🧺 How to Wash and Care for Your Keffiyeh
A genuine keffiyeh is more than an accessory — it’s a symbol of identity, heritage, and craftsmanship. Whether made from viscose-cotton, cotton-acrylic, or polyester blends, each AlFajr Keffiyeh Co. piece is woven to last. With proper care, it will retain its texture, color, and softness for years. Here’s how to wash and maintain your keffiyeh to keep it looking timeless and dignified.
🌿 Know Your Fabric
Every material has its own personality — and care routine:
- Viscose + Cotton: Soft, breathable, and slightly delicate. Best suited to gentle washing in cool water.
- Cotton + Acrylic: Durable and color-rich; handle with mild detergent and avoid high heat to prevent fading.
- Polyester: Wrinkle-resistant and quick-drying — ideal for travel and everyday wear. Machine wash with care.

🧴 Step-by-Step Washing Guide
- Check the label: Always look for fabric composition to choose the correct method.
- Use cool or lukewarm water: Hot water can weaken fibers and cause shrinkage, especially in viscose-cotton blends.
- Hand wash or gentle cycle: For viscose and acrylic blends, hand washing is best. Polyester can tolerate machine wash — gentle spin only.
- Use mild detergent: Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals. A small drop of liquid detergent keeps fibers strong and colors vibrant.
- Do not wring: Gently press out water. Wringing can stretch tassels and distort the weave.

🌤️ Drying & Ironing
- Air dry in shade: Never expose your keffiyeh to direct sunlight — it can fade darker shades like red and black.
- Lay flat to dry: Hanging may stretch delicate blends; laying flat keeps the weave intact.
- Iron on low heat: If needed, iron on the reverse side using low to medium heat. Avoid ironing tassels or embroidery details.

🪶 Storage & Long-Term Care
To keep your keffiyeh looking new:
- Fold neatly and store in a cool, dry place.
- Avoid plastic bags — let the fabric breathe.
- For tassel care, lightly comb them after washing to maintain their flow and symmetry.
