How to Care for Your Sunglasses, Hats & Scarves

Quality fashion accessories are investments in your everyday personal style. Whether it's your favorite pair of UV-blocking sunglasses, a structured sun hat, or a soft, cozy winter scarf, proper maintenance ensures they retain their shape, color, and finish for years to come.

At Tinyboba, we want your favorite pieces to look pristine wear after wear. Here is our expert guide on how to clean, store, and care for your essential accessories.

1. Caring for Your Sunglasses

Sunglasses endure daily wear—from being tossed into bags to sitting under direct dashboard sun. To keep lenses crystal clear and frames sturdy, follow these simple rules:

• Always Use a Microfiber Cloth: Avoid cleaning lenses with paper towels or shirt hems, which can micro-scratch coatings. Use a dedicated microfiber pouch or cloth.
• Store in a Hard Case: Never leave sunglasses unprotected at the bottom of a handbag where frames can warp or lenses can crack.
• Avoid Extreme Heat: Do not leave your sunglasses on a hot car dashboard, as high temperatures can distort plastic frames and damage lens filters.

2. Maintaining the Shape and Fabric of Hats

Hats instantly elevate an outfit, but they easily lose their form if stored incorrectly or exposed to moisture.

• Dust and Spot Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush or damp cloth to gently remove dust or surface dirt depending on the fabric. Avoid submerging structured hats in water unless specified on the care label.
• Proper Storage: Store hats on a flat surface or stuff the crown with clean tissue paper to help them maintain their original shape when not in use.

3. Washing and Storing Scarves Properly

From lightweight silk-feel spring wraps to thick winter knits, scarves touch your skin daily and require gentle washing routines.

• Hand Wash Delicate Fabrics: Wash delicate or wool scarves by hand using cold water and a mild detergent. Never wring them out; instead, press out excess water gently using a clean towel.
• Fold, Don't Hang Heavy Knits: Heavy knit scarves can stretch out of shape if hung on narrow hooks for long periods. Fold them neatly in drawers or store them in breathable fabric bins.
