 How should I wash my Pretied Bandanna head scarf?

 The general rule of thumb is - the more gentle you are, the longer the Pretied will last.

 We recommend hand washing in cold water and laying it flat to dry on a towel to prevent stretching.

 Please note that Pretied Israeli Tichels (also known as Pretied Mitpachot or Pretied Head Scarves) with lurex should be treated the same as regular Israeli Tichels. They should be hand washed and layed flat to dry. Doing so will lengthen the lifespan of the Israeli Tichel Pretied. Never Put a Pretied Israeli Tichel in the Washing Machine!
