- My daughters beautiful jacket was messed up when I accidentally put it in the dryer for convenience.
Learned the hard way and had to deal with this fur issue, she did not want to wear the fur part because of this.
Searched online and found many things, all of them had combing in common. So I combed the faux fur hair with brush and comb. Used a bit of argon oil on it for shine, then used a lot of conditioner and put it in the warm water for couple of hours.
Dried the fur combed it again and put argon oil again. It looked much better than before and in usable condition.

Your daughter is lucky to have you. God bless you all
You are such a great mom to go to all of this effort to fix it, the end result looks great!
Thanks for doing this video. I dried my faux fur, I was distracted, and threw it in the dryer. I was so livid; I always take it off before I wash my coat. Anywho, you've given me some hope of bringing it back!! I do need a new coat but I just need it to get through the rest of this winter. (waiting on clearance, hate paying full price) Fingers crossed! Thanks for the detailed video and instruction.
Hi! Do you have any updates?
So...... any luck???
Never put faux fur in the dryer always air dry
Can you give us an update? I did the same thing by mistake. Like you i never put it in the dryer but i simply forgot once. Just wondering if you fixed it???
I I made the same mistake, now it looks like burnt hair. I used my dog's fur brush and it had volume again, but not silky or soft like before. I hate myself for ruining my new jacket 😩
You’re a great mom! Mine washed mine as a favor and ruined it completely 😭 right in the dead of winter at the worst time ever. Now I have to try fixing this on my own. Smh appreciate your diligence but I might have to just toss mine 🥹😭
tysm! i also acxidently put my sisters sweater in the dryer i felt so bad! im so glad i can fix it
Thank you so much for this video it help me so much! When I put my fur from my jacket into the dryer it looks alot better than it did when i took it out! Your video was a lifesaver!!😊
Thank you for the fix my dad put my down jackets fur lined hood in washer and dryer - I will try this
This was so helpful! Thank you so much Tiya Aunty!
You are a great mama💕💕
Very helpful thank you for making a tutorial been trying to wash my fluffy comforter for weeks 😊
You’re welcome 😊
Gonna try this on some faux fur I dyed. I'm gonna update in a day or two.
Update: it worked. It looks like real-ish fur now.
Thanks for the update.
Thank you for taking the time
You can use a high velocity pet dryer to renew faux fur as well.
How do you do that?
It is burnt off and you can cut it off cut it shorter then wash and use fabric softener and use a cat fur metal brush the one that has many needles. Not hair conditioner this is plastic based not human not animal so use a fabric softener. To REPLACE THAT STRIP OF FUR WOULD COST 3DOLLARS OR LESS.
I came to say what you said! Faux fur is usually a synthetic (plastic) fiber. Fabric softener will help with the detangling, but it is essentially melted together from the heat of the dryer.
Do you know where can I replace it?
If you want to replace it contact the brand of your jacket/coat, most likely they have the best replacement if their is any.
You can use a hairdryer and comb to straighten it out also. It's uncontrolled heat that causes these issues
Maybe you could just get some new faux fur at the craft store...you are lucky enough your daughter's is detachable. My son's jackets will never be the same after a dryer trip,and all I could do was try to brush it, since it was attached. You can probably pick up a remnant cheaply.
Thx!
waooo good job 👍👍👍👍
Ahh thank you so much this helps
I’m going through this now and after combing I soaked the fur in liquid fabric softener over night. I’m washing it in cold water now. 🤞I hope it works and will add the oil you suggested after.
I hope it works for you. Best of luck.
How did it go?
@@RedWingsninetyone It went okay. I brushed and oiled but it still looked a bit funny, so I used clippers and shaved off the very ends that were singed off. Then brushed and oiled again and worked well. It’s just now the fur is shorter but the kids don’t mind because it’s much softer. Thanks!
i would try coconut oil and argon oil
I did this for my old stuffed animal and instead of bad hair, dust came off
Can this work with a faux fur Pom Pom? I tried combing it out, but it didn’t make it better.
I think it should.
Pom poms have fur all around it so it might take a lot of work to see some results. My suggestion is to use appropriate size of comb for the thickness of it, if the fur is thin use a thin comb with tight space. If it has thick fur use a comb with bigger space gab in between. I hope it helps and works for you.
@@tiyah101 I’m using a comb that is sorta thing, but not really.
Try ironing it or using a a hair straightener makes it shiny and smooth
I will surely try. Thanks!!
don’t straighten synthetic hair it will melt an burn blow dry it on low
@@sarahroselibrandi152 I have not tried it yet , good to know all the details regarding their care since I obviously don't do this a lot.
Thanks for the info.
These are *dry clean only.*
Yes, they are!! But sometimes you just do stuff in a hurry to get it done which obviously you regret afterwards. 🥺
You can wash them, but not in hot water and don't put it in the dryer. Many dry clean only articles can be washed, but with care.
I feel better now that I'm with 83,000 other idiots who threw their coats in the dryer . Thanks guys
