Hi Cutie, I've got a question about laundry. Can I wash black with colors?
Hello! In general, it's best to separate your laundry into different color categories - whites, lights, darks, and bright colors. Black clothes, especially new ones, can bleed color during washing which can affect other colors.
But what if I've washed the black clothes few times already?
Well, if your black clothes have been washed multiple times previously, the risk of color bleeding is reduced. However, it is still safer to wash them with dark colors only, to prevent any possible dye transfer.
What'll happen if I mix them anyway?
If you mix them, there's a risk that the dye from the black clothes might transfer to the colored clothes, which can lead to discoloration. While the risk is reduced after multiple washes, it's still safer to avoid mixing different color categories.
