How
to Prevent and Remove Wrinkles on a Tie
One
important thing that should be learned by all of us is how to deal
with wrinkles on a tie. A tie with wrinkles looks worn. Wearing such
a tie will damage your image as a professional.
Preventing
Wrinkles to Appear on a Tie
Prevention
is better than cure. You should try your best effort to prevent
wrinkles instead of removing a wrinkle when you find one. Here are
some tips and tricks that can help you prevent wrinkles to appear on
a tie:
Do
not tie the knot too tight. Remember
to untie your tie after used. If not, permanent wrinkles will be
created. (Unfortunately many people do not follow this rule. They
never untie a tie. They just pull down the knot from the collar to a
position to take their head out. On the next day, they put the tie
back on their neck and move the knot up to the collar.) If
you are on travel, roll up your ties and do not let things in the
suitcase squeeze the ties too much. Consider buying a tie case.
Removing
Wrinkles on a Tie
Even
if you follow all the tips and tricks above, still there will be some
slight wrinkles on your tie after used. Here are some tips and tricks
that may help you remove wrinkles on your tie:
Hang
up the tie for a period of time and most slight wrinkles will
disappear. If
that doesn't work, roll up the tie and flatten the wrinkles during
the process. Then put the rolled tie on a flat surface (e.g. table)
for a period of time. After that hang it up for some more time and
you will find that the wrinkles are gone.
If
you follow the above tips and tricks but the wrinkles are still
there, you may consider ironing the tie. More information can be
found in the article "Tips on
Ironing a Tie".
