I'm with Kate's answer, only line dry it, don't put it in the dryer.
id personally hand wash it then lay it flat in the sun, make sure you squeeze out unnecessary water/dribble/sweat/whatever lol
you can wash it in the washing machine on gentle and to protect it put it inside a regular oversized pillow case with the end knotted. you can also dry it on low.


if you are sweating through the pillowcase get a pillow protector, its a zippered case that gos over your pillow and its thicker, then net time you just wash that occasionally (you still use pillowcases)
