[@TonyFisherPuzzles]

There's two things you are doing wrong. 1. Don't twist clothes when you wringing them out, it stretches them. Squeeze don't twist. 2. What's the point of filling the sink with clean water and soaking them again? That removes most soap but not all. Use an unplugged sink and keep the tap running. Then one by one rinse and squeeze the clothes repeatedly until no more soap comes out. A further tip, use hair dryer carefully to help dry clothes.

Can't because we have a washing machine but the manager said we can't us it because there was a water leakage coming from the bathroom; plumbing here sucks and you can't call a plumber btw. They don't fix anything here; the refrigerator motor is dying (can't wait to leave here). The washing machine here (their machine) in this house costs you almost to $10 bucks a wash and another $7.50 for drying them. So I have a helluva perfect reason for hand washing and air drying my clothes.

Really great tips here. I don't have a washing machine, mainly due to expense, so was looking for a way to wash my jeans, towels, socks etc as cheaply as possible. This method cuts out a number of things - expense in buying a washing machine, expense in buying detergents [as you could just use soap, shower gel as long as it smells nice] and you would also be saving on your energy bills in your home too.

[@NotSoCrazyNinja]

I've found that a fan directed at hanging clothes will dry them faster than just hanging them. You may or may not have access to a fan, but if you do, it can help. The fastest I have dried clothes just hanging inside with a fan was about an hour. Of course, it depends on the fabric and how much water you can get out of it before hanging. If traveling by car, it's not hard to toss in a small high-velocity fan.

[@amaan06]

I dried a shirt of mine under 25 minutes by hanging it infront of a fan, it took this less maybe bcz I've a pretty big stand fan and I live in warmer climate.

Keep your knees dry. Stand on the towel. Weight and pressure gets clothes squeezed more effectively and you'd be drier in the process. Highly recommend investing in a super large beach towel. I've got a 5’x5’ one that's a few decades old have had since the military. I fold it to be two foot wide. The towel being folded comes in handy with items that are more difficult to squeeze by hand. Depending on the item for me determines how I fold or roll towel. Great tutorial reminder here. Thank you. My washing machine just tanked today. Not getting another one before work is finished on the house. So, back to hand washing. A couple of other things that help me, I found an antique roller for a bucket mop. Cleaned it up and now use for rolling water out of clothes $25 at a Salvation Army find, compared to almost $200 for a laundry roller brand new. Also, 5 gallon bucket and a $25 hand washing laundry wand from Amazon gives the clothes a good scrub similar to a washer. Exercise isn't bad either 😁 For all you Covid folks, for under $30 you have an instant washer to handle more clothes at once. For a few dollars more put holes in another bucket, one inside the other. Once laundry is done, pull the bucket out and the water drains. Do this in the bathtub. Put the bucket without the holes into the laundry bucket. Step inside to drain all the water out. Then, use the towel method to squeeze the item or use the roller or both. For stains, you can get a washboard to help scrub. Hope this helps

[@joshchildree894]

A quick way of drying is to hang your clothes in the bathroom and plug in a space heater. Be sure to shut doors and windows to keep the heat from excaping I had to do this when my dryer went out. It works really well when you need to dry clothes.

[@helenarichard]

I do this. I hang a white towel over my towel rack and lay my delicates over them. The rack is above a space heater so it brings the warm air right into the fabric. It is dry in 30 minutes.

When I travel and sleep in my van I wash my clothes while I shower every time letting the soapy (body wash) water collect and using my feet to agitate them . I then do a rinse and I dry them on the roof of van while I drive. I do this in hotels, gyms and even an off-grid property where I shower with a 5 gallon home depot bucket while shallow well water that was warmed by the sun. I keep all my clothes in a giant duffle bag I use as a back rest for a couch I have in the back. I've gone for weeks like this and it just becomes routine.

Heres a tip to all who wanna dry hand-washed clothes faster. Get a salad spinner and place wrung out clothing inside and spin all excess water out. Will only be able to do one or two smaller piece at a time and some may not fit, just depends. Then, hang on hangers and dry. You could dry even quicker with a strategically placed fan or place a drying rack near a heat duct. When I had a job that was an hour or so away, I placed my damp clothing on hangers and hung them in the back of my minivan with all the windows open. By the time I got to work everything was dry. When I got home all I had to do was taken them in side and hang up. No reason to waste energy on a dryer with the great outdoors to help you out.

