In the washing machine
This option is perfect for a situation where you need to urgently dry one or two things. After hanging the rest of the laundry on the lines, the items to be dried must be returned to the drum - and the drying function must be turned on. The main thing is not to overdo it with the temperature. It is optimal to select the front sight mode, based on the characteristics of the fabric. If, after such a procedure, things are slightly damp, they can always be dried with an iron.
But what if the washing machine does not have a drying function? Everything is fixable! You can simply put a couple - three thick terry towels together with wet things in the drum - and turn on the most intensive spinning.
The towels will soak up the water from the outfits - and it will just get a little damp. After "drying" the item can be ironed with a hot iron - this will evaporate the remaining moisture. The clothes will dry completely in about thirty minutes.
How to dry clothes quickly
There are ways to speed up the drying process several times.
The only thing is to pay attention to the material from which the product is made and not to overdo it with the heat source.
Using the oven
It is necessary to turn on the oven, the chair is not too close, on the back of which there is a load of laundry. The oven door must be opened. It will take from thirty minutes to an hour. During this time, you need to turn the product over several times for better moisture evaporation.
It needs to be warmed up to 200 ° C and the door open. Put a chair nearby, hang clothes.
This drying method is acceptable if the household appliance is clean and free of grease and carbon deposits. Otherwise, the material will absorb the smells of meat or baked goods.
The oven must be washed, otherwise the clothes will smell of food.
Hair dryer
This method is suitable for things made of synthetics, wool. You can hang clothes on a chair or use a hanger. The hair dryer should be directed at a distance of half a meter from the product. With a stream of hot air, you need to blow the thing from all sides for about half an hour. After completing the manipulation with the hairdryer, let the product cool for five minutes, after which you can put it on.
To dry clothes at home, without damaging the fiber structure, use hot air that comes from a hair dryer.
Such a useful household appliance is ideal for drying socks. To do this, it is enough to pull the hosiery version onto the hub, then turn on the air supply. Seven minutes is enough to completely dry the product.
The procedure takes only a few minutes.
Terry towel
A great method for those who do not yet know how to quickly dry jeans from raw materials. Suitable for sweaters, as well as wardrobe items made of dense fabrics. It is necessary to wrap a damp item in a dry terry towel, squeeze lightly or put under a press. It is advisable to replace the towel with a dry version a couple of times, repeating the steps two or three approaches. If the material remains damp, dry it with a hairdryer.
Textiles dry well outside, in a loggia with an open window.
Battery
In the autumn-winter period, the battery saves. Everything is simple here:
- Cover the surface of the battery with a clean piece of cloth or sheet. This will prevent the thing from possible contamination;
- Wet clothes are laid out on top;
- Drying takes 40 minutes to two hours.
Small wardrobe items are laid out on an electric radiator, shirts, jackets are placed next to it.
Socks, mittens, and a hat dry especially well on a radiator. A heavy knit pullover is undesirable to dry in this way, it will deform from the sections. Also, the thing will dry faster if you periodically turn it over and shake it.
The oil battery significantly accelerates the evaporation of moisture.
Precautionary measures
You should not mindlessly dry the product in the first, at first glance, reasonable way. So you can ruin a thing or household appliances. Here are some guidelines to consider before starting drying:
- In no case should you dry things over the stove and other open sources of fire. First, some items may shrink. Secondly, the fabric is highly flammable, a very small thread can lead to fire. In the best case, the clothes will be damaged, in the worst case, a fire will start.
- Do not dry clothes on heating appliances such as a heater. You can get an electric shock, cause a short circuit, which will ruin both clothing and equipment.
- Also, do not neglect the instructions that are on the label. Thanks to them, you can find out which type of washing and drying is suitable for the fabric. For example, wool, silk and lace cannot be dried directly with an iron, they should only be ironed through gauze.
- A common mistake is to dry your shoes on a radiator. However, this is absolutely impossible to do. Due to this method, the sole is deformed and quickly becomes unusable. Shoes and sneakers need to be washed in a special bag.
