Taking Care Of Faux Fur Pillows

By Douglas Scott


It is a necessity for everyone to sleep for a healthier life and to be energized so that we could do the things that we have to do. To have the kind of sleep that people want, choosing the right pillows and mattresses is very important since they stand a big role in terms of sleeping. They provide people a comfortable sleep or relaxation.

Americans usually own two to three pillows on their sofa for their living room, or bed. They are much used at home, so having different kinds of it is an advantage. Faux fur pillows are among of those beautiful and comfortable kinds of pillows.

Physically wise, these are considered as one of the cutest. They are so cute and very soft that gives a good feeling when people hug them or sleep on them. Aside from using them in bed, they are good decorations in sofa too because of their nice appeal and attractive texture.

Nevertheless, they could contain some bacteria that could cause some infections to people, like infections on the skin, or lungs that might spread to other parts of the body like the brain. That is why it is very important to keep them clean, especially fur pillows. It is a must to always wash them.

It is suggested that they must be replaced every after six months. Meanwhile, another approach could also be used. You try to fold it, and if it does not spring back into its actual shape, it is the time to find a new one.

Knowing the ways of keeping them clean and soft, especially for faux fur ones which are basically one of those complicated ones is essential. They can be washed either by your own hands, or by a particular washing machine. You just have to be more cautious.

When using a machine, put the item in there, and in limiting the damage on the fur, turn the pillow inside out, set the machine into use cold water and subtle cycle of washing. Use a gentle detergent for laundry, then a fabric softener too, and rinse using the same temperature of water. Use a thick and clean towel to roll it over in order to get the excess water, then shake and put it to its original shape in a placid way.

In washing it using hands, you still use lukewarm or cold water. They have the same kind of detergent or process when you wash it by a machine. You still have to use gentle laundry soap, only that, you should use something designed for hand washing. Gentleness is required for either way, so you have to be careful on handling them before or after cleaning them.

The shape and contents of pillow have changed over the time, yet, its main reason of existence and changes is to give comfort to everyone. But because of some mites or bacteria that could affect the health, it is always necessary not to take them for granted and to make sure that they are always clean. Wash them once a week, and even if you wash them in a cold water, also make sure that you could wash them at least twice a month with a hot one to kill some mites.
