Almost every woman has hairspray at home. Now these products are available in such a variety of forms and have so many different purposes that it is not surprising that they can be used for more than just creating a hairstyle. Some of the non-standard uses of hairspray are so unusual they are hard to believe. Let's find out how a can of varnish can help.

1. If you have trousers or jeans with a weak zipper that constantly opens, then most likely they are in the closet. It is not very pleasant to wear such clothes, risking to show others underwear at any time. To keep a good pair of trousers from being lost by the zipper, spray it with hairspray, and the zipper will hold much better.

2. Arrows on pantyhose are usually stopped with nail polish. The method, of course, is proven, but it takes a lot of time to dry, and tights are very fond of tearing just before going out, when every second is precious. Try applying some hairspray to the arrow and it won't go any further. And the whole process will take less than a minute.

3. If lumps appear on your favorite sweater, spray it with hairspray and rub it well with a paper towel. The sticky varnish will quickly adhere the pellets to the towel and make them easy to remove.
