THANK YOU! I am recently divorced and at the ripe old age of 42, I find myself having to iron my own shirts for the first time in my life. I had no idea what I was doing but after watching this I am now ironing mine and my 2 sons shirts like a pro!
I really appreciate your efforts to show especially men how to do what they call "a simple house chore". Do it and tell me if it's simple. Not just the shirts for you, but for everyone else in the house, so imagine how much work it takes to give everybody a nice shirt to go to work every day. Your wife and children must be proud, grateful and love you so much!!!
Thank you! I'm a quilter so my iron is always out but I needed a refresher course on men's shirts. Our youngest has a big job in-person interview tomorrow.
True. Only iron the underside -- the side that nobody actually sees. Wrinkles will get ironed out and your collar will not get shiny. If you want a stiff collar, you can spray a little bit of starch on the underside, THEN iron.
I tried twice and failed (miserably) twice trying to iron a long sleeve shirt... I have more confidence to succeed now that I've seen your video. Simple but thorough. Thank you!
I've ironed my own shirts for almost 50 yrs now, and I've always done it in the reverse order - one side of front, back, other side of front, sleeves, yoke, then collar. I often get compliments on how good my shirts look, so I'm not changing the system.
I learnt something today. Thank you! I never ironed my shirts myself, always paid someone to do it for me. But since it’s that easy I’m gonna do it myself now. The “Yeah” at the end was just so funny. It felt like you were saying, “Start ironing your shirt, it’s easy, you lazy ***”
thank you! good quality training, calm and efficient! and here I was trying to iron them on the reverse side (to protect the material I guess...) - it'll be soooooo much easier your way!!!
You are terrific and express my gratitude that you help us regards from a Greek solo man who's mum used to helping with that stuff but not any more! You are cool man thanks a lot!
Thank you sir. My father asked me to do his and I had no idea how. So I looked for a video tutorial that was easy, and thus found your Video . Thank you
Thank you for this video, just a moment ago I tried ironing a long sleeved shirt for the first time and it went badly (lucky I didn't burn any of them).
I had like 20 shirts of my hubby who wanted it to be given to a dry cleaner bt after watchin this video im like I can do it!! It looks really easy,,, thx for all the tips for collar and seam specially,, I guess thats where most people go wrong,,, wish me luck,,
I was looking for videos like this because my brother doesn't even bother doing it because he is too lazy as always. He doesn't practice what he preach and always me who do the work. So I decided to go to youtube for help and I found your video.
Thank you very much this worked very well for a likes of me as a bachelor. First shirt taken me 30 mins, then second 10mins last taken me only a couple of minutes...now I am going to progress my learning to trousers next.
If you start to see little smudges as you iron, most likely it's a burn you're seeing which means you got your iron too hot! Turn it down a notch or more. Don't let the iron sit still on anything! Always keep that iron moving when ironing!
i hang to dry too - one thing I recommend is to button the TOP button and let it dry - it seems to prevent having a perma-floppy-collar.. unless thats your style. I like my collar to be crisp, like it came from the dry cleaners
Thank you so much! I wanted to learn through the internet because mom always says "lEaRn hOw tO irOn" without teaching me anything like wtf what if I burn my clothes
