Hosieries can be delicate, with even those in the highest of deniers prone to wear and tear, color fading, and decreasing elasticity. Having said that, proper care for your favorite stockings is not as daunting as it may seem, whether you own knee high hosiery<\/a> or thigh-high ones. So, without further ado, here\u2019s how to properly care for your hosiery: <\/p>\n\n\n\n First things first: you should know how to handle your hosieries right the way. Here are some tips that you need to keep in mind:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before handling your hosiery, make sure you\u2019ve cut your fingernails short to keep any of them from potentially doing any damage to your precious stockings. Do the same for your toenails so that they won\u2019t get in the way every time you wear and take off your hosiery. Make sure to also cut your fingernails and toenails evenly because hosieries can easily snag on jagged or chipped nails. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Believe it or not, the roughness of dry skin<\/a> can damage your hosiery little by little. Indeed, your skin can rub too much on the nylon and eventually pull threads or even cause laddering. To prevent this, moisturize both your hands and legs with the appropriate skin products. This will keep your skin smooth and supple. This way, your hands and feet won\u2019t have rough, uneven spots or calluses that can damage hosieries in the long run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A common mistake women make when handling hosiery is doing so while wearing accessories such as rings. If you do this, you risk having your hosiery catching on said accessory, causing small holes or ripping the fabric. Don\u2019t make the same mistake by always taking off your hand accessories<\/a> every time you handle your hosiery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n There\u2019s an art to putting on your hosiery correctly such that its integrity is preserved for the long term. Here\u2019s the right way of doing things: <\/p>\n\n\n\n For hosieries with waistbands, avoid just yanking at the top if you want to roll them up higher. Instead, roll the hosiery back down to your knees first. Then, slowly start pulling the hosiery back up, making sure that you stretch more of the fabric to get the hosiery where you want it to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There\u2019s also a fine art to taking off your hosiery, and the steps are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\nHandling Your Hosiery<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
