TikTok hack: Hang clothes on hangers for faster drying
How can you dry laundry quickly and effectively? A tumble dryer may not be the cheapest appliance, and using a typical drying rack is often not the most efficient solution. However, a TikToker has discovered a simple and effective method for speeding up the drying of clothes.
Neat Caroline, a cleaning expert who runs her own TikTok profile, frequently shares tips and tricks on streamlining and enhancing tedious household tasks. In one of her videos, she reveals a method to expedite laundry drying. By incorporating just one additional step into the process, clothes are almost instantly ready to fold.
How to speed up clothes drying
The TikToker observed that placing clothes on the horizontal bars of a drying rack restricts their "breathing" due to close proximity. She suggested instead hanging clothes on hangers, which can then be placed on the hooks of the drying rack. This adjustment enhances air circulation, significantly reducing drying time.
Internet users were thrilled with this straightforward trick. It turned out that some were already familiar with it. "I always watch how my mum does it. She knows best!" one person wrote. Many others highlighted the simplicity and effectiveness of the solution.
Another method for quick drying
In addition to a different technique for hanging laundry, Neat Caroline presented another way to quickly dry laundry. How does it work? Simply lay damp clothes on a towel, roll it up, and then press firmly to allow the towel to absorb the moisture.
Hang the prepared clothes on the dryer—preferably on hangers. You can then be fairly certain that the laundry will dry much quicker than usual.
