Can berets be washed? How to clean berets?

Berets are a very popular type of hat. Berets are very fashionable and retro, and they appear frequently in autumn and winter. Berets need to be cleaned when they are dirty. When cleaning berets, be careful not to deform them.

Whether a beret can be washed depends on the material of the beret. Not all materials can be washed. The shape of the beret is very important for it to look good on your head. Remember, you cannot wash the beret in a washing machine, as it will deform the beret. Soak it in clean water for a while, then pour in a soft detergent, and scrub the dirty parts with your hands. Do not scrub with brute force. After washing, do not wring the beret out, just let it dry naturally.

1. Leather beret

Leather berets cannot be washed with water. Use a slightly wet towel to wipe the dirty areas. After wiping, use a dry towel or paper to absorb the water. Don't take leather berets out on rainy days. If they are not wiped dry for a long time, they are prone to mold and lose their luster. You can do partial cleaning of leather berets at home. If you want to clean the whole thing, send it to a dry cleaner.

2. Cashmere beret

Cashmere is a material that will shrink as soon as it comes into contact with water, and the hat will become smaller. If the hat is too tight on your head, it will not look good. If you really want to wash it, send it to a dry cleaner.

3. Woolen beret

Woolen material will shrink and deform once it comes into contact with water, so it is not suitable for washing. Send it to a dry cleaner if you want to wash it. Once a woolen beret is stained, wipe it with a wet paper towel immediately. Once the stain enters the wool, it cannot be washed away. If there is dust on the woolen hat, put a wet towel on it to absorb the dust.

4. Wool beret

This can be washed in water like normal clothes.

After washing the beret, you need to put a hat stand inside the hat to prevent the hat from deforming. If there is no hat stand, you can wrap it in a ball made of old newspaper and put it inside. Do not expose it to the sun, as it will easily change the color of the hat. White hats will turn yellow when exposed to the sun. Just put it in a ventilated place. When storing the hat, you should also pay attention to maintaining the shape of the hat and do not press it with heavy objects. If you are going to wear it for a long time, you can put mothballs inside the hat to prevent insects.

Wearing method 1: buckle it casually

If the beret is made of relatively stiff wool, you can put it on your head directly without shaping it, but keep the brim fluffy and three-dimensional. But don't wear it too high, the front edge of the hat is best just above the eyebrows, which looks elegant, casual and casual.

Wearing method 2: Wear it diagonally

The most classic way to wear a beret is to wear it slightly tilted, with the soft top leaning to one side, which can also modify the face shape and reduce the difficulty of wearing a beret. No matter what clothes you match it with, it can exude a retro, elegant and fresh French style.
