Back-to-School Buzz: Hair Straighteners Become the Unexpected Tool for Uniform Labels
New Back-to-School Trend: Parents Turn to Hair Straighteners for Uniform Labels A recent online video has sparked a lively debate among parents as a "mum hack" involving hair straighteners for school uniform labeling gains traction. The video, uploaded by Georgie Dekker, demonstrates how to efficiently iron name labels onto children's jumpers using hair straighteners, typically used for hair extensions. The method, shared widely across social media, aims to simplify the often-tedious task of preparing school uniforms. One parent commented, "Saw this now right before I'm about to get the iron out to do my sons uniform lol thank you😂," highlighting the immediate appeal of the time-saving technique. Another echoed this sentiment, stating, "so glad I seen this before I put the labels into my kids stuff haha cant be arsed with that iron." However, the hack has also met with skepticism regarding its long-term effectiveness. Many parents shared experiences of labels being removed or uniforms going missing despite being clearly marked. "Iron them all you want some kids still steal them with labels and the scabby parents send their kids back to school in said stolen jumper 🤣🤦♀️," one user lamented. Another added, "Done it uniform took by someone else, all they need to do cut label." Alternative suggestions from the online community included using personalized label stickers or simply writing names directly onto clothing with a permanent marker. "I just buy personalised label stickers from Hipi, get loads so label everything lol," a parent suggested, while another quipped, "14 years and I just write it on with a pen 😂." The discussion underscores the ongoing challenge parents face in ensuring their children's school items are identifiable and returned.
