I’m a cleaning guru, how to keep your bedsheets sparkling white and why you need to do it every 2 months
THERE’S nothing better than getting into a freshly made bed, complete with newly washed sheets.
And if you’re looking for a failsafe way to ensure your sheets are always sparkling clean and white, a cleaning fan has shared their favourite technique – and it only has to be done once every two to three months.
TikTok cleanfluencer Tiffany, aka @tiffanyandtheclean, posted a step-by-step tutorial on the social media site, captioning the post: “There’s nothing like crisp fresh white sheets.”
Tiffany then explained: “I’ve had white bedsheets for years because, honestly, it’s much easier to look after them than colourful sheets.
“You can basically mix and match any of them from any set as they’re all white.
“However, I hate the look of yellowing sheets, it’s just not the vibe we’re looking for.”

It was then Tiffany shared her secret cleaning method, which involves soaking the sheets in a special solution before washing them as usual.
She continued: “I do a bleach wash every two to three months to keep them looking good.
“Take your dirty sheets and fill up a bucket with hot water and add your clothing bleach – not the kind you use for your toilet.
“Wearing gloves, put your sheets in – and sometimes I add other clothing like t-shirts, or fleeces.”

She continued: “Let it soak for at least a few hours. Or I sometimes leave mine overnight.
“Once they’re done soaking, ring out the water and put in your washing machine like you usually would with soap and other clothes.”

Then there’s only one thing left to do – simply taking them out of the machine and leaving them out to fully dry.
