A small ritual of preservation and presence



Your Aloru sauna hat is crafted from 100% merino wool — a natural fiber known for its softness, breathability, and ability to regulate both temperature and moisture.


It’s designed to support your wellness rituals over time.With minimal care and quiet attention, it will continue to do so — beautifully.


After Each Session: A Simple Reset


Merino wool is naturally self-regulating — it resists odor, dries quickly, and rarely needs washing.


After each sauna use:


✓ Gently shake out to release moisture

✓ Hang in a well-ventilated space

✓ Avoid direct sunlight or intense heat

✓ Let it air-dry, naturally


This small habit keeps your hat fresh, shaped, and ready for next time.

No washing required -just breath and space.


When Washing Becomes Necessary


You don’t need to wash your sauna hat often.Merino is antibacterial by nature.


Only wash if:

  • There's visible dirt

  • A lingering scent develops

  • You’ve used oils or products that leave residue


Overwashing can break down the fibers — less is more.


How to Wash: A Gentle Process


If your sauna hat needs deeper care:


  1. Fill a basin with cool or lukewarm water

  2. Add a few drops of wool-safe, unscented detergent

  3. Let soak for 5–10 minutes — no agitation

  4. Swirl gently; avoid scrubbing, wringing, or twisting

  5. Rinse thoroughly with clean water

  6. Press gently between towels to remove excess moisture

  7. Reshape and lay flat to dry — away from heat or direct sunlight


Do not machine wash, tumble dry, or hang while wet.

The structure of wool is delicate.

Treat it as such.


Using the Cotton Storage Bag


Every Aloru sauna hat comes with a cotton drawstring bag — simple, breathable, and purposeful.


Ways to use it:


For Travel: Keep your hat clean and protected inside your bag or luggage

At Home: Store between sessions in a dry drawer or linen closet

For Transport: Use only when your hat is fully dry — merino needs air to stay fresh


Never store while damp.

Wool holds moisture, and needs space to breathe.


A Care Ritual, Not a Chore


This isn’t just maintenance.

It’s part of your ritual.


Let your hat dry slowly.

Fold it gently.

Store it with care.


The more intentionally you treat it,the more it returns that care —through comfort, longevity, and presencein every session that follows.