- Drying by emergency methods should not be used too often, as this is a great stress on the fabric. The thing can quickly wear out and become unusable.
Terry towels
The easiest way is to wrap damp items tightly in dry terry towels. To do this, the towel is spread on a horizontal surface, clothes are laid out on it and folded into a tight roll. In order for the water to be absorbed faster, it is advised to press the resulting roll with your own weight, that is, sit on it for a while.
The method with towels is considered the most suitable for drying woolen items, jeans, products made of thin and delicate fabrics.
If, after unrolling the roll, it turns out that the terry cloth has become wet, and the thing is still too wet, then you need to take another dry towel and repeat the procedure. An iron or hairdryer can help you dry your clothes.
We bring to your attention a video where a person, using towels and an iron, dries a shirt in 6 minutes.
How not to dry clothes
When trying to dry wet clothes instantly, most make mistakes or do it thoughtlessly. Even if you need to dry urgently and time is running out, you should not do the following:
- Use the electric heater at maximum speed. Clothes will deteriorate due to the high temperature of the appliance. You should also remember about the contact of moisture with electricity, which causes a short circuit;
- Over open fire. It happens that on a trip to nature, things get wet in the rain or in a pond. The idea of drying over a fire is not the best in this case. You can only place your clothes a meter away from the fire source. A similar rule must be followed with gas burners;
- Curling irons, hair straighteners. It is strictly forbidden to dry things using these devices. Devices will ruin fabrics, can leave marks, melt the structure of threads, up to the formation of holes.
If you are outdoors and dry your clothes on a fire, then keep them at least a meter away from the fire.
Other methods and sources of heat are safe. In any case, using this or that device, you need to remember about the features of the material.
Emergency drying does not always have a positive effect on the condition of the fabric. It is advisable to do this in a timely manner. The safest way to dry is naturally in the open air. In windy and sunny weather, you can dry any item in thirty minutes. If suddenly there is a force majeure, you can use a hairdryer or a terry towel.
If the towel gets wet immediately, take the following.
The best place for drying clothes in an apartment will be a balcony or loggia.If they are not there, it is better to use ceiling structures placed in the corridor, in the kitchen or in the bathroom.
Use of household appliances
Every home has devices that are sources of heat. Thanks to them, you can quickly dry wet things.
Washer
Even if the machine does not have a special drying mode, spinning can do most of the work.
In order to dry the desired thing after washing and not spoil it, you should act according to a certain algorithm:
- Place the product in a white pillowcase. It should not be very large so that the clothes do not dangle in it.
- Tie a pillowcase tightly or sew it up to keep it secure.
- Place in the washer and spin for 15 minutes.
If during the spinning process the pillowcase accidentally untied, you need to turn off the machine, otherwise the thing may be deformed under the action of the centrifuge.
Heaters
This option is suitable for drying in winter when central heating is on. Cover the battery with a clean sheet beforehand so that rust does not accidentally get on your clothes. Spread out the wet thing. Drying usually takes over 40 minutes. You can dry gloves, socks, hats on the radiator. Bulky items may deform due to the unevenness of the battery.
Effective use of a fan-type heater. Warm air circulation dries clothes faster.
Warning! When choosing this method of drying things, you need to remember about safety precautions. Do not set too high a temperature and do not hang wet things directly on the device, so as not to cause a fire.
Hair dryer
Large items such as a sweater or jacket cannot be dried quickly with a hair dryer. But this device effectively copes with wet linen, socks, nylon tights. You need to act in the same way as when drying your hair. Direct a stream of hot air over the items until they are dry. Keep the hair dryer at a distance of 50 cm from the product. Blow them from different sides to dry evenly.
Iron
Its use must be very careful. At high temperatures and insufficient humidity, the product can simply ruin, especially if it is made of delicate fabrics. The iron can be used to dry cotton, linen clothes, bed linen.
