Dashiki prints are infamous, and have been used over the past couple of decades as a statement cloth for the African diaspora. While there are many other symbols of African pride this one in particular is the golden child in the Americas. This does not mean that it is exclusive to Africans in the diaspora, all races of people use and wear this print. As with anything else we wear that comes from a different part of the world, it is important to understand the identity and value of the things we use.
 

Removing Sticker Labels:

Press an iron on the back of the section of fabric that has the label attached to it. Allow enough steam to pass through the fabric, this will allow the label to peel off with ease and minimal residue left on the surface of the fabric. Do not wash before removing the sticker labels.

How to Soften Wax Print Fabric:

Our pre-washed fabric will be softer than any unwashed wax print fabric and will soften more over time. To accelerate softening;

Fill a bucket or washing machine with cold or warm water and add one bottle cap of fabric softener. Allow your fabric to sit and soak overnight before proceeding to wash and rinse. Always wash cold when treating and washing your wax print with bright colors, whites and other prints. Hand washing and air drying are still the most preferred methods of care for wax prints as this preserves its colors and offers less opportunity for disaster, however, in this day and age they may also be the most unlikely methods used.

Another softening method involves the use of salt; anywhere between one quarter cup and half a cup will be sufficient depending on how much fabric is being softened at once. Leave to soak between 24 and 72 hours. Once the wait time has elapsed, carry on with the washing instructions above. Adding fabric softener to the wash cycle will give the softening process an extra boost, if needed.
