How to safely bleach a blouse at home if it turns gray or yellow?

A white blouse or shirt suits everyone and allows you to look appropriate both in the office and on a date, but always equally harmonious and attractive. But sooner or later, everyone has a problem: how to bleach a white blouse in such a way as to return it to its original color and at the same time not spoil the material? And there are such ways. Moreover, surprisingly, most of the whitening products are at our fingertips, they cost a penny, and the result is always positive.

Modern people are accustomed to the fact that they have a lot of industrial powders and bleaching agents at their service, which (according to advertisements) can instantly return the original whiteness of things at home. There is only one drawback to all these bleaches - not always a democratic price. And if you consider how many white things each of us has in our wardrobe, putting them in order can cost a lot. Therefore, in order to avoid all these accompanying troubles, we conduct an audit of the house. Surely you have something to help you brighten your blouse or T-shirt.

1. The simplest folk way is boiling. Everything is simple here - put white things in an enamel container, fill with water and put on fire. The duration of the process should be no more than half an hour. For greater effect, you can add a little ammonia or "Whiteness" to the water. Yes, effective. Yes, simple. But the smell is just awful. And blouses and T-shirts quickly deteriorate. So we leave boiling for an emergency - if your favorite blouse is gray and you need it urgently, and there is nothing at home suitable for gentle bleaching.
2. The second way is more gentle. You will need a basin, 40-degree water, and hydrogen peroxide - 4 large spoons for every 2 liters of water. Mix all this and put a shirt, T-shirt or other thing in here that you need to bleach. Leave it on for 20 minutes and then wash it normally.
3. For the next option, you will need more ingredients, but the effect of the application is much higher. So, prepare toothpaste (the simplest one - without dyes, flavors and similar additives), salt, baking powder, vinegar. In a bowl or saucepan in which you will bleach things, pour a quarter cup of salt, half of baking powder, squeeze out the paste (the whole tube) and pour two tablespoons of vinegar. If there are old yellow stains on the items, add some soda ash to the container. Then you need to pour water into this mixture and mix everything well. Put white things in here and forget about them for a couple of hours. After the indicated time has elapsed, wring out the clothes and leave to dry. As soon as the clothes are dry, you can send them to be washed in the washing machine as usual.
4. Surprisingly, potassium permanganate can also help to restore whiteness to clothes at home. Just make a weak solution, add some washing powder and hold your blouse or T-shirt in this mixture for 10 minutes. Then you can send it to the washing machine.
5. If you have pure cotton or linen clothes, you can bleach them with ammonia. Add a spoonful of this product to a bowl of water and soak things in the mixture for about ten minutes. Then rinse and send to dry.

1. Synthetic items can be bleached in brine. Take two tablespoons of salt per liter of warm water, stir well and soak your blouses for 20 minutes. After that, be sure to rinse well.
2. You can also try a mixture of table salt and peroxide, if the situation with the color of the clothes has not gone too far. Dilute four tablespoons of salt in a bowl of water, the same amount of hydrogen peroxide, a spoonful of ammonia and a little washing powder. You dissolve everything well and put washed white things here. After 15 minutes, you can take it out, rinse and dry.
3. Ordinary laundry soap is also suitable, if such a rarity is still found in your home. Just rub it all over the blouse or stains and leave it on for half an hour. Then rinse well and you can dry.
4. Helps to whiten things and boric acid. For every two liters of hot water, take two tablespoons of acid and stir. In this solution, a shirt or T-shirt should be left for at least two hours, then rinsed well.
5. One of the easiest ways to bleach clothes is with baking soda. Just when washing, add a couple of tablespoons of this substance to the powder and at the exit you get perfectly white clothes. If the situation is completely disastrous, then you can first soak your clothes in a soda solution.

These easy ways will help you bring back the whiteness of your blouses and shirts. And, what is especially pleasing, all this does not require a lot of money. All the components are either already at home, or you can buy it, spending a minimum of money on it. And the financial issue is an important factor, especially when there are children in the house. White tights, T-shirts, shirts and blouses of students instantly lose their attractive appearance, and you will have to buy large quantities of industrial products. Therefore, it is worth remembering the folk methods of whitening, which will help you save your family budget. Just be sure to observe the dosage and do not keep things in the solution for a long time, otherwise you can irreparably damage the fabric.

Of course, it is always better to prevent things from becoming gray or yellow than to think later. Unfortunately, not everything depends on our caring attitude towards her. Clothes can be affected by poor water, ecology, deodorants and other unfavorable factors. But it is in your power to reduce the likelihood of discoloration, and, as a result, you no longer have to spend time and effort on whitening.

• Use a special powder.
• Wash white clothing separately from other items.
• If you washed colored or black clothes in front of white clothes, you should first run an empty machine with bleach.
• Do not store blouses and T-shirts for a long time in dark rooms without fresh air.
• Try soaking your clothes in cold water before washing, sometimes it helps to preserve the color.

If you are not lazy to follow these rules and treat white things with care, then they will serve you for a long time, preserving their attractiveness and integrity. And you no longer have to puzzle over how to return them to their previous appearance. Moreover, you don't have to spend a lot of money on updating your wardrobe.

Girls, we constantly think about everyday problems and forget about ourselves. Yes, our house is clean, things are cleaned and washed, there is always something to eat.

Here I am looking at Olya Kartunkova from KVN, what a fine fellow she is, she lost 30 kg in a couple of months, and I followed her diet, there are already the first results - 10 kg.
