How to Get Rid of Pilling on Your Clothes

Pilling is a result of washing your clothes under too harsh of settings, or from your clothes rubbing together, making the clothes have unusual bumps throughout them. There are 2 ways to eliminate pilling and excess fuzz on your clothing:
  1. Use a razor- Use a standard disposable razor to "shave" off the excess pilling on your clothing. Hint- if you use a razor that has been used a couple times, it will be less sharp and wont rip holes in your clothing. Make sure to be gentle with this process if the cloth is thin.
  2. Use a pumice stone- Pumice stones are normally used to remove calluses from the feet and hands, but you can use a new one to remove pilling from your clothes. Its a little harder to use this method, but if you don't want to risk hurting your clothes with the razor, using this is a good alternative.
I hope you found this tip helpful and you use it on your clothing!!
