Ur awesome great video. Subscribed

[@thecomedygamingnetwork261]

I like it, it's pretty much like detailing

[@UFOsAreRealArea51]

A lot of us have real expensive hats. This is a must if we get stains on polyester and cotton blends.

[@gdoucette04]

One little suggestion … ball up a hand towel and put it under the hat while it’s drying. Helps keep the shape and also absorbs some of the water.

[@PredMatic]

That's what I do as well. It works like a charm. When you remove the towel you can feel all of the moisture it extracted from the hat.

[@chrislatella4249]

This comment was more useful than the entirer video.

[@KevinKrueger1]

Thank you for the suggestion, I just did this

[@gjones963]

If it is an unstructured hat, wear it while it is still damp so it forms to your head.

[@alimantado373]

Works on snapback hats , fitted no.

It’s people like you that make this world a better place. I’m glad I found your video. I followed it step by step. My hat had some bad sweat stains but I didn’t pre-treat with a stain remover. My hat is air-drying now. We’ll see how it turns out! Thank you again for the great video!

[@kyaau]

hey just wanted to check in. How did the hat turn out? I'm in the process of washing mine.. but it's a pretty expensive hat and i don't want it ruined lol.

Glad I could help

I must admit, I had my doubts… but this tutorial worked wonders on my white hat! Thank you Andrea! ❤️

Wonderful!

I NEEDED this! my husband always gets his hats dirty and tells me to throw it in the dishwasher and then it gets ruined and he "has" to buy a new one! Lol. Thanks for the tips! Love ya hun!

BULL CRAP ! ! ! I've tried SHAMPOO, DAWN DISH SOAP, OXY CLEAN LIQUID. With a TOOTH BRUSH, SCRUB BRUSH, MY FINGERS. With COLD, WARM and HOT WATER !

[@valleybiitch]

why use the dishwasher and not like... a regular clothes washer

Well, the person above must be your husband

[@ianlawrence1576]

Tried this on my favorite hat. I wear it every time I go to culinary class, so the chef has a heavy emphasis on safety and sanitation. Gotta say this video worked out. My hat’s now free of stains for the moment. Thx

Just ordered a caddy! They are adorable and functional! Love it🤗 Really needed this video also for my hubby's large hat collection. Thank you so much😘

Thanks for the advise. My hat really needs a good cleaning and I love it so I don't want to destroy it. So simple and so easy. Thanks again!

[@zuperzoniko6365]

IKR!! Mine smells like melted nachos! Like bigfoot toe crust man!! Like like letting a sea snail ROT on the shore then asking the wife to gimme some more!! Na mean MANNN???!!! Yeeehaw!

[@Phunatic]

How effective is this method? I tried just soaking it all free clear but that didn’t get the stains out. Might need to invest in oxiclean and try again

[@chrisalertaalpha4291]

I go the simple route, half cup of lukewarm water, couple drops dawn dish soap and the soft yellow side of a dish scrub (not the rough green side). Scrub lightly in circular motion. I make sure not to soak the hat with water, just enough to damp it a bit and get the stains out. Air dry over night, never under the sun and thats that. 👌🏼

[@420crim3]

Just did that and it fucking sucks. You clearly don't have any white hats cause mine has a white patch and when I tried scrubbing lightly in a circular motion on the sweat it just spread dark all around. Now my patch has a huge dark portion. 3/10 wouldn't recomment

[@AndreaJean]

Glad I could help!

[@BreckoniousMaximus]

Thanks for the video Andrea. I wear a hat to work 12+ hours and I usually just throw them in the washing machine; however, we all know how well that works out. I'm going to try your method today.

[@FromCamotoScrubs]

Great video!! I’ve been looking for a way to clean them without damaging my hats!

[@AndreaJean]

Thank you ✨

[@schlenbea]

Thanks for this! I am definately going to be using this method. I did notice that sometimes the hat tag will tell you if it should be washed with warm or cold water. My White hat says "hand wash cold" so just be aware of that.

