Mermaid Tail Fabric and Care

Now that you have the responsibility of being a mermaid on your shoulders, you’ll need to make sure that your tail stays in good shape for future use. Luckily, mermaid tail care is actually super easy. Here at Sun Tail Mermaid, we use a swimsuit fabric that is 80% polyester and 20% spandex blend for our tails, making them perfect for swimming in, as well as low maintenance when it comes to caring for them.

• Our beautiful, swimmable mermaid tails can be worn with or without one of our monofins, and are open at the bottom so you can remove or add the monofin easily. Our mermaid tails for toddlers are not available with monofins to ensure they have total freedom of their feet while learning to swim. Once they become older and a bit more comfortable in the water, choosing one of our tail and monofin sets is a great option.
• You can also pull the bottom up for easy walking in any of our mermaid tails.
• Mermaid tails are fun pool toys for experienced swimmers. Do not leave your children unattended at the pool or beach.
• Fabric is swimsuit fabric (80% polyester and 20% spandex) that feels great (super soft) and is lower maintenance than our sparkle tails.
• You can machine wash these tails (unlike our sparkle tails). Wash in cold water, and lay flat to dry or dry on low.
• Avoid high temperatures such as hot tubs, hot springs, or high settings on dryers so your mermaid tail will retain its shape.
• Avoid rough surfaces. Our designer mermaid tails are made from swimming suit material and can still wear out quickly if they are used on rough surfaces. If you are posing on rocks or sitting on the sand, be careful with your tail, as this can cause it to catch a snag or wear out faster.
• Each tail is coated with our special Mer-Shield Coating to offer protection from wear and holes.
• Every tail comes with a 1-year warranty that features free replacements for rips, tears, and breaks.
