Soak the fabric for 5-10 minutes. Step 2. For particularly soiled areas, gently rub with your hands. Step 3. For general washing, simply rinse gently in water. Do not rub or twist forcefully. Step 4. After washing, yellowish-brown pigment will dissolve. Discard this colored water. Step 5. Rinse with clean water 2-3 times. Stop rinsing when the water turns blue to prevent dye runoff and fading. Step 6. Air dry in a well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight. If sun exposure is unavoidable, turn the hat inside out to face outwards and limit exposure to no more than 30 minutes. **Prohibitions** 1. Do not use strong detergents or bleach during washing. 2. Do not use a brush to scrub. 3. Do not machine wash the fabric. **Storage Method** 1. After washing and air-drying, you may iron the fabric. Then, store it in a paper bag, plastic bag, or zip-top bag in a dark place (e.g., inside a wardrobe). 2. The fabric will oxidize with air, releasing a yellowish pigment, causing the product to appear slightly pale yellow. You can wash it again using the method described above, and the blue luster will become more vibrant and enduring.