[@miichaelhickey]

Andrea Jean so I finally tried your ball cap cleaning hack and so far so good. They are drying and really look so much better. I have tried a bunch of your cleaning hacks like the shave cream and the WD-40 for hard water stains. I am a fan for life, thanks

[@shookisalook3832]

Idk if this has been said but I’m a Walmart temporary remodel employee, this is very helpful, I am waiting for my hat and vest to dry, I believe this is the best way to do it tho, starting my weekend washing my work uniform 😂😂 but you have been realy helpful I just got it done and it seems like it’s helped at least 90% of what I need so thank you so much❤️ the cleaning toothbrush seemed to be the best so far!!

[@deonbrown6970]

Just cleaned my sons hats using your method and It works! His hats look brand new thanks for the tip.

[@AndreaJean]

Fantastic!

[@jessefarias1507]

I have a bump cap insert for my hat that I have to wear at certain job sites for work , I used that after cleaning and it kept the shape perfectly !

[@AndreaJean]

Thanks for sharing!

[@Joe3pops]

In the past I used large peach cans that fit the hat near perfect for drying. Lately I use the large plastic Folgers coffee cans as a drying rack/form.

[@Alicia-gx8bu]

Thank you! My Disney trip is coming up and I wanted to take one of my favorite hat! It’s disgusting from gardening this Summer! I’m going to try this!

[@cbarajas52]

I did this method, 5-10 times until the water wasn’t brown anymore… worked great gotta love dawn dish soap & hot water.

[@uni3831]

thanks for this! just saved $30 cleaning my hat instead of buying a new one. now i dont have to look so dirty with sweat stains during baseball practice

[@mahamrampage7239]

Thank you! I have a hat that my past job gave me and will do these methods on it 😊

[@ladygodiva9294]

My mom used to use a margarine container or small coffee can to help cap keep its shape while drying, depends on shape of cap /person's head. Just an 'old school' suggestion.

[@samysosa5004]

You can also soak it in soap water for like an hour and then brush the stains. I would also recommend drying it in the sun instead of your home because next time you sweat in it it's gonna smell.

[@iBoss818]

Thanks for the tutorial. The only dish soap I have is Fairy. Is that too strong for hats?

[@DarkTemplar1502]

Thanks, I'm gonna go crazy this weekend cleaning my gym hats :)

[@AndreaJean]

Good luck!

[@stacymcintyre1796]

Laying it out in the sun shouldn't cause any more fading than wearing it in the sun ;-) Thanks for this video, going to do this to my caps today!

You don’t wear a wet hat

[@walrus-splice-renewable]

@@helloimclaudio of course I do because I do daily long runs in a hat

Wow thanks!! I was worried submerging my hat In water would ruin the brim, but I guess not!! Thanks!! Now I'll be able to really wash my favorite hat which I kinda wear to the gym too much😉🤣🤣

[@m.a.b6832]

Thanks for this video, It worked well. One thing though can you clean white or beige hats with this same process?

[@dominikamaziing]

Watching this because I want to clean one of my designer caps and dont want to ruin it (D&G one). Cheers 🙋🏻‍♂️

[@chicagorhtours]

Thanks. My pretty expensive Chicago Black Hawks hat has faded in the mid section (cause of fade, probably sweat and sun). Do you have any recommendations for restoration? Jaye from Chicago

[@MangoCanSing]

So, do you HAVE to apply Shout or Oxy Clean before washing in Dawn soap and warm water? Also, what if I don't have a brush like the green one you used in this video?

[@dshep832]

Thanks for sharing, I’m going to try this!

[@yeetarmyitstimeforgoodtime8958]

Dawn dish soap is awesome also have used it to ean muzzleloader barrel and greasy hands

[@nathanexplosion743]

Dawn is the best soap, fast orange smells good and feels nice but nothing gets grease off of things like dawn.

[@loriannmorgan102]

Won’t completely soaking the hat ruin the bill of the hat? I’ve been trying to do this but the bills keep getting warped . Any tips for that?

[@FerociousSniper]

I've always worn company hats at work to keep my long hair restrained. Where I'm at now, I see a lot of customers, and there is a higher need to maintain a professional appearance. I've never had to wash a hat before, but I will give this a try.

[@Westsyde77]

I also use a sauce pan to keep shape while drying on some hats.

[@RangerGains93]

Trying this right now. Thank you!

[@AlexanderHernandez-ud6wy]

So you don’t recommend to wash the hat in the washing machine? Also, what do you do with a white hat? How do you clean them and what’s the best way to dry them up so that they can keep their shape? And is there anything you can do if you already washed the carpet in a washing machine and they got wrinkle is there anything you can do to bring it back?

