How do you keep dark (specifically black) clothing from fading and streaking?

I have used detergent made for dark clothing,but our darks still seem to fade and discolor after the first few washes.


Throw a cup full of vinegar in the wash the first time you wash it.

There's a product from Coral specially for black clothes. Try your nearest Aldi supermarket

If you wash just dark clothes and not with pants -- pants fade shirts and etc.... it's good to wash them in cold water and to set the dryer on low it takes longer but the clothes dnt fade as fast

cold water and Woolite on the gentle cycle

wash in cold water inside out

1) Refrain from using harsh detergents.

2) Wash jeans in cold water -- DO NOT USE WARM WATER -- DO NOT USE HOT WATER as dye will fade tremendously.

3) Line dry the pants over a chair preferably in dim light. DO NOT LINE DRY the pants outside -- the sun's rays will also harm the dye in the pants and fade them.

Throw a bit of black dye like rit in the wash with clothing that is all black like cotton shirts or pants it will re fresh the color of your clothing and will not stain your washer.

Dont buy them

Hanging them inside out on clothes line helps .

try to dry them away from direct sunlight and a moderate heat on iron and wash them gently

on final rinse cycle add a cup of vinegar to water. It restores blacks and colors.

If they are pants turn them inside out before you washing them.Cheer makes a special detergent just for dark clothes.Always use cold water.

most things do fade in time, but always washing them and rinsing them in COLD water helps also

Don't wear it and don't wash it.

Dry cleaning tends not to wash out the color as well. If you can afford it and don't mind the smell you might consider it. It is also a polluter.

wash it fewer times to start with and when you do wash it, try shampoo and wash it inside out. If you air dry it, dry it inside out. If you have the time, hand wash.

hope i helped