Turn the garment inside out, lay it out on an ironing board and iron. Hang on a hanger and let cool for 10 minutes. Then iron from the front. Allow to cool again on a hanger. Repeat the procedure if the product is still damp.
Microwave
You can dry small things (socks, underwear, laces) in it. First you need to make sure that there are no metal parts on them. Turn on the microwave oven for 30 seconds at medium power. If the item is not dry, repeat the procedure. You cannot leave the device for a second while it is working in order to be able to turn it off if something does not go according to plan.
How to dry clothes quickly?
You can dry clothes after washing at home using:
- natural conditions;
- household appliances;
- hair dryer;
- iron;
- washing machine.
Emergency drying does not involve the use of fire in an apartment without a balcony or outdoors. It should also be remembered that heaters and other electrical appliances for heating can damage the fabric and cause it to burn. If you put wet things on them, there is a high probability of getting an electric shock. For drying clothes, special fasteners must be installed on the batteries. Frequent emergency drying can cause deterioration of the fabric. Before choosing a drying method and other care, you need to carefully read the information on the label.
Drying outside
In good sunny weather, a maximum of an hour and a half is required for complete drying.
In the summer, the best option is to hang wet linen in an open area, in direct sunlight. In such a situation, it will dry in 60-90 minutes based on the type of material.In winter, wet clothes are sent outside for a short period until they set. Next, you need to bring it into a warm room and it will dry faster. Wind also accelerates the drying process. Therefore, with good ventilation, wet clothes dry out in a few hours. Clothes outside will not dry out in wet weather with rain or snow.
Using household appliances
You can quickly dry clothes in a room using special devices for these purposes. One of the most popular options is an electric dryer, which can be of various designs. It is connected to the mains and heats up to the desired temperature, due to which wet, hung laundry dries much faster.
Using a hair dryer
This is an emergency drying method that should be used very carefully and infrequently. It is used when it is necessary to dry small things (socks, handkerchiefs, panties) within 5 minutes. The sock is put on the base of the appliance and the hairdryer is turned on for a few minutes. Alternatively, the air flow is directed to a wet place if the material is light, loose and slightly damp.
Using an iron
For express drying, a regular iron is often used.
A shirt, dress, or other wet clothing can be ironed dry. The basic rule is that the maximum temperature is not applied. It dries cotton material best. Do not dry delicate fabrics such as silk, satin, organza or nylon in this way. These are highly flammable materials and the iron can cause a hole in your clothes.
Washer
This method requires a special pillowcase or bag for washing clothes, in which the washed and wrung-out clothes are put. The bag is well tied so that clothes do not fly out of it due to the influence of the centrifuge. Then the spin mode is turned on, with a duration of about 15 minutes and, if necessary, repeats. Fabrics that cannot be wrung out (delicate material) cannot be dried this way.
other methods
The heat ventilator can help to urgently and quickly dry a damp thing. In this case, the main rule is to turn on the device at an average heating power and not to bring the fabric too close. Some housewives recommend drying clothes in a heated oven. The appliance is heated to the maximum temperature, turn off and open the door. A dryer or a chair with hanging laundry is placed in front of the oven and left for an hour and a half.
Putting things in the oven or hanging on its door is strictly prohibited by fire safety rules. Small things can be put in the microwave and turned on for half a minute. This will speed up the drying process. Clothes with metal parts cannot be dried like this. It is recommended to dry the jeans by wrapping them in a terry towel and placing them under the press. After the towel has soaked up the water, change it to dry. After 2-3 times, the trousers will dry out.
Correct organization of the drying area
General rule: the drying area should be well ventilated, free from high humidity and foreign odors. Kitchen and bathroom are not the best options for drying clothes if you have a choice.
Small room
For a small room without a balcony, a vertical floor dryer is suitable. It does not take up much space, it can be folded out in half, after drying it can be folded up and put away for storage.
