Fashion & Accessories | | | The tag on one of my shirts says that i'm not supposed to iron it. is there any other way that i can iron it without actually ironing it?!?!
| | A. | If the shirt says you can tumble dry it, go ahead and pop it in the dryer for about 10 minutes, as soon as the time is up hang it in a hanger, if not going to wear it rite away try to hang it with out as many wrinkles as possible. If this is not the case then u can either use a professional steamer which i doubt u have one, or u can hang it on the bathroom while you take a shower, the steam from the shower will ease up the wrinkles. | | | |

| Q. | What is the pros and cons of traditional ironing vs steam ironing? | Related Search:
Cleaning & Laundry | | | We have a regular clothes iron (it does have steam option), but it's a pain to get out the ironing board. I'm considering getting one of those steam irons where you hang your clothes on a hook and steam them with steam coming out a hose kind of like a vaccum appliance. I've seen them use them in retail stores, but do they really work as well as traditional ironing on a flat surface?
| | A. | No.
I worked in a retail clothing store for 5 years, and have probably steamed hundreds of clothes. While they are great for lifting out wrinkles ~ that's ALL they do. With a steamer, you can't create a crease in shirts sleeves or slacks, you can't do a nice press on the collar, nor does the garment hang very nice when finished. Pressing with an iron gives a garment shape which a steamer can't do.
The positive is that it is a great way to get wrinkles out of suit jackets and winter coats.
Another negative, is that most steamers take about 10 minutes to warm up, and about 5-10 minutes to use. A traditional iron is much faster, especially if you do all your ironing on one day of the week.
Still another negative, is that to use the steamer properly, you have to place the nozzle inside the garment so the steam goes outward, facing you. We used to try other configurations, but this one seemed to work the best since it slightly stretched the garment, which is necessary to lift the wrinkles. The downside side however, is that the steam is facing in your direction, leaving you with limp hair and a sweaty face.

| Q. | How do you stop creases forming when ironing shirt sleeves? | Related Search:
Cleaning & Laundry | | | I have the most frustrating time ironing business shirts. Often when I iron the sleeve, I turn it around only to find that I've ironed a crease in the other side. I then iron that crease out and I make a crease on the first side.
| | A. | slip a piece of cardboard between the two layers of the shirt sleeve. Thin cardboard like the type that comes in a men's packaged shirt works very well. When you iron the top layer of the sleeve, the cardborad prevents the under layer from creasing. Then flip and do the other side. once smooth you can remove the cardboard and iron as normal.
I spent 26 years in military and I used this process always. My creases on top were always razor-sharp and sleeves wrinkle-free. | | | |
