Style Hack 4: Straighten those collar tips

Very often if you try and straighten the collar tips using a normal iron the tips develop iron marks due to excess fabric inside. Hack it by borrowing your girl’s hair straightener and briefly press it at the tips. Using ‘Collar Stays’ is a good idea too!

Style Hack 5: Stuck Zipper

A problem with metal zippers mostly and when its not YKK!  They get stuck in humid weather or if detergent gets stuck in its teeth or with time. Use a black graphite pencil or a candle and rub it in the zipper teeth. Both graphite and wax act as lubricants and ease the slider movement. Never get stuck again!

Style Hack 7: Lint free clothes

Accumulation of lint is a common problem with cotton and woollen clothes. Two quick hacks to save you from all that unwanted pilling.

Hack 1: Wrap clear tape inside out on 3 or 4  fingers of your hand and rub it in the affected areas. The lint will stick to the tape and your suit / garments appears new.

Hack 2: For denims and strong fabrics take a used single use razor and with a light hand shave off the lint by moving the razor in a single direction. Never use on velvets and pile fabrics as it may spoil the cloth permanently.

Style Hack 8: Un-shrink your most loved T-shirt

Before you give up on your favourite t-shirt coz it went small on its first wash give this hack a try. Soak the t-shirt in hot water and some hair conditioner for a few minutes. Take out, stretch back to its original size and dry flat. (Tip: trace the t-shirt on a sheet of newspaper and spread out for drying  stretching it beyond the drawn outlines).  It will get back to size:-)

  1. That zipper one you got actually looked pretty interesting. I bought a nice jacket from American Eagle and the problem with it was actually the zipper. Like the jacket was super nice and looked like awesome streetwear but the zipper would not even function and i didn’t realize it until months after i had bought it and the zipper would not even work. i have to try what you said about the graphite/candle wax.
