Choosing Between Wash or Dry Cleaning
- Wash and Press: The standard and most economical method for dress shirts. Shirts are machine-washed, pressed while damp, and dried to ensure a sharp finish. Ideal for most shirts and costs around $4.00~9.00/shirt.
- Dry Cleaning: Recommended for delicate or dark-colored shirts to prevent fading and shine. However, it is more expensive and less effective for water-soluble stains like perspiration.
Tips for Home Shirt Care
For those who prefer to wash shirts at home:
- Unbutton all buttons and remove collar stays before washing.
- Pre-treat stains with a detergent or stain remover.
- Use a delicate cycle with cold water for dark shirts to prevent fading.
- Air-dry shirts on hangers to avoid shrinking and minimize ironing.
- Iron while slightly damp for the best results.
