Keep your tights looking perfect longer with simple life hacks
How to take care of tights to maintain their integrity for longer? UAportal has selected tips and tricks to help extend their service life.
Powder
To prevent tights from tearing on your fingers, you can apply light baby powder or cornstarch before putting them on. This will help reduce friction between your fingers and the delicate fabric. Another trick is to wear gloves when pulling on tights. By protecting the skin of your hands, you can minimize the risk of catching or tearing your tights.
Hand lotion
Before putting on tights, you should use a lotion to moisturize your hands. Soft, moisturized skin is less likely to catch on the fabric. In addition, checking your nails for rough edges or burrs before picking up your stockings can prevent accidental tears.
Freezer
Tights can be put in the freezer for a few hours before putting them on. This will help make the fibers elastic and make them less prone to tearing.
For extra protection, you can use a silicone finger guard. This simple tool can act as a barrier between your fingers and the fabric, significantly reducing the risk of tears.
