Wrinkles in ponytail scarf

[kabaker]

Hi all, I did a search and I did not find anything pertaining to this question. I have the tattersall silk ponytail scarf and I REALLY want to wear it in my hair but it has wrinkles in it from being on one of my bags...how do I get these wrinkles out?

Check the materials on the scarf, then the suggested settings on an iron to make sure you set it appropriately and then you should be able to iron out the wrinkles. A dry cleaner could do it to, and starch it, but not suggested for starching, and plus it's a cost as opposed to what you can do at home.

perhaps you can toss it in the dryer for a few minutes to loosen out the wrinkles?

I ALWAYS iron my ponytail scarves before putting them on my bags. I just put them on a lower setting, but not too low or the previous creases wont even budge. I've never had a problem.

If you are scared to iron it.. take a towel and put the scarf in the middle and iron the towel

If you have a steamer, that works really well. I think that's what coach uses when they sell the floor model of a scarf/ponytail scarf

I also iron my scarves before using them on my bags. I've yet to have a problem.

I iron mine too.
I use the shot of steam from my iron as well.
If the wrinkle is really embedded, I'll sprtiz the scarf w/ a touch of h20 first.

I use my steamer and it does a great job.

I wouldn't put it in the dryer -- the scarves are silk.

hand held steamers are the safest way to iron out wrinkles on delicate fabrics. Also, they're great to have for a quick touch up on your clothes and they get out wrinkles your iron couldn't. If I was on a desert island, my steamer would be in my life bag lol.

I assume you don't have the 6 foot tall one like I do, then?

no, I have a small hand held one. It takes 30 seconds to heat up and it's easy to store. I bought it at Joann's two years ago.

Yep - or an iron. At my store it was whichever was easier to get to.

For the OP - I wash my scarves in Woolite in the sink and hang to dry, they get so wrinkly! So I just steam or iron them once they're dry. Works like a charm!
