how often do you guys wash your jeans? do you wash them after you wear them only once? twice?
i usually wash my jeans after i've worn them twice. but i hate washing them because then they shrink and get all tight. |

I usually wash them after I wear them twice. They shrink depending on the material of the jeans. Don't buy ones that stretch. If you do have them, put them in the washer but not the dryer. Hang it on a clothesline or something and iron them afterwards. They shouldn't shrink that way.

i can never tell if my clothes are shrinking or i'm growing.
i wash them when they're dirty. which is usually a couple of weeks or so. i mean, they're jeans. if you're just going around school, they're not getting dirty. |

I usually wear mine for two weeks. I do laundry every two weeks. It works out well because I have two decent pairs of jeans, so I wear one for two weeks, then wash them and wear the other one.

^x2 I agree. I don't wash my jeans NEARLY as much as you guys do. I think it's unnecessary. Excessive washing only breaks clothes down faster.
I mean, it's not like my ass is sweating the whole time through math, or that I'm rolling around in the mud and grass. |

Exactly. Jeans are so multifunctional. I even sleep in my jeans.

I would wash my jeans every single time they were dirty, but now I wash them every 2-3 times. Unless they're these certain jeans that get really loose to where I'm like swimming in them.

Usually wash them after wearing the jeans twice..
When washing them I usually flip my jeans inside out so the color doesn't fade much ... and then dry it half way so I can hang dry... |

I just wear pants, take them off, and throw them in the hamper.
On the weekend, I clean it. And that's it. |

Umm probably every 3 or so times. With some of my jeans, I can wear them twice and have to wash them to get the same fit.

I wash my jeans about every 3 times if they aren't dirty before that. I don't really see the point in washing them if I just wore them to school and they aren't like dirty.

just like mipadi and Justin, i wash mine when they actually get dirty.
if you just bought a pair of jeans, or just washed them and whore them to school and came back home. nothing is wrong with the jeans, (unless you totally stained them xD) no stains, no stank, no nothin' ![]() |

Usually once or twice. I just hate how the colors fade.
I have this one pair of jeans and it got all over my whites (I don't seperate) and yeah, it's all blue. |

Well, I usually wear jeans everyday, so I usually wash them every week. :/ I dunno, I don't really keep track of that stuff.

i dont' turn the inside out. because it's the outside that's the dirtiest, and people pay extra for faded jeans.
plus my laundry detergent doesnt' fade my jeans... |

I dunno.. I wash clothes every week or so or whenever I feel like it, so I wear jeans in sort of a cycle until I get around to washing them. I have about six pairs of jeans that I really like, and I don't keep track of how often I've worn them. :P

It depends. If I wear them and they don't get dirty, I won't wash them until I've worn them at least three times. And it doesn't help that I've got like a million pairs and wear only like, a select two or three.
And besides, I don't like to wash them a lot because I don't want the color to fade. (Which is why you wash it inside out, it does help.) But I do like that they shrink! Like my Sevens and Hollister jeans were uber, ridonkulously long and I washed them and they shrunk a good amount so they fit fine now. :) It does suck to be under five feet. >.< |

We do laundry every week, so If they've been worn I throw 'em in. I usually wear them 2-3 times before this happens.

I wash them once a week. It depends, because I only wear jeans 1-2 times that week. I have the urge to wash my jeans because after wearing them twice it's like.. I gotta wash them haha. :P

wash after every wear.
you know how your jeans are semi-tight when you first put them on in the morning, and by the afternoon they are almost sagging? well, im skinny, and that happens to me alot. i;ve tried to wear jeans two or three times before, but the over-use makes them really big, so i kind of have to wash (and dry) them. |

i like my jeans saggyish. yet not billowy. which is a remarkable feat accomplished by first drying it 20 minutes, then air drying it, then in the dryer for 5 more minutes.

Ok, I'll take that in mind about washing stretch jeans! I recently bought a pair....... so just chuck them in the washing machine and hanging it to dry it alright? Like it won't shrink? I HATE jeans that are so tight that I feel like sumbody's grabbing my butt!!! |

I wash my jeans everytime I'm done wearing them. Sometimes I'll wear them twice if I have to.
I was talking to this kid at school yesterday and he said he wears his jeans 8 times before washing them! That is GROSS! ![]() |

I wash them when they're dirty. Mine get dirty easily though because they drag on the floor since I'm so short.
