We at The Hat Project are hat lovers and hate to see any good hat get thrown out because of issues like this so here are a few of our tips below to try and get your hats back to an almost new condition!
-
Inspect the hat: Examine the hat closely to identify the areas with wool balls or pills. Make sure to do this in good lighting.
-
Brush the hat: Before using the lint shaver, gently brush the hat's surface with a soft brush to remove any loose pills and surface debris. This helps prepare the hat for more effective pill removal.
-
Use the lint shaver: Turn on the lint shaver and run it over the areas with wool balls or pills. Be gentle and use a light touch to avoid damaging the felt fabric. Move the shaver in a circular or back-and-forth motion.
After that you will need to use a soft brush to give it a clean and reshape if nessesary!
Goodluck!
