Zipper not closing, clothes pilling? Don't worry about these small issues, Xiaojian will teach you a trick to fix them!
1. Repair zipper
Sometimes the zipper can't open or close, so take a crayon and apply it back and forth on two rows of zipper teeth. The next time you pull it up, it will be very smooth, and candles can also be used.
Dip a cotton swab in Vaseline and apply it back and forth on the teeth to achieve the same effect.
After using a metal zipper for a long time, the
Zipper Head will loosen and the diameter will increase, making it difficult to close. Use tweezers to clamp the tail of the slider, do not apply too much force, as it may break and cause problems.
The pull tab on the slider has fallen off, you can replace it with a paper clip.
What should I do if the zipper on my pants keeps sliding down? Prepare a keychain, put it on the pull tab, and then fasten the keychain onto the button of your pants to prevent it from slipping down again.
2. Clothing pilling
When wearing clothes, excessive friction can cause pilling, which feels uncomfortable to the touch and does not look aesthetically pleasing. Find an artificial shaver and you can easily remove the hairballs. It's simple and easy to operate.
The bath stones used for scrubbing in the bathroom can also take away hairballs, and those without bath stones can use a scrubbing towel instead.
Sandpaper can also be used for this purpose.
The common transparent tape at home can also remove fuzz balls. Take a 10cm wide tape and stick it on the pilling area. Press it down to ensure a firm adhesion, and then peel it off. The fuzz balls will also be gently loosened.
