Question
Can baby clothing be washed with detergent?
Answer
It’s best not to use detergent for baby clothing. Using common cleaning products like detergents and soaps, which are alkaline, can pose the following issues: on one hand, incomplete rinsing can leave residues on baby clothes, potentially harming the baby’s skin and affecting their health; on the other hand, detergents are not soft enough and can easily irritate the baby’s delicate skin, possibly causing rashes in severe cases. Therefore, for younger children, it is recommended to choose neutral and gentle baby-specific laundry detergents.
