What gets cigarette smoke out of clothes, shoes, hair, bags?
Well, if you wash thoroughly, that should make you smell fine. If you still think that you can smell it, brush your teeth and gargle with mouthwash. That should get rid of it. You need to make sure that you have a strong smelling shampoo and soap. Use a really nice soapy sent for a spray perfume and wash everything and spritz everything. I have to say if you have been breathing it all night, then most of the problem is your sniffer ;) You are still smelling the fumes due to the nasty fumes that permeated your nose. I have smoked and until I wash my face, brush my teeth and all that including your nose, well nothing smells right.....
Reply:Wash hang things out in fresh air or febreze
Reply:rey not to hang around it....that's what I do....my parents both smoke and some of my friends do and i'm only thirteen....but i just crack a window or go away cause i can't stand that mess....ewwww nasty cigs and smoke...lol.
Reply:THE BEST THING TO USE IS TONIC---,, BY BUMBLE%26amp;BUMBLE IT WORKS ON EVERY THING AND IT SMELLS CLEAN AS OPOSE TO FABREEZE, TEA TREE OIL IS THE ANSWER
Reply:Anything that you can wash shoudl be washed. Everything else just needs to be aired out.





I know I do not smoke either but am ocasionally places where people are.
Reply:shower
Reply:You'll probably just have to wash them. Cigarette smoke always lingers in clothes, but I should think one wash will remove toxins and all.
Reply:You should put the worn items outside to air out. That way the fresh air will flow through the fabrics and remove the odors (if you can't wash the items). Some drug stores also sell a smoke neutalizing spray that is safe to spray on fabrics; if you can't find this at your local drugstore, check online--I know they sell it there!
Reply:just wash
Reply:nothing really


one reason why you shouldnt smoke


and it really smells worse then you smell it
Reply:Febreze, if you can get it where you live. Works great. Don't worry about the toxins, they are already inside you.
Reply:Move to Wales, where smoking in public is now banned. thank god, I've been waiting for this for the past 30 years.
Reply:i have always found that if you cannot wash items to leave them outside for a few hours for fresh air (if the rain lets up) and failing that put something like fabreeze on them, although when i have hand washed things that have been near cigarette smoke i was amazed at how black the water looked just because of the smoke.
Reply:Febreeze and shower
Reply:i would say febreeze it would make it smell fresh,i hate the smell of smoke,thank goodness it gets banned in public places july 1st in uk.
Reply:Hair--Shampoo-rinse w/ vinegar[white or cider]


Every thing else[not clothes-wash those]


In the States,it's called"Fabreze" It's an odor-eliminator,not a masker,in a spray bottle. Pump,not aerosol.