A wind dryer is suitable for a small room
It is important during drying to organize the ventilation of the room by opening windows or vents. For small items, it is convenient to have an additional compact dryer mounted on a radiator, it can also be hung on the door
Detachable battery-mounted dryer saves usable space and speeds up drying of small items
One room apartment
In such a room, there are more opportunities for organizing drying; the ideal option is a tumble dryer or a washing machine with a drying function.They can be placed in the bathroom, kitchen or hallway, if space permits.
A tumble dryer or a washing machine with a drying function is the best option for a small apartment
A simpler and more budgetary option is a liana dryer over the bathroom. The disadvantage of this option is the high humidity in the bathroom and the inability to take a shower while drying the clothes. With such an arrangement, it is advisable to have good exhaust ventilation; keep the door ajar during drying.
Dryer Liana can be placed in the bathroom or on the balcony
An electric or water heated towel rail will help to cope with the problem, small things will quickly dry on it: children's, socks, T-shirts.
The heated towel rail will help dry baby clothes and other small items.
For kitchen towels, it is convenient to have a small pull-out dryer built into the table or cabinet in the kitchen.

Suitable for a studio apartment and dryer options for a small room.
Apartment with loggia
A loggia or even a small glassed-in balcony in the apartment will greatly facilitate the process of drying clothes. A ceiling dryer or a wall dryer installed under the ceiling will not interfere, will not take up much space and can hold a large amount of laundry.
The dryer for the loggia can be wall-mounted
The advantage of drying laundry on the balcony is the ability to organize good ventilation, which will speed up drying of the laundry.
House, cottage, cottage
In a private house, the possibilities are even wider. In summer, there is no better place than fresh air. Stretch ropes outdoors or install a portable umbrella dryer.
For drying outside the city, you can stretch the ropes
For protection from rain, it is better to organize drying under a canopy or on a terrace. In this case, it is convenient to install the ceiling version.
The umbrella dryer does not take up much space and is convenient to use
They can be used in winter, then your linen will smell of frosty freshness without any air conditioners. True, after drying in the frost, the laundry will have to be dried indoors.
If possible, organize a separate room for washing and drying, this will save you from the complexes about the linen exposed for all to see. Such a room must necessarily have good ventilation.
A boiler room, an attic, a bathhouse can also be adapted for drying clothes. The main thing is that the room is dry, clean and well ventilated.
Express methods will help out in emergencies when there is no time to properly dry the laundry. Do not forget that frequent use of them will damage things. Still, the best way to dry is naturally with good air circulation. Consider a place and method for regular drying so that the laundry will delight you with freshness and last a long time.
Conditions for fast drying of clothes
Drying clothes and not only means removing moisture if certain conditions are met. There are only two of them: high temperature and good air circulation. But do not rush to turn on all heating devices and arrange a typhoon in the room, not all fabrics will benefit from such conditions. First of all, it is worth examining the label on the clothes, it will tell you the optimal conditions for a particular type of fabric.
Spin mode to help
The removal of moisture from the laundry begins even during the spin cycle after washing. The better the item is wrung out, the faster it can then be dried.
A good spin will speed up the drying of the laundry
The easiest way to achieve a good spin in the washing machine is just to set the maximum number of revolutions. When hand washing, it all depends on the strength of the hands and the fabric of the product. It is not recommended to twist things made of delicate and woolen fabrics; excess water must be allowed to drain.
Fabric matters
The better the fiber absorbs moisture, the longer it will take to dry. This applies primarily to natural fibers: linen, cotton, wool.Synthetic fabrics dry much faster, moisture does not penetrate into the fiber and evaporates faster.
Drying speed also depends on the thickness and density of the fabric. Thick dense fabrics dry much slower than thin and light fabrics.
Frost and sun
Both contribute to the rapid drying of the laundry in almost the same way. Actually, it is not the frost and the sun themselves that dry out, but high and low temperatures. The same effect can be achieved by turning on the heating devices or the stove.
