# Wash & Care Instructions for your Hugger
## Your Hugger is machine wash & dry! Yay!
Your Hugger is ready to put on your body [safely right out of the package](https://education.prairiewear.com/knowledge/what-does-it-mean-to-be-oeko-tex-standard-100-certified-1?hsLang=en) without washing and is made for wear 24/7, particularly during key recovery times for several days at a time or through a few gym sessions (let it hang to dry in between use) or until you feel it is ready to wash.
When you are finally ready to wash your Hugger, here are your super simple Wash & Care instructions:
---
### 
### **Machine Wash **
- No Bleach
- No Fabric Softener
- Use your regular laundry detergent, wash with like colors in medium temperature / warm water.
### **Tumble Dry**
- - - - Low to Medium Heat

- Washing Tips:
- If you are not using a lingerie bag for your Hugger in the wash, you may want to zip up your Hugger to protect your other items in the wash and your Hugger zipper from catching on items in your wash or the washer itself.
- You can remove the inserts or leave in. Here is some additional [chest insert pads](https://education.prairiewear.com/knowledge/modesty-pad-wear-and-care?hsLang=en)information :)
- - If you find that your Hugger high-performance knit compression isn't "recovering" or feels "stretched out", you likely need to ensure that your Hugger is getting a good wash (warm water with detergent) to remove natural body oils, lotion residue, etc. Also, throw it in the dryer on tumble dry after washing is complete.
- Your Hugger should feel as compressive as the day you first put it on for well over 50 washes and lots of wear with proper care.
Less wash & more wear! Better for your body 😘 & better for the planet 💛
