To bring faux fur back to life after washing, gently brush the fur using a wide-tooth comb or a fur brush to detangle and fluff the fibers. Use a blow dryer on a cool setting to help separate the fibers and restore volume, but keep it at least 12 inches away to avoid heat damage. For best results, shake the item out and hang it to dry completely, brushing it a few times throughout the drying process. This method revitalizes faux fur, making it look as good as new.