Drying outdoors is faster than indoors
But due to the temperature alone, it will not be possible to accelerate the drying, good air circulation is also required.
A fresh wind blew
Moisture without air circulation will remain hanging around the linen as a vapor cloud, preventing further evaporation, and therefore drying of the linen. That is why on the street with a light breeze, things dry faster than in the sun, but with complete calm.
Indoors an impromptu "wind" can be organized by opening windows or at least vents. Better not one to create a draft. A fan, air conditioner and extractor hood will also help with this.
Together - closely
Things hung close to each other, bed linen folded in several layers, close-spaced dryer bars will slow down the drying of the clothes. The small distance between the layers of fabric will not allow the air to disperse moisture.
Do not hang things on the dryer tightly to each other, this will slow down drying.
It is advisable to hang bed linen in one fold, if space permits. On the dryer, it can be hung on two adjacent rods so that there is free air access between the canvases.
Drying in a washing machine: advantages and disadvantages
Many modern washing machines are equipped with a drying function. Their clear advantages:
one device performs two functions at once, there is no need to purchase a dryer separately;
eliminates the need to hang out laundry on the street, which is especially important in winter;
protects things from creasing, which simplifies the ironing process;
the design of such washing machines is in no way inferior to their predecessors.
Among the cons are:
- high power consumption;
- the high cost of such equipment;
- drying is only available with a half full drum.
And yet, such a device deserves the close attention of housewives.
Drying in a conventional washing machine
If you are already the proud owner of a washing machine with a drying function, the issue can be considered resolved. But even if your machine does not have such a function, it can still help dry the laundry. So, the procedure is as follows:
- We take the washed, damp thing and wrap it in an ordinary dry light pillowcase, and the product needs to be rolled up well and tied tightly.
- We load it into the machine, you can additionally put a few white towels in the drum.
- We start the "Spin" mode (in this case, you need to take into account the type of fabric).
As a result, excess moisture will go into the pillowcase and towels, and the product will become much drier. It will remain to lightly iron it and it will be possible to use it for its intended purpose.
Fast drying methods
Of course, it's best to wash your clothes in advance so that there is time to dry. However, especially for emergencies, there are several ways that will help dry the item after washing quickly and efficiently. Some of them can do it even in 5 minutes.
Heating battery
This method is suitable if you have a couple of hours in stock.
It will be especially effective if it is a cold season outside, that is, the heating season. Drying a small piece of clothing on hot batteries will take no more than an hour. Cold heaters have no advantage over a clothesline.
Summer alternative to batteries - drying clothes outside or on the balcony. The sun, hot weather and warm wind will do their job. But if it is raining outside, there is no point in this method.
In addition to seasonality, there are several more disadvantages of drying on a battery:
- You won't be able to hang a lot of clothes, especially if you live in an apartment.
- Wool, silk and other delicate fabrics lose their shape if they are hot dried. In addition, white spots appear on light-colored items made of such materials, which cannot be washed off.
- If left to dry for a long time, they will lose their shape.
Iron
The iron does the job well, however, it cannot dry some types of fabrics. Instead of an iron, you can use other devices.
If the iron doesn't hurt things, here's what to do:
- Switch on the mode without steaming.
- Iron the thing until it dries.
- When in contact with the hot soleplate of the iron, moisture will evaporate from the clothes, and it will very quickly become ready to wear.
Hair dryer
This method can be used to dry any small thing: socks, underwear, scarves or light T-shirts, tops. You won't be able to do this with large items, especially those made of dense materials.
However, if you have a couple of hours in stock, you can blow-dry delicate fabrics that cannot be used with other methods.
Oven
An oven will help you quickly dry the necessary clothes. To do this, warm it up well and open the door. Hang clothes to dry near the stove (for example, on a chair). It is recommended to turn the product over periodically so that it dries evenly. Please note that the oven must be clean, otherwise the clothes may smell like food.
