How to make your abaya or khimar last longer?

Many girls complain that their abaya or khimar changes shape after a short period of use: the color fades, the fabric sags, or the stitching frays.
The truth is that a large part of the problem stems from the way the garment is cared for, not just the material itself.
Of course, if the fabric is from Oswa, you’re guaranteed to have the right start, as our products are made with durable materials that can withstand use.

✨ 1. Proper Washing Is the Key

The biggest mistake that affects any modest outfit is improper washing.

Wash abayas and khimars in lukewarm, not hot, water to prevent the colors from fading.

Avoid detergents that contain harsh ingredients that can scratch the fabric. Choose a gentle detergent or one designed for delicate fabrics.

If you have an automatic washing machine, use the short program or hand wash.

🌬️ 2. Gentle Drying

Direct sunlight is the enemy of colors Dark.

Leave the abaya to dry in a shaded, airy place.

Hang it on a wide hanger to prevent it from cracking and bending at the shoulder.

Avoid vigorous drying in an electric dryer, as this weakens the fabric.

👗 3. Proper Storage

Many girls leave their clothes lying around in the closet. The result? The abaya’s appearance changes.

The abaya is always hanging up, not folding.

Take the khimar out once and leave it in its own drawer.

If you have ready-made sets from Oswa, store each set together so it doesn’t get lost.

🧵 4. Simple Maintenance

Repair any frayed thread or stitching immediately before the problem becomes bigger.

Don’t pin the hijab in the same place every time. Try different places to avoid fraying the fabric. It doesn’t tear.

And very important: If the product has a warranty from Oswa against manufacturing defects (one full month), take advantage of it if you notice any problems.
