Keep clothes looking newer longer

We all know one of them

We all know one of them. The people who seem to never buy new clothes and yet their clothes look brand new as if they just emerged from a shopping spree. How do they do it? Well, there are a few tips to taking care of your clothes so that they will last longer and stay looking new longer. Here they are: 1. Use stain removers on armpits and other sweat prone areas such as the neckline, collar, wrists, etc. By putting stain remover on that area you will prevent the fabric from losing color or getting that yellowed stain that happens when sweat becomes stuck in the fabric and chemically changes the fabric properties. 2. Zip up those zippers. By taking the time to zip up the zippers and button the buttons on your clothes prior to washing them you will keep them and your other clothes looking newer longer. In the agitation cycle in the washer and the tumble of the dryer the zipper can act like a knife towards the rest of the clothes in the wash causing holes and distressing the fabrics. By zipping it up you can prevent this unnecessary wear and tear on your clothes. 3. Beware of finishes. Just because the garment tag says it is made from 100% cotton doesnt mean it is OK to turn the heat up on the iron. Sometimes fabrics have a finish on them to give the fabric a new property such as being wrinkle resistant. By reading the label you can be sure that you are using the right wash, dry and iron settings for that particular fabric. 4. Wash clothes based on fabric type not colors. Unless you think that a particular fabric may bleed onto others (ex. New denim, red, etc.) it is best to wash garments of similar fabric type together than it is to sort them by color. Fabrics of the same property will have similar washing requirements. So it makes more sense to wash clothes based on fabric type than it does by colors. The colors of your clothes dont have anything to do with how they should be washed. 5. Read the label. When all else fails, read the label put in by the manufacturer. It will ensure the best conditions for that particular garment and will keep it looking newer, longer. With these 5 easy little tips you too can be the envy of new looking clothes all the time. Which should help your pocketbook a little.
