unless you have a delicate cycle you should. If they are real lacy you should have been handwashing them from the start...don't ask why I know that.

Handwash them, same thing goes for your bras. It's tempting to just throw them in the washer; but after a while the washer will warp and bend the wires if it is an underwire bra. Not only that, bras are notorious for getting tangled in everything else in the load!! Woolite works great for this purpose, especially for lacy lingerie. :)

I use Forever New in a bit of cool water in the sink....lacy undies don't remain lacy for long if you use the washing machine. Another trick is to use one of those mesh laundry bags and set the washer to delicate.

Absolutely! You should handwash all your delicates, bras and underwear. Don't use Tide or Woolite because they leave a residue on any synthetic fabrics, eventually causing the fibers to dry out. Try to use hair shampoo or dish soap. Never EVER put your delicates in the dryer...air dry always.

Always handwash sensitive material. Otherwise, use a mesh bag and wash with woolite on delicate and lay flat to air dry.

If you are using the regular cycle, try using the delicate cycle. That is how I've done mine for years without damage. Also, I don't use regular detergents, I use Woolite for delicates. And, I wash bras and panties in a delicate mesh bag for extra protection in a load all of their own.

either hand wash or get one of those mesh bags to keep them from getting torn any further. I'd go for handwashing though, just to be safe.

Yes. OR if your washer has a handwash setting then use that. that's the one I use for all my "delicates" & they're all fine.

They make a "mesh"garment bag ,you can put them all in,then, toss the bag and all into the washer,and dryer.It protects them from rubbing against the other garments in the machines,thereby,making them last longer,and stay as nice as when you bought them.