Microwave
A very unconventional, however, proven method - to heat things in a microwave oven. As with the oven, the microwave should be cleaned. Several small items or one medium should be put in the oven for half a minute. If the clothes are not dry, put on the same amount.
Washer
Many, especially modern, models have a spinning and drying function. To dry, you just need to send the clothes to the washing machine and turn on the desired mode. For greater efficiency, you can run dry terry towels along with things - they will additionally absorb water.
The disadvantage of this method is that the machine leaves the fabric slightly damp, you will have to dry your clothes with one of the other methods.
Electric dryer or fan
Not so long ago, special electric dryers and fans have appeared that will do all the work for you.
When using an electric dryer, read the instructions.
The fan helps dry things faster by blowing warm air around the room. It can be said to be a great hairdryer.
This technique does its job in about half an hour.
Electrical Drying Precautions
In addition to electric drying, you can quickly dry clothes using a heating radiator. A regular battery is suitable if you need to dry wet pants or a shirt faster, but this method can only be used during the heating season. The rest of the time, oil and other types of radiators come to the rescue. To take full advantage of the method and not spoil your favorite thing, you should follow simple rules.
How to quickly and easily dry clothes on electrical appliances:
- Things should be wrung out as much as possible in the washing machine, by hand, or the remaining moisture should be removed with a terry towel.
- Small wardrobe items - socks, swimming trunks - can be laid out on an electric battery, and large ones - shirts, trousers, jackets - are dried near the heater.
- It is better to hang things on the radiator itself only in one row.
Electric models of modern heating devices are distinguished by safety, the ability to adjust the temperature and help to speed up drying by several hours.
Say no to wet clothes!
A wardrobe is an irreplaceable part of a person's life. No one would argue that after eating, the need for clothing comes to the fore.That is, first a person satisfies his need for food, and only then in buying a new shirt or pants.
Despite our best efforts, we often forget to take care of clean clothes. Perhaps the reason is everyday busyness or ordinary forgetfulness, or perhaps it simply does not have time to dry out.
Washing is not difficult, when there is an automatic washing machine available - it will relieve stains, rinse, and bleach, if necessary. But what about drying? How to quickly dry your clothes when you only have an hour of free time?
And, perhaps, a solution to the question is necessary: how to dry clothes in 5 minutes?
Drying clothes using various household appliances
Fortunately, civilization has provided us with all kinds of household helpers, some of which are quite often used for other purposes:
Washer. A good spin is already half the time, but very often we are afraid to do it with a delicate part of the wardrobe.
In fact, you just need to know how to properly dry clothes after washing in this way:
- take the necessary thing, of course, washed with the correct method, and put it in a pillowcase;
- the size of the latter should not be too large, that is, the thing should be folded several times, forming a lump, and not loosely dangling;
- tie tightly, if necessary, sew up the pillowcase;
- this must be done so that the clothes do not fall out of it under the influence of the centrifuge;
- put it in the washing machine, set the spin mode, after 15 minutes, take out the semi-dry item; if the pillowcase comes untied during washing, you must urgently stop the machine, otherwise you can get one disappointment instead of the desired result.
Heaters not only heat the premises well, but also dry clothes, this is especially true in winter, when centralized heating is not very high-quality and does not do the job well.
If your clothes need to dry faster, a “blower” is the best option, not just a heating device such as a heat fan. The main thing is to make sure that the temperature is not very high.
With regard to battery-type devices, do not hang clothes to dry directly on it! This is fraught not only with a damaged thing, but also with fire! If, nevertheless, you decide to do this, then do not go anywhere. Safety comes first.
Iron. This is the main assistant in looking after the wardrobe of every housewife. But you should use it carefully. Too high a temperature or insufficient humidity will easily turn the item into a wasted rag.
It is good to dry cotton products with an iron: shirts, sundresses, T-shirts, jeans, bed linen. Iron the sheet with the steam off with a hot iron and you will see how it dries right before your eyes. But the same nylon stockings or other things of their silk, satin, nylon and organza are best left to the hair dryer. Don't tempt fate.
