Brilio.net - The condition of jacket zippers that are loose is often a problem that many people experience. Dol zippers are often caused by several factors, such as excessive friction, rough use, or poor zipper quality. If you leave it like that, of course the jacket will become less comfortable to wear.

So, to overcome the problem of the zipper, a number of people often choose to take the jacket to the sewing shop. Or there are also those who choose to sew it themselves if the zipper is closed because the link is damaged. So, the new hook can be sewn at the end of the rail or where the zipper head is attached.

But you know what? Actually, there is a simple trick to repair a jacket zipper that is stuck because the link is damaged. This trick was shared by YouTube user Jarot Technique in one of the uploaded videos.

Reported by BrilioFood on Wednesday (15/5), the method used was to rely on kitchen waste, namely plastic straws. So, this plastic straw will be used as a zipper hook so that the metal or zipper head can enter the rail.

To do this, prepare a straw that is thick enough. Then cut a little at the end and split one side (right or left so that the shape is wide like a box). The width can be adjusted according to the length of the hook at the end of the zipper rail.

If so, take the jacket. Then put glue on the broken (loose) end of the rail hook. After that, stick the straw on the end of the rail hook that has been applied with glue. Press it so that it sticks to the front and back sides.

So, so that it doesn't come off easily, you can press the straw with pliers to make it stick even more. After that, the zipper can be reinstalled as usual. As a result, the zipper is tighter and doesn't come off easily.

Tips for caring for bags so they don't get damaged easily.

Taking good care of your bag can help extend its lifespan. Here are some tips for caring for bags so they don't get damaged easily:

1. Use a bag cover.

When not in use, use a bag cover to protect it from dust and dirt.

Store the bag in a dry place protected from moisture. Use filler or paper to maintain its shape.

5. Avoid contact with sharp objects.

Make sure that the bag does not come into contact with sharp objects that could damage its surface.

6. Keep away from chemicals.

Avoid contact with chemicals such as perfume, hairspray, or cleaners that can damage the bag material.

7. Use a zip or button guard.

Make sure the zip or button of the bag is always maintained so it doesn't get damaged.

If possible, use several bags alternately to reduce excessive use of one bag.

9. Make repairs immediately.

If any part is damaged, repair it immediately before the damage gets worse.
