how do you get rid of or prevent *hanger nipples*?

Question

I HATE those hanger nipple things on the shoulders! does anyone know how to prevent them or get rid of them? I dont feel like buying this special hangers either, does anyone know of anything else?

Answer 1

Wrap the ends of a hanger with soft paper (tissue, bathroom, paper towels) or foil, so the paper/foil trails a little past the hanger end, or stuff a little under the shoulders where the hangers poke.

I find a spray on "wrinkle remover" (Downy makes one, but there are others) works very well on many items.

Get one of those "home dry cleaning" kits that work in your dryer (available in supermarkets and other stores), as this will also remove those dents and other wrinkles.

Hope that helps.

Answer 2

Answer 3

Ok , never heard the term "hanger nipples" before. LOL! First, use good hangers. Second, I've had success with putting washcloths over the ends of the hanger. I have to go now. I'm giggling about "hanger nipples."

Answer 4

I use plastic hangers. I don't usually get them with plastic hangers. Or I think they have specific hangers for shirts that are a little wider.

Answer 5

Go to Target and buy some good hangers, just say no to wire hangers! :-)

Answer 6

Try hanging your clothes inside out.

Answer 7

Douse the 'nipples' with water. Not too much. Just dampen them and they'll go away.