Natural drying methods
These methods most often take time, but here everything depends a lot on the season.
If it is damp outside, then it is better to use the above methods.
- The sun, our natural luminary, straightens out wet clothes with a bang, it is enough to hang it up in the summer sun, and in an hour everything will be ready;
- The wind also does the job well. There is nothing better than hanging your laundry outside on a windy, sunny day;
- Frost and sun, wonderful day! Especially in order to start a wash. Oddly enough, but the frosty air also helps the hostesses well. Surely everyone remembers the hardened duvet covers that were frozen on the street? True, this method requires improvement at home, because after such drying, things still remain damp, as after spinning in a washing machine.
Any clothing requires proper and careful care, so it will last longer.
Before you do something, carefully study the label, which indicates the rules of washing, drying, cleaning, as well as the composition of the fabric, and then your favorite dress or comfortable jeans will delight you for a long time.
What not to do
The desire to dry wet things very quickly can cause rash actions. The following three methods are not worth using, even if you are in a hurry.
- Electric heater. High surface temperatures of the appliance can damage clothing. In addition, contact between moisture and electricity can lead to a short circuit.
- Open fire. If you get wet on the hike, skip the idea of drying over a fire. Products must be at least one meter from the fire source. This also applies to gas burners.
- Hair straightener. The appliance can hopelessly ruin things by leaving brown marks or melted fibers on the fabric.
By remembering a couple of ways to dry things quickly, you will feel more confident and will face all these kinds of troubles with honor. But these methods are better left as a last resort, because emergency drying does not have the best effect on the condition of the fabric and can even cause damage to clothes. Therefore, try to wash and dry your items in a timely manner. And when planning an outfit for some important event, think over two options. Thus, you will have a plan "B" in case of force majeure.
The most efficient quick drying options
When starting to process the product, it is necessary to evaluate the arsenal of available accessories, select the safest type of exposure and carry out the manipulation according to the recommendations:
Processing in a washing machine. If the things are simply not completely dry after washing, they must be loaded into the drum again and run through another drying cycle. In this case, we set the maximum temperature for a particular type of fiber. On a slightly damp piece of clothing, all that remains is to walk with an iron.
- Ironing. For this approach, an iron heated to permissible numbers is used, with the steam function turned off. In this way, a fabric jacket, dress, lightweight trousers or blouse can be processed. Iron the damp product on both sides, hang it on a hanger or the back of a chair, wait 10 minutes and process it again with an iron.
- Hair dryer, fan with warm air supply. Ideal for quick drying of wool. We hang a jacket or sweater on a hanger and direct warm air from a distance of at least half a meter. To obtain a very quick result, the product must be processed from all sides, including the inside out. You can dry your denim clothes quickly in the same way.
- Oven. We turn on the oven, while it warms up, keep the clothes on the back of the chair as close to the heat source as possible. Then we spread the product on a dry and clean baking sheet, for fidelity it is even recommended to first degrease it, put it in a cabinet. We keep the door open, otherwise moisture will not come out and the approach will not give any result. If you need to quickly dry a jacket or other bulky product, then it is better to hang it directly on the oven door, covering it to the maximum.
- Microwave. This device will only help if you need to dry small things, for example, socks. We lay them out right on the bottom of the household appliance and run for 30 seconds. If necessary, we make several approaches, but we do not exceed the heating duration.
- A complex approach. It is a suitable solution for quick drying of heavy fabrics such as trousers. Wrap the damp thing in a dry and warm terry towel, make a few squeezing movements, but do not twist it. You can sit on this structure for a few minutes. Then we change the towel to dry and repeat the manipulation. We do this several times until the material is only slightly damp. Then we finish drying it with a hairdryer or iron.
Thanks to the listed methods, it is possible to speed up the drying process of washed or wet items of clothing several times without damaging their texture and shape, without spoiling the original appearance.
