What to Do When White Shirts Are Hard to Wash: 5 Tricks to Make White Clothes Look Brand New

As the temperature drops and the weather turns cooler, many office workers are switching from white short-sleeved shirts to white long-sleeved shirts. A white shirt really is a very useful wardrobe staple; a good shirt can give you a feel of different styles and give you a different kind of charm.

Don't overthink it, Huahua isn't here today to tell everyone a hundred ways to wear a white shirt. Although white shirts are very easy to wear, white is also the color that shows dirt most easily. Any tiny little stain, placed on a white shirt, will be magnified a hundred times, so the cleaning method for white shirts is especially important.

Today Huahua is here to teach everyone a few little methods, so that when your white clothes get dirty you won't panic.

Method One: 84 disinfectant

This trick is the simplest and most direct method. 84 disinfectant has a powerful bleaching function. If your clothes are tough, you can try this trick. But 84 disinfectant is too corrosive, so when using it, be careful not to use it on the whole garment; just use it on the local area. Remember to wear gloves to protect yourself when using it. Otherwise it can easily corrode your hands.

Method Two: Ink

White clothes turn yellow after being worn for a long time, and this is unavoidable. At this time we can cleverly use ink; using ink can also prevent white clothes from turning yellow. Fill a basin with clean cold water, drip a few drops of pure blue ink into it, stir it evenly, then put the rinsed white shirt in, lift it up and down a few times and hang it to dry, and that's it, simple and effective.

Method Three: Lemon juice

Lemons are highly acidic and have a certain bleaching function, so when washing white silk fabrics we can add some lemon juice, and they will come out a bit cleaner than with ordinary washing. White socks are known for being impossible to wash clean. In this case, you can add a little lemon to hot water, soak the white socks in it for about ten minutes, then wash them, and they are guaranteed to be cleaner.

Method Four: Rice water

Everyone knows that fermented rice water can be used to water flowers and make them grow more beautiful, but did you know it can actually be used to wash clothes too? Normally you can use rice water to wash white clothes. This method can keep white shirts from turning yellow so easily.

Method Five: Hydrogen peroxide

The most fundamental reason white clothes turn yellow is: sweating. We people often sweat, and once we sweat, white clothes become more and more yellow. At this time it is best not to wash them with hot water; it is best to wash them with cold water. You can add a little hydrogen peroxide to the water and soak them, and the whitening effect will be better.

Although white clothes are good-looking, keeping them from turning yellow is the real key. These several methods Huahua has taught everyone are all very simple, and you can usually buy the ingredients at a pharmacy or in the kitchen, so they are very easy to do. Have you got all these methods down?
