Bydee Swimwear is beloved for its elegant designs, luxurious fabrics, and flattering fits—but like any high-quality swimsuit, proper care is essential to keeping it looking and feeling its best. Whether you’re lounging poolside or diving into salty ocean waves, how you treat your swimwear afterward can dramatically impact its lifespan. Here’s how to extend the life of your Bydee pieces with care routines that protect the fabric, fit, and color.
Why Proper Care Matters
Bydee suits are crafted with delicate materials that balance style and performance. While these fabrics are durable enough for regular use, they’re also susceptible to damage from chlorine, saltwater, sunscreen, and rough surfaces. Improper care can lead to:
- Faded colors
- Stretched-out straps
- Pilled or thinned fabric
- Reduced elasticity
Investing in gentle care habits ensures your swimsuit stays beautiful and supportive season after season.
Step 1: Rinse Immediately After Use
Saltwater, chlorine, and sweat can all break down swimwear fabric over time. After each wear—even if you didn’t swim—rinse your Bydee swimsuit in cool, fresh water as soon as possible. This helps remove any residue before it sets in and starts causing damage.
Step 2: Hand Wash with Mild Detergent
Skip the washing machine! Instead, hand wash your swimsuit using lukewarm water and a gentle detergent specifically formulated for delicates or swimwear. Avoid regular laundry soap, as it can be too harsh and strip the fabric of its elasticity and color.
Washing tips:
- Soak for about 10 minutes
- Gently rub areas like the straps or bottoms to remove sunscreen or oils
- Never wring or twist the fabric—press water out gently with your hands
Step 3: Air Dry the Right Way
Once clean, dry your swimsuit by laying it flat on a towel in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight, which can cause colors to fade. Never use a dryer, and don’t hang your suit by the straps, as this can stretch them out.
Pro tip: If you’re on vacation and must dry quickly, roll the suit in a dry towel to absorb excess moisture before air drying.
Step 4: Rotate Between Swimsuits
Even if you love your Bydee bikini and want to wear it every day, it’s best to give your swimsuit a break. The elastic fibers in swimwear need time to recover, so rotating between suits helps maintain their shape and stretch.
Step 5: Store with Care
At the end of the season or between uses, store your Bydee swimwear in a cool, dry drawer. Avoid leaving it damp in a beach bag or storing it in plastic bags, which can trap moisture and cause mildew.
If your suit has hardware, ties, or embellishments, fold it gently to avoid creasing or pulling. Some customers even use mesh lingerie bags to keep suits organized and protected in storage.
Bonus Tips for Longevity
- Avoid rough surfaces like concrete or pool ledges that can snag or pill fabric. Sit on a towel to protect your suit.
- Watch out for sunscreen stains by applying lotion or oil 15–30 minutes before putting your suit on.
- Check care tags for any brand-specific instructions from Bydee.
- Limit hot tub exposure, as heat and chemicals can be especially harsh on delicate swimwear fabrics.
