How to Wash the "Comic Pop" Pink SquishPillow Pillowcase

Quick answer

Wash your "Comic Pop" Pink SquishPillow Pillowcase in cold water on a gentle cycle with mild detergent, then air dry it flat or line dry. Avoid hot water, bleach, and high heat to preserve the super-soft, stretchy fabric.

Step-by-step washing routine

1. Check the care label first: Turn the pillowcase inside out and read any sewn-in care instructions before washing. If the label is missing or unclear, default to the gentlest method: cold water and air drying. When in doubt, treat it like delicates—never guess with heat.
2. Pre-treat spots gently: Dab small stains with a tiny amount of mild liquid detergent and cool water using your fingertips. Skip harsh stain removers or scrubbing, which can damage the stretchy fibers. Blot, don't rub—agitation is what dulls the print.
3. Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle: Place the pillowcase in a mesh laundry bag, then wash on a cold, gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softener and bleach, which can leave residue or weaken the fabric. Cold water protects both the pink color and the stretch.
4. Skip the dryer: Lay the pillowcase flat to air dry or hang it on a line, reshaping it while damp. If you must use a dryer, choose the lowest heat setting and remove it while slightly damp. Air drying is the simplest way to keep the pillowcase soft.
5. Store it loosely: Once fully dry, fold the pillowcase loosely and store it in a dry drawer or linen closet. Avoid cramming it into tight spaces, which can create permanent creases in the stretch fabric. A little breathing room keeps the next wash easier.
