For best results, hang dry your clothing on a drying rack or a hanger. • To hand wash in a sink or plastic washtub – use warm water and a very small amount of detergent. Allow clothing to soak in the soap and water for several minutes and rub the clothing on any dirty parts. After washing, rinse all the detergent out of the clothing. After rinsing, squeeze all excess water out of the clothing. Hang clothes to dry on a drying rack or on a hanger over the bathtub. • If you notice a rip in your clothing, it is your responsibility to repair it as soon as possible. • If you notice that your clothing is becoming too small, it is your responsibility to wash it and exchange it for a larger size. Students may request a replacement item of dancewear if they have an item that they have outgrown or that is worn beyond repair.
