“I am a Sandcloud fan! But, this is heavier than I thought it would be. I thought when I washed it a few times it might “soften up” a little, but it hasn’t yet. I don’t know when I will use this, but I don’t think it will work for me for a beach coverup due to being heavy, thick and bulky.”
Hello Kathy,
We're very sorry to hear about this.
We recommend soaking it in cold water for a few hours or overnight and hang drying it. Natural cotton needs to be "broken in", which allows the fibers to bloom, be softer and reach maximum absorbency with better performance.
Succeeding washes: Gentle cycle on your washing machine and dry at a low heat on the dryer.
IMPORTANT: Avoid fabric softeners and dryer sheets as they gunk up the fibers making them less absorbent. And of course, avoid bleach!
Kindly try this remedy and please do let us know whether it's effective so that we can help you further.
Warm regards,
Cathy,
Sand Cloud.
