How to Wash Viscose Without Shrinking

Viscose is a delicate fabric that can shrink if not cared for properly, often mistaken for cotton which can withstand higher temperatures. Always check the care label before washing viscose!

Does Viscose Shrink When Washed?
Yes, viscose is prone to shrinking when exposed to moisture, as its fibers weaken when wet. This can lead to shrinkage or color loss when dried.

Why Does Viscose Shrink?
Viscose is a manmade fabric with weak fibers that aren’t designed to handle warm water or heat, which causes shrinkage.

Will Viscose Shrink in Cold Water?
No, viscose won’t shrink in cold water, which is why it’s essential to use cool water when washing.

Can You Machine Wash Viscose?
Generally, viscose should not be machine washed unless specifically stated on the garment label. Some blends are washable, but always check the label for instructions.

Can You Hand Wash Viscose?
Yes, hand washing is the safest way to clean viscose. Use cool water and a gentle detergent, soak for 30 minutes, then rinse and air dry.

How to Care for Viscose After Washing
Avoid wringing out viscose. Gently press out water and air dry. Store in a cool, dry place to avoid shrinkage.
