and then air dry.

I used to hand wash but, well, I'm lazy. I also have a shit ton of them, I wear a couple times, toss in the hamper, and before you know it I have a full load of boulder holders. No time for hand washing.

I put them in a lingerie bag and wash them on cold (with the other laundry) and put them in the dryer. I haven’t timed it, but they seem to last long enough.

I also wash every time I wear because they touch my skin. Gross to not wash them every time:

You people and your quaint little categories.
Dreft on the gentle cycle in a lingerie bag, then air-dry.

Almost this. I use regular powdered tide or whatever scent/dye free stuff.

I guess I don’t care much but I just throw them in the washer and air dry them.

I wash mine in the washer in a bra bag thingie (it's honestly just an over-priced mesh bag :$ ) on the "hand wash" cycle.

I do use a special detergent for bras. It keeps the bras from getting the deodorant gunk buildup.


Then they air dry.

Sometimes I throw them in the washer and then make sure to air dry them afterwards; sometimes I take them into the bathtub with me when I take a bath and wash them -- not the body wash though -- scented stuff smells gross on drying clothes -- so just regular soap.

Wash with the regular laundry and into the dryer they go. I don’t even unhook them first.

NO. I am sexy and pretty.
Wash with Woolite on the delicate cycle, usually in lingerie bags but sometimes not if I'm too lazy, hang to dry.

Wash in machine and hang to dry, usually wash with delicates but not always. I don’t buy expensive bras and I am smallish (36 b).

I live in cool climate so I wear each bra two or three time between washes- except for sports bras which are washed after a workout.

Hand wash in the sink, and then air dry. My spare bathroom always seems to have bras in various stages of in the sink to hanging to dry. I clear them all out of there if company is expected. If you show up unexpected, well you may get a lingerie show.

Same. Here I thought I was being good by hanging them to dry instead of putting them in the drier. I don't even own a mesh/lingerie bag :$

Hand wash after three wears*, lay flat to dry.

But never three consecutive wears.

I just wash and dry in the machines. I used to be more careful, hand wash and air dry, but when I went to Alaska I had to put them into my laundry bag for the laundry people to do and I realized that I was wasting my time. :) I just make sure to hook the hooks before washing them so they don't end up hooked to other things.

I have a top loading washer and I have to put bras and tights in a mesh bag otherwise they get tangled around the agitator.

I have a top loader too. I do not hook the back and unhook the straps (if possible - some are multi way bras) so they don't tangle.