[@Brun_up]

Awesome good solution😁I’ll try it

[@clintisdickson9976]

Hi liked your video very much.. One question.. How do you soften the sweat band area around the forehead because I keep having this problem with all my caps. Its very stiff and hurts when I wear my caps/hats.

[@SamWilson-ll3zc]

Your southern accent is cute, thanks for the video.

[@lukelyonsglobalsurge4387]

I've found a Ballon helps keep its shape when drying

[@ruthbolanos1995]

[@tsaadil3176]

Hi, Can i use this method, is there any problem with your hat after few weeks or months, please reply❤, Because my one hat ruined so idon't wanna risk my other hats. If you see this comment please reply🙏. Thank you😊

Nails are on point!

[@lfufyxh9818]

Thank you! My hat got in mud and I wasn’t too sure how to clean it. Thanks girl.

[@TheSkaterboii101]

When drying stuff a towel in the cap to make the shape of it dry as if it was on your head

[@foofmonger]

That's what I was thinking. My main concern is having the hat wrinkle up. Does drying it that way prevent wrinkling? Some of my favorite hats have been ruined that way, and I have some nice ones that I'd love to clean up, but haven't been willing to risk it

[@thewanderingpnut1685]

Would a hair dryer work to dry it out a bit quicker

[@boxcarchildrent.v.8477]

Good question? Probably not 😅

[@ThatsSoGiorgio]

I bought this protective cage thing that holds 1 hat to be throw in the dishwasher (I use my washing machine) and it worked okay but it got crazy one day and damaged the cage as well as the inside of my washing machine so I haven’t been able to wash my hats. My friend told me he cleans it with a brush like this video so I’ll have to try it. I have 20+ hats that need washing and I can’t do with washing 1 hat at a time.

[@hundun5604]

@AndreaJean . I don't have any stain-remover. Is that a problem (to do it without, but with just dish soap)? My hat is very very dirty.

[@kristfur]

If it's real bad, also use vinegar. Do this Dawn soak+brush, rinse, then spray it with vinegar. Let it sit for at least an hour, rinse and repeat if necessary.

[@AndreaJean]

Great idea. ❣️

[@nolanhasty557]

Does this work well with grease and oil , I am a mechanic by trade so my hats get quite filthy lol

[@lovs2build2]

BRILLIANT, thank you so much!

[@whizkid00000]

Biggest thing for me is a hat shrinking or losing its form.

[@thectwins3730]

For the form after you wash it blow a balloon inside the hat and it will keep the form 👍

A few minutes 👍

Thank you

[@MrScooterComputer]

Ball up a towel and put it in the hat enough that it is not stretched. Helps with drying and keeps the shape.

[@BMuscle]

Thank you mama! Appreciate it

[@AndreaJean]

❤️❤️❤️

[@aedanhetling101]

Will this work for fitted hats

[@jackventuras5050]

I got the same result by just throwing my caps in the washing machine and running it on a short 30°C hand wash program with a light amount of non-bleach laundry detergent. Of course before doing this make sure the brim of the cap is plastic and not cardboard as that could be a disaster.

[@LamartheLifter]

What a great channel. You have such a lovely voice!

[@AndreaJean]

You are so kind

[@pepe2827]

Is there a recommendation on what to do if the hat loses its stiffness. Is there some kind of spray or treatment?

[@icedonut2171]

Nopee so best to keep em clean

[@icedonut2171]

If you only have dust on the hat a vacuum will help a lot

[@motorcyclescene]

Starch and/or sizing spray

[@hillbillyroyalty4792]

First of all will Lysol cleaner like the can work? Second of all will any soap work like gain dish soap and can I set it out to dry in the sun since it’s white Third of all great video very helpful

[@zacharybrycerobinson4104]

Does this work on white hats ?

[@williamperri3437]

Why not just use regular detergent over dawn?

[@FeeneyAaron]

Does it have to be dawn dish soap? Can it just be a dish soap from say like trader joes?

[@TheEnvelopeOZ]

Thank you Andrea

[@krisyallowega5487]

Yeah, this will work best with monochromatic hats. Anything with Red, White and Blue such as my Buffalo Bills and NY Giants hats the colors bleed. Even in cold water.
