Hello dear community Quick question: I have a white jacket that's 67% polyester, 31% wool, and 2% polyacrylic. Since it's a little too big for me, I'd actually wash it a little smaller at 60 degrees.

I want to get braids and ordered a cheap durag. When it arrived, I realized it's made of polyester, not silk or anything. Is that bad? There are probably much better materials out there, but since this one was so cheap, that would be good. But if polyester can cause any kind of long-lasting damage…

Hello, I have a zipper that I can't exchange anymore, but it's too big for me. Can I make the zipper a bit smaller at the right temperature? It's made of 80% cotton and 20% polyester.
I bought a new pillow filled with 100% polyester. Do I need to wash it before first use? The label says it can only be washed in a washing machine with a capacity of at least 7 kg. Unfortunately, mine only has a capacity of 5 kg. What would you recommend?