[@cenafayeartstyl2284]

[@GoStraightToGulag]

I use to do this when I lived on my own because laundry was $10/load. Here was my method. Two storage bins of the exact same size. One that I drilled 1/2 in holes throughout. Fill the non drilled bin with water and soap in the tub or shower. Throw your clothes in. How you scrub is up to you. I would use a clean sock to scrub sensitive areas like underarms and underwear, as well as any stains. You can also just rub the material on each other. Let them sit for 20 minutes and then give it a quick agitation with your hand or a utensil. Then I'd rinse everything and take it outside to my balcony or deck. Transfer everything to the drilled bin. And put the non drilled bin on top. Now either push or step inside the bin to squeeze all the water out. Repeat this process a couple times. Youll have to move the clothes around to get all the excess water out. I'd also ring out the clothes before transfering them to the bin. Then I'd just hang them over my deck or balcony. Secured in place with magnets (metal balcony rail). 🤷‍♀️ My landlord was an absolute ass asking $10/load and I didn't have a car to get to the only laundry mat in town at the time. Yeah it's a bit more hands on but on a hot day - I could have 4 loads of laundry done in as little as 2 hours including dry time. I now have a house with laundry machines and I sometimes still use this method to save hydro and turning on the air conditioner.

I use a plastic Cuisinart salad spinner (green and white one)for small items to spin. I spin one direction and drain and then the other direction and drain! They dry quicker!

I did this before looking it up on KZbin. Glad I did it properly lmao: been trapped in a hotel for a month because of corona

Hang in there man! Things will get better.

When travelling this is really helpful. I find that the sinks in unknown places creep me out a bit so I got one of those frabric pails. It's folds up tiny but can hold about 20L of water. I can use that instead of a sink. And also there are some laundry sheets that can be used instead of liquid detergent. So in theory I can travel with less clothes and wont have to depend on any laundry services...

I'm going to Costa Rica in a few days and this is going to save me from having to wear sports bras instead of my (only 2) binders for most days (I'll be out of town for like 2 weeks). I'm still bringing the sports bras in case I need them for safety reasons but yay for relieving gender dysphoria :)

[@GandalftheWise]

Tell me more about your bras!

I was searching online for this tutorial. This specific title and this specific thumbnail is exactly what I'm looking for.

I've tried a number of methods and I think this is the best. Here are some things I tried that didn't work out too well; Using the bathtub. Initially this seems like a good idea because it's big enough to fit a lot of clothes. The problem is that it requires a lot of water to cover all the clothes, takes a long time to fill adequately and you have to constantly bend over to work with the clothes, which will tire you out quickly. You actually don't need all that much water. Even larger things can compress down into the sink with no problem. I tried using a commercial mop bucket with a wringer basket to dry the clothes. This does not work all that well. you can wring more water out with your hands. I've seen other systems that try to press the water out and I think they are all probably inadequate.

You can do it put your back into it

Anyone here in 2023 cuz they don’t wanna spend money

[@dailydoseofchaoslol]

Nah I used to do this as kid because my parents would not do laundry that often and I did not feel comfortable wearing the same clothes for more than 2 days When I was around 10 I started doing my own laundry actually using a washing machine every friday or wheneven I needed it, I did so for another 10 years… Found a partner and their mother minds my clothes in the washer despite paying ass high rent lol (she said that laundry was part of the rent) I don’t have acces to a washing machine so I’m studying at uni, so can’t get my own washer either

[@pedritx]

@@dailydoseofchaoslol awesome!

Lost my family home of 50 years last May after catastrophic flooding. Had to move into a nightmare apartment on a whim. Water is free here in my county for rentals but our laundry room costs $4 a load. It's an absolute JOKE and these people are scammers. I used to do laundry every single day, multiple loads, and not have to worry about dealing with other people or paying an arm and a leg for it. I've hand washed plenty of times before but just wanted to watch this to feel a little better about my life by watching someone else do this. Hate how long it takes to dry thicker clothes but I'm going to do some hand washing after this. Thank you!

