How Often Should You Wash Your Jeans? The Truth:

November 5, 2019

How Often Should You Wash Your Jeans

How Often Should You Wash Your Jeans? It Depends…

(Read the full Instagram post below)

Are you worried about washing your jeans too often?  Concerned about maintaining the integrity of your favorite pair?

How often to wash your jeans really comes down to personal preference, in my opinion.  I don’t think there is a “right” or “wrong” answer. 

For me, a lot has to do with where I’ve been and how hot it is outside. Generally speaking, I wash mine pretty often.

But What About Over-Washing?

Personally, I fluctuate between sizes and have several styles of jeans, so there are (probably too) many pairs in my closet.  Therefore, I’ve never had a problem with washing them.  However, I never put them in the dryer.

Freezing Denim?

Yeah, this is a thing, in case you haven’t heard of it.  I heard of it only recently.  People have been doing this for a quite a while, to kill bacteria and remove odors. Although you’d think freezing your jeans would kill any nasty bacteria, scientists say that many bacteria can actually survive the freeze!

How Often Should You Wash Your Jeans? Have you heard of freezing them instead? Yeah, it’s really a thing… . I know lots of people don’t wash their denim very often, so that their jeans will maintain their shape and integrity. Personally, I’m a germaphobe and if I’ve been out in public, those babies are goin’ in the machine. 😷

.

Now, of course, I hang them up to dry which I recommend 100%. Never put them in the dryer. IMO, this is the best way to extend the life of your clothes. .

Also I have the LG machine with the “steam clean” feature. I’ll use this if my jeans are only slightly worn to freshen them up.

.

Have you heard of the practice of freezing your jeans in a Ziploc bag to kill bacteria and remove odors in-between wears? Actually this idea has been around for quite a while, in case you haven’t heard of it. I hadn’t until recently.

.

Yeah, in 2011 Levi Strauss urged people to do just that. And, you’d think freezing temps would kill any icky germs lingering in your jeans. However,  surprisingly, scientists say that many bacteria will actually survive these low temps! 😱

.

So, how often should you wash your jeans? Personally, I treat my jeans like any other item in my wardrobe. I wash them after nearly every wear – because that’s how I roll. But really, it depends on where I’ve been while wearing them, and also on how cool the weather is.

.

If I’ve been sweating, they’re goin’ in. Traveling on an airplane? Don’t think twice about it – they’re goin’ in! If I’ve been mostly in the car and just running errands, I’ll probably put them back in the closet after a quick steam in the washer. I think this really comes down to personal preference. If you’re like me, I fluctuate between sizes and have several styles of jeans in my closet. Therefore, none of them really get heavy wear, so washing them has never been a problem. .

Now, you know I normally don't go crazy for these Now, you know I normally don't go crazy for these national holidays... but with National Popcorn Day and National Cheese Lover's Day back to back, I couldn't resist! 😂 
.
(Popcorn and cheese - you see where my priorities are!!)
.
So, for National Cheese Lover's Day, I wanted to share my cheese board with you guys... 
.
I've owned this wooden cheese pedestal from @potterybarn for a couple of years now.  My BFF @jeaninenorra bought one, and of course I had to go out and get it immediately because it was THAT fabulous.  Yes, she offered to let me borrow hers... but it was so cool I just had to buy my own!
.
We use it every time we have any sort of get-together at the house.  I love how it makes a simple, elegant presentation.  It's great quality and quite heavy, so it really is a good investment. (Side note, the BFF's boyfriend says he's going to purchase a termite contract on the board...) 🤣 
.
I own just the pedestal, as shown in these photos.  There is also a wood slab cheese board.  It can be used to "nest" under and next to the pedestal, for a really elegant presentation.  I love this idea, so I'm considering buying this as well. 
.
Do you love cheese and enjoy making cheese boards?  Share your favorite cheeses and cheese board ideas! #cheeseloversday
