How to properly store a fur collar in the summer. How to store fur products

Thus, for a fur coat to have a good summer, it must be clean. Special means will not allow moths to settle in a fur product.

A fur hat is not a knitted cockerel for you, so we will approach its storage with all seriousness. Of course, you don’t need to go to extremes, but there are a number of rules, following which, next season, you will get a beautiful fur hat from the closet, and not a skin of unknown origin and dubious beauty.

So, how to store hats, rules!

Prepare your hat for storage

Talk to her put it in order. Dry, clean from dust and dirt. If you can’t look at the lining without tears, change it. Be sure to remove the stains, because dirty fur is the best delicacy for moths. He eats so that only champing comes from the cupboard. Don't know how to clean fur? Dry cleaning is here to help. It is better to pay once than to burst into tears once from the results of self-cleaning.

Storage conditions

Fur hats just like the Eskimos. They love cold and air, but they do not tolerate heat, the sun and chemicals. Free dark dry space is a paradise for a hat. Batteries, heating elements and even electric lamps are a real hat hell. Fur reacts extremely negatively to such torture. It will definitely lose its luster, and the mezdra will become tough.

Philological moment

See how suddenly your vocabulary has increased by a scary word. mezdra. Directly not an article, but a solid benefit. This is how you live, you live all your life and you can’t even imagine that you are wearing a mezdra on your head. But this is exactly what you are doing, because the mezdra is, in fact, the wrong side of the fur. Roughly speaking, the leather component of the fur hat.

Therefore, when we say that the mezdra will become tough, we mean that the hat will become a stake. A sort of fur helmet. And do we need it? It’s not necessary at all, so we don’t dry the hat on batteries, we don’t torture it with a hairdryer!

Hats also do not like damp rooms very much. The fur will become stiff, and if the hat is white, terrible yellow spots may appear on it. And all why? Because mold fungi love to live in humidity.

By the way, light hats, for obvious reasons, are best stored separately from dark ones!

And in general, any fur loves freedom and space. Therefore, it is not necessary to tamp hats into a clogged closet or stack them in piles. Closed suitcases and boxes are also prohibited, because it is stuffy and there is no air circulation.

Polyethylene is another hat nightmare. Do not store hats in bags and plastic cases! Over time, moisture accumulates in them, and fur and skin are very afraid of water.

So where do you store it?

... an impatient reader will ask us. And there are four options:

· Put the hat in a cardboard box.

· Wrap the hat in paper.

· Wrap the hat in cotton.

· Put the hat in a special cotton breathable bag (not a vacuum bag!).

And you need to put a dense lump of newspapers into the hat cap or use a more civilized method - insert a cardboard ring insert into it. As a last resort - put on a jar.

And do not forget about the moth, which does not hibernate in summer! Tablets "antimol" to help you.

Preparing for the season after storage

Even if your hat was stored in ideal conditions, it still needs to recover a little after a long hibernation.

Comb the fur with a special brush or comb and put the hat in a dark, cool, ventilated area. If the fur is wrinkled, straighten and steam it. In modern dry cleaners, for example, this is done with a steam generator.

If the hat was conceived as lush and fluffy, and after storage it became smooth like a beaver, then just lightly sprinkle it with water, shake it and, voila, the fur will fluff up, as if there was no long summer hibernation.

How to wear a fur hat

Yes, yes, even in this matter there are rules and subtleties.

Temperature

It is advisable to wear a fur hat only at sub-zero temperatures, because any fur loves the cold very much. Plus, it’s very undesirable to sweat in a hat (the mezdra will become tough), so, again, put it on for the season, that is, at a minus. And shoot indoors!

The sun

With the first spring sun, it is better to take off the fur hat. Even if it's still freezing! Because the spring sun literally eats up the color of the fur and all sorts of metamorphoses begin to occur with it (it turns yellow, gray, burns out).

Precipitation

It is ideal to wear a hat in dry weather. But if you are caught in snow or rain, then be sure to dry the fur and then comb it. Never use a hair dryer! Otherwise, the mezdra will become coarse and at the exit you will get a fur helmet, and not a hat.

This concludes the informative educational program about hats. Now you know exactly how to store a fur hat. :) If you follow these simple tips, your hat will thank you very much!

Preparing for storage

On a note: Due to adverse conditions, which are represented by poor ventilation, high humidity and others, the fur may turn yellow or begin to fall out.

After a couple of seasons of storage, it will be possible to detect large bald spots on the surface of the fur product. As a result of this, the fur coat can no longer be worn, as external defects will be evident to others. The owner of the fur product will no longer be a queen, but will look like a circus worker who left the arena a few minutes ago, forgetting to take off her costume.

The pile will be directed in different directions, and in some places it will be completely crumpled. Comb the fur in the direction of the wool. It is best to use a metal comb with sparse teeth for this;
• Fur ventilation. If there is a yard, then hang a fur coat in it for several hours. Make sure that the product is not accessible to pets and the smallest members of the family. They are extremely curious, and expensive furs can easily fall into their field of vision;
• Check pockets. Nothing should be left in them. Usually it is money or cosmetics. Moth pills should be put in pockets. It will be a shame if an insect ruins the most important product in the wardrobe;
• We put it on a hanger. In general, it can be wooden or metal. If there are wrinkles, then get rid of them. Fasten all buttons and hooks. The only thing left to do is to put the fur coat in a case and find a place to store it.
