Velour Towel Care FAQ

Can I wash velour beach towels with regular laundry?

It's best to wash them separately or with similar soft fabrics to avoid snags from zippers or hooks. Use cold water and a gentle cycle with a mild, bleach-free detergent. Washing separately prevents damage from abrasive items.

How do I keep the embroidery from fraying?

Turn the towel inside out before washing to protect the embroidered area. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can coat the threads and cause them to weaken over time. Turning inside out is a simple habit that adds years to embroidered details.

What's the best way to dry a velour beach towel?

Tumble dry on low heat or air dry flat. High heat can shrink the towel and damage the velour loops. If using a dryer, remove the towel while it's still slightly damp to keep it extra soft. Removing early prevents overdrying and keeps the plush feel.

How do I remove sand and salt from my beach towel?

Shake the towel well outdoors before washing. For salt, rinse the towel in cold water first, then wash as usual. This helps prevent salt crystals from cutting the fibers. A quick rinse before washing protects the fabric from salt damage.

Can I use bleach or stain removers on velour?

Avoid chlorine bleach and harsh stain removers, as they can fade the fiber-reactive dye and break down the velour. For stains, spot-treat with a gentle detergent and cold water. Gentle spot treatment keeps colors vibrant without harsh chemicals.
