Who knew sticking a handful of table salt would help with this?!
Now, we’re not saying go put a red shirt in with your white socks (you’ll likely end up with pink socks), BUT there’s actually a reason salt has a reputation for helping with colour. A little chemistry lesson for you!
Salt has long been used in certain fabric dyeing processes to help dyes bond to fibres. A handful of regular table salt, a cold wash, and apparently one less thing to worry about when someone else in the family puts the washing on. A little disclaimer: This is Lisa’s tried-and-tested household trick, and results may vary!
