Is it best to iron out nice slacks yourself or take them to the cleaner to have them steamed?

Answer 1

Myself, I would take them to the cleaners because I don't iron. It's what they're for.

Answer 2

Steam press is far more gentle to the fabric than iron. It prevents some material from becoming flat and shiny. You might want to be VERY careful with ironing if you are dealing with slacks made from fine material. I only use iron for touch-ups. If you must use iron, other than the crease, flip the garment inside-out and iron. For crease, try ironing over a thin handkerchief.

Answer 3

Steam

Answer 4

It is no expense to do it yourself. Just use a steam iron.

Answer 5

Spray them lightly with a spray bottle of water ,iron them. Place them on a hanger till they are no longer damp. You might also place them in the dryer damp and take them out right away and hang them.Same results.

Answer 6

If you are a good ironer, than fine. If, you are not like I am, then cleaners. There are $1.85 cleaners in my neighborhood.

Answer 7

You can do it at home, just put something between the iron and your pants. A damp tee-shirt works well!

Answer 8

I think it looks and feels prolly the same if you iron them yourself. hey why pay someone else to do the same job you can?

Answer 9

A monkey can iron better than I can. I just turn out burnt and wrinkled!!!

Answer 10
