“Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration”, Thomas Edison.

“Hard work shouldn’t ruin your clothes.”, Jerry Pozniak.

Yellowing underarms are problematic at best. Caused by a chemical reaction between body salts and aluminum in antiperspirants; underarms may yellow, a by-product of your toil.

Crisp white shows off yellow best. If you can call it that.

Washed at home, many reach for the chlorine bleach but this only makes the yellowing more intense (almost a frightening orange in some cases).

Pretreatment with the correct product will solve your yellow issue. Use a detergent that contains enzymes (look for “removes grass stains” on the label) or an oxy-clean product. Wash in hot water.*

This treatment is only for washable garments. If “dry clean only” put into the hands of a professional.

Changing your deodorant may solve the issue “once and for all” without the hassle of washing, soaking and chapped hands.

At my shops our professional products make haste of yellow underarms; including the most delicate of silks and the softest cashmeres.

Underarms yellow? I can help. My shops specialize in stain removal extraordinaire. Bring me your toughest and your yellowest. If we can’t fix them, you don’t pay. All of my work comes with a “Satisfaction Guarantee”.

Thanks for listening.

*Hydrogen Peroxide applied directly to the yellow area will also work in extreme cases. Always TEST a small unexposed area first (that’s what the pros do), peroxide may not be safe on colors.
