To use this bikini bottom, simply put it on like you would any regular swim bottom. It's designed to fit comfortably and provide full coverage. When it comes to care, after each use, rinse it in fresh water to remove salt, sand, or chlorine. Don't wring it out; instead, gently press out the excess water. Hang it to dry in a shaded area to prevent color fading. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach, as they can damage the fabric. With proper care, this bikini bottom will stay in great shape for many beach days to come.
