Shaggy rugs are the perfect way to bring warmth, texture, and effortless style into your home. Their deep, plush pile creates an inviting feel, making them ideal for cosy living rooms, soft bedroom flooring, or cosy relaxation spaces. Whether you're styling a modern minimalist home, a retro-inspired space, or a Scandi-style retreat, a shaggy rug adds a luxurious touch that enhances any interior.

For a sleek, minimalist look, opt for a black or beige shaggy rug to complement neutral tones and clean lines, creating calming, understated elegance. If you're drawn to retro interiors, a green or pink shaggy rug can introduce a bold pop of colour, adding personality to vintage-inspired decor. Scandinavian homes, known for their cosy textures and neutral palettes, are beautifully complemented by a cream or white shaggy rug, adding warmth to wooden flooring and softening minimalist furniture.

Shaggy rugs work effortlessly in different rooms. In the living room, a large grey or brown shag rug anchors your seating area, creating a cosy focal point that invites relaxation. In the bedroom, a white or beige shaggy rug placed beside the bed adds comfort underfoot. For relaxation spaces such as reading nooks or snug areas, a circle shaggy rug can create a sophisticated yet inviting feel, perfect for unwinding in style.

Available in a range of materials, including luxurious wool and easy-care synthetic fibres, shaggy rugs offer both style and practicality. Wool shaggy rugs provide natural warmth and durability, while polyester options are great for affordable style. No matter your decor, colour scheme, or room size, our collection of shaggy rugs makes it easy to find the perfect finishing touch for your home.

FAQs and Helpful Information

How do you clean a shaggy rug?

To clean a shaggy rug, start by shaking it out or beating it to remove dust. Vacuum gently using a nozzle attachment – do not use the brush roller as the rug may get tangled and damaged. Spot clean stains with a mild detergent and warm water (or baking soda for stubborn stains), blotting rather than scrubbing. For a deeper clean, consider professional rug cleaning or a steam clean. Find out more in our guide on how to clean a fluffy shag rug.

How do you get a shaggy rug fluffy again?

To restore fluffiness, shake out the rug and brush the fibres using a carpet rake or soft-bristled brush. Lightly misting with water and blow-drying on a low setting can also help lift flattened fibres. Regular fluffing prevents matting and keeps the rug looking plush. Find out more in our guide on how to make a shaggy rug fluffy again.

How do you keep a shaggy rug from shedding?

To minimise shedding, vacuum lightly with a handheld attachment rather than a rotating brush. Avoid excessive foot traffic in the first few weeks and trim loose fibres with scissors instead of pulling them. Choosing high-quality materials, like wool or heat-set polypropylene, can also reduce shedding.

How do you take care of a shaggy rug?

Regular maintenance includes vacuuming with a suction-only attachment, shaking it out, and spot-cleaning stains immediately. Rotate the rug occasionally to prevent uneven wear and sun exposure. Deep clean it every six or so months with a professional cleaning service or a gentle steam clean.

Can you put a shaggy rug in the washing machine?

Most shaggy rugs should not be machine-washed, as the long fibres can become tangled or damaged. Check the care label for specific instructions or consider buying a washable rug that is safe to go in the washing machine.

Can vacuuming a shaggy rug damage it?

Yes, using a vacuum with a rotating brush or beater bar can damage the long fibres. Instead, use a nozzle or upholstery attachment with low suction to gently remove dirt without pulling or fraying the fibres.

What materials are shaggy rugs made from, and which is best?

Shaggy rugs are made from materials like wool, polypropylene, polyester, and acrylic. Wool is the most durable and plush, while polypropylene or polyester are budget-friendly and easy to clean.
