Bed Linen Myths Debunked: What You Should Know

Bed Linen Myths Debunked

Myth 1: All Sheets Feel the Same After a Few Washes.

A common misconception is that all sheets will eventually feel the same after a few washes. However, the quality and type of fabric used in your bed linen can significantly impact how they feel over time. High-quality materials, like the ones used by Miss Lyn, are designed to maintain their softness and luxurious feel wash after wash. By choosing premium bed linen, you ensure long-lasting comfort and a superior sleep experience.

Myth 2: You Should Wash Bed Linen in Hot Water.

  While hot water can kill germs it can also damage delicate fabrics and cause colours to fade faster. Most people that wash their linen in warm or cold water find that their linen maintains its integrity. Using gentle detergent can also increase your linens lifespan. We suggest you follow the wash instructions provided with our linen to keep your linen fresh and soft for many years to come.  

Myth 3: Fabric Softener Makes your Linen Softer.

  Fabric softener can actually decrease the softness and breathability of your linen over time by leaving residue. Instead of using your everyday fabric softener, consider using alternatives such as dryer walls and vinegar to maintain the softness of your sheets.  

Myth 4: Wrinkle-Free Sheets Are the Best Option.

  Many wrinkle free sheets are often treated with chemicals to achieve their smooth appearance. This can reduce the fabrics comfort and breathability. Embracing natural fabrics, even though they might take a bit more ironing, can enhance your sleep experience. At Miss Lyn we provide natural bed linen that is as beautiful as they are comfortable, ensuring your bed looks inviting and feels comfortable at all times.  

Myth 5: All Cotton Sheets Are The Same.

Not all linen sheets are created equal. The quality of your cotton sheets depends on the type of cotton used and the weaving process. Cotton percale, known for its crisp texture and durability, is considered one of the highest-quality weaves available. We use cotton percale in our linen collection, ensuring you experience the perfect blend of comfort, breathability, and lasting quality.
