Tricks to Dark Skin Men

Before we know how to restore faded black clothes, we have to know that black clothes are an important outfit for everyone.

Even if you have dark skin, having dark skin is not an obstacle to being fashionable and attractive.

Do you know? Dark-skinned men often look more masculine because dark-skinned men don’t have a color that clashes with their skin, making a better look with darker skin.

If you want to improve your outfit, especially at work, you can try some of the tips below to look more fashionable with dark and exotic skin.

Don’t use White

As a man with dark skin, you don’t have to wear white underwear because the whites of your underwear will stand out against the darker parts of your skin.

This is an unwritten rule common among men with dark skin. For that, you can choose other colors, such as beige, light pink or alabaster shirts.

Use Black Socks

Try to wear your favorite black socks as one of the footwear of your shoes. You should wear black socks if you are a dark-skinned man.

This is to make you look more stylish. Light and brown socks will clash with dark skin and make you look weird.

Experiment with Bright Colors

Your dark skin makes an excellent backdrop for shirts in bright colors. In addition, you can experiment with brightly colored clothes to bring a new and memorable look to your coworkers and business associates.

T-Shirt in Warm Colors

Apart from wearing bright undershirts, it would help if you tried them out in warm colors. Oranges, reds, and yellows will all look very sexy on your dark skin.

According to the rules, the darker your skin, the lighter the t-shirt you can wear. For example, pink will work well on your dark skin.

How to Restore Faded Black Clothes

There are various ways how to restore faded black clothes, you only need to do a few simple steps:

1. Separate Shirts by Color

Avoid mixing light-colored clothes with dark-colored clothes because black t-shirts tend to fade when washed.

When no light colors absorb them, the color will reabsorb into the black t-shirt fibers.

2. Do not Take it too Long to Wash it

Don’t soak the shirt for too long. Thirty minutes is enough. Detergent can cause t-shirt screen printing to break down quickly and peel off if soaked for too long.

Also, avoid brushing the t-shirt because it can damage the texture of the fabric because most t-shirts are made of soft and soft cotton. Squeezing and rubbing too hard can also damage the fabric.

3. Use a Special Detergent

Special detergents for dark-colored clothes can help the colors of clothes not fade quickly.

This detergent is specially formulated to neutralize chlorine from tap water so that when you wash it, your black shirt won’t shrink soon.

Avoid using detergents that contain bleach because chemical reactions can occur, which can cause the color of the sweater to fade quickly, and the screen will peel off quickly.

In addition, detergents that contain bleach can also cause t-shirts to become thin and rough.

4. Dry the T-shirt in a Way Upside Down

Direct contact with water and detergent and friction on the surface of the fabric can erode the color of the shirt.

The effect is that the shirt’s color will fade quickly on the side that faces outward when you wash it.

5. Wash the Shirt in Cold Water

Avoid washing t-shirts with warm water; this also applies to all types of branded clothes. Warm water can break down the fibers so that the color on the t-shirt material will quickly fade.

When washing, use cold water that has a temperature between 15.6 and 26.7 degrees Celsius. You have to keep the temperature properly because we have to prevent detergent.

6. Avoid Drying the Shirt in Direct Sunlight

When drying other dark-colored clothes, avoid exposing them to direct sunlight. Sunlight can act as a natural bleach which can make your black t-shirt fade quickly.

If using the dryer in the washing machine, apply it to the lowest temperature so that the color of the shirt does not bleed.

 7. Don’t Wash too Often

Avoid washing shirts too often. As much as possible, wash the t-shirts manually. Washing the t-shirts by hands will be better in maintaining the texture of the fabric and the t-shirt screen printing, so it doesn’t get damaged quickly.

Another Method

1. Using Coffee

The natural way you can try is to use coffee, even your clothes made from cotton. First of all, you can put black clothes into the washing machine or bucket filled with cold water.

Then, brew coffee according to the needs of at least two cups of coffee. After brewing it, you can immediately pour the coffee into the washing machine or bucket.

Those of you who choose to use the washing machine, put the coffee while the clothes are being ground.

As for those in the bucket, you can put it while you are rubbing clothes. Finally, you can immediately dry it in the sun.

Before drying, avoid exposure to direct sunlight, turn your clothes over and then dry in the sun.

2. Using Shampoo

Prepare a clean bucket filled with cold water. You can replace detergent with shampoo. Yup, why use shampoo? Because shampoo does not contain high chemical levels, it is safe for your favorite black outfit.

After filling it with cold water, you can immediately soak your clothes with cold water mixed with shampoo, soak for a maximum of 30 minutes then you can rub it slowly. Then, immediately dry in the sun, Bela!