[@1996nancydrew]

I’m here because I’m afraid to go outside because of Coronavirus and I’m out of clean underpants. 😐

[@haitolawrence5986]

Don't be afraid of the outdoors. Practice social distancing and you'll be fine. 😎 Meanwhile this is a great way to clean your underpants! 😉

I have been hand washing clothes for 40 years. This is NOT how to hand wash clothes. With synthetic fabrics (like the men's undergarments used as an example), they should be washed separately, because they will be covered in trace amounts of urine, , and perspiration, and other organic stains that can be broken down with an enzyme cleanser, and hydrogen peroxide, and if washed together with other clothes, that organic matter (urine, feces, etc.) can implant in the fabrics of other clothes. Washing separately is just basic hygiene. Undergarments should be: 1.) PREWASHED with running water, and detergent applied in small amounts (or diluted) on the surface, to remove surface stains, and loosen embedded soil molecules. 2.) Stains or heavily soiled areas such as the groin, should be STAIN - TREATED when the fabric is wet, and more likely to absorb the detergent, enzyme cleaner, or stain treatment. stain treatment can be done gently (with the friction of the tip of a finger, as an example), placed between gloved knuckles, and "scrubbed", or brushed with a soft - bristle brush, similar to a used toothbrush. (Don't use a used toothbrush, but a dedicated, and new clothes brush, made with natural bristles for gentleness, or synthetic bristles for effectiveness.) 3.) Rinse the stain treatment out. The undergarment should be WASHED and AGITATED thoroughly in water that has been diluted with detergent for 1 - 10 minutes; that is "stir the pot", or move the water about manually. 4.) The item should be RINSED under running water, as simply leaving the items in the sink, and adding fresh water does not remove the small amounts of dirt and other matter that have sunk to the bottom of the sink. 5.) SOAK / RINSE the item in fabric conditioner for 1 - 3 minutes, or if you prefer distilled water, or tap water mixed with a small amount of saline solution. (Salt softens water, and fabrics, but don't use too much or the opposite effect will occur.) Some use a tiny amount of coconut oil diluted with water, but I've never tried this. 6.) WRING - DRY only hearty fabrics, or when in a rush. You may wish to use a water extractor if you are near a modern swimming pool, that commonly has this device. Otherwise, gently place item over an area that it can drip into (item over a showerhead, dripping into a bathtub) for 5 minutes, then gently squeeze out excess water from the ends. Treat delicate fabrics as you would long hair. Gently. 7.) Squeeze out excess water in a bedsheet, instead of a towel, if you are concerned with fabric friction. Let dry flat for delicate fabrics, or hang dry for normal fabrics. Use a dehumidifier in a laundry room, along with a garment rack as an alternative to a drying machine, or to dry up winter or wet items that either cannot be washed easily. *I like Perwool, which is made in Germany from the Persil Company (differs from Persil that is made domestically, and sold at big - box stores) for delicates. I tend to avoid solid soaps, which I find can leave a reside. Practice at home, and soon you will be dry - cleaning items less, and wearing your beautiful clothes for years to come. Good Luck!

AriannaAyers what is this saline solution you speak of? Could I make my own with epsom salt?

[@henekki2024]

Nerd fuck.

[@msbanji4963]

AriannaAyers Jesus wtf did i stumble into? That is not how to handwash clothes..... if i did this my African mom would give me a whack on my bum! You need to agitate the clothes to get rid of the grime. And why do it on the sink, ever heard of a bucket? Anywho, we Africans have been handwashing our clothes since we were little. It's part of our training even when the machine is available....From Nairobi, Kenya

[@moncyn1]

4:25 "Roll like burrito, cigarette or joint" that's really a great metaphor in laundry video 🤣

[@Chee.Y4ng]

I live in an apartment and I add my clothes in the washer machine and my clothes are super soaked to the point where I have to squeeze out all of the water and put it into the dryer. Which when my clothes are dryed, they come out stinky and smells sour. Like tf. And they are still wet after drying

[@Chee.Y4ng]

@nikola zazzoslki nvm. It doesnt make my clothes stink no more
