Flat laying hair, such as pony and calf hair, is a bit more sturdy and can handle a firmer touch. For larger debris that may be stuck to longer fluffier fur, use a travel size detangling brush to lightly work it out. Do not tug, gently work out the dirt and associated knots. For denser or flat laying hair, a suede brush does wonders to work out larger pieces and light dirt. For light stains, create a light lather with a mild shampoo on a damp cloth and only work it in the direction of the hair. Do not go against the way the hair lays.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; min_height=&#8221;284px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;27px|||||&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;750px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||40px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Storage<\/h3>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;750px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-17px||4px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to storage, patent requires a bit more conscientious care. Preferably, always store patent handbags in a dust bag. When stored for a prolonged period of time pressed up against other items, color transfer is likely to happen. Patent is surprisingly porous and lighter colors will absorb darker colors it is in contact with. Storing in a dust bag not only prevents color transfer, but it also protects the bag from dust, moisture, and light. Prolonged exposure to light can cause significant discoloration and fading that is irreversible.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; min_height=&#8221;284px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;27px|||||&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;750px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||40px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Wear<\/h3>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;750px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-17px||4px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||30px|||&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Finally, when wearing your patent leather handbag, color transfer can be an issue, so be careful when wearing it against dark or color-saturated clothing, such as blue jeans.
