Is It Worth It To Iron Clothes? Let's Find Out!
Life gets busy, and ironing is boring (to some people, we here at Best Perth Laundry Services would disagree!). Is it worth it to iron clothes, or is ironing just something we can skip? Read on to find out…
Ironing Can Help Your Clothes Last Longer
Ironing clothes with good technique can seal the fabric and protect the linings
This can mean that your clothes pick up less debris when you wear them. Debris in clothes can be abrasive and wear out the fabric more quickly than it ordinarily would
Well-ironed clothes can therefore last longer, saving you money in the long run
Ironing Makes Your Clothes Smell Beautiful
Ironed clothes just smell better, especially if you scent them.
People will definitely notice the difference!
Ironing Makes Your Clothes Look Better
This one may sound obvious, but it’s worth emphasising just how much better wrinkle-free clothes look.
If you want to look professional at work or stylish when you go out, well-ironed shirts, dresses and trousers will really help with this.
Never underestimate the power of looking highly presentable. It can create opportunities you never thought possible!
You Kill Germs When You Iron Your Clothes
Washing clothes at high temperatures will kill most bugs. However, not all clothes can be washed at 80-90°C
In addition, thermophilic bacteria and fungi love high temperature, and will easily survive a hot wash. Add in that clothes will pick up germs again when they are dried outside, and you can see why a hot iron could be useful to kill the germs on your clothes
Killing bugs with an iron can help clothes last longer before they start to smell when you wear them.
Additionally, some experts recommend ironing baby clothes, as their immune systems aren’t well developed yet, and reducing the germs on their clothes may help to prevent illnesses
