Cleaning cotton dolls requires careful operation to ensure the integrity and safety of the doll.

Prepare a basin of warm water. The water temperature should not be too high. It is best to control it at around 30℃ to avoid damaging the fabric or filling of the doll. Add an appropriate amount of mild neutral detergent to the warm water, stir evenly, and ensure that the detergent is completely dissolved.

Put the cotton doll in clean water and gently squeeze and rub it. Be careful not to use too much force to avoid destroying the shape of the doll or damaging the filling inside. For detailed parts such as the face, hands and feet of the doll, you can use a soft brush or a clean damp cloth to gently wipe it to remove stains.

After washing, take the doll out of the water and gently squeeze out the excess water, but do not wring it hard. Then put the doll on a clean towel, wrap it gently with a towel and pat it to absorb the excess water. This step is very important because too much moisture may cause the filling inside the doll to mold or deteriorate.

After the doll is slightly dry, you can use a hair dryer to blow it dry at a low temperature, but keep a certain distance to avoid high temperature damage to the fabric. You can also choose to dry naturally, place the doll in a well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight, and let it dry slowly.

During the cleaning process, you also need to pay attention to some details. For example, for dolls with special decorations or accessories, such as beads, sequins, etc., be especially careful to avoid falling off or damage during the cleaning process. If the fabric of the doll is delicate or has special stains, you can consider using a special fabric cleaner or sending it to a professional cleaning shop for cleaning.
