What is safe to hang and what should I fold?
I know you fold sweaters and hang suits and button downs, but that’s about it. I’m trying to save time with laundry without ruining my clothes.
I have lots of T-Shirts and Polos. Can these be hung long term? I know the cheap plastic and wire ones leave dimples, but what about the nice wooden ones? What if I hang a polo or t-shirt for a year without wearing it?
Folding takes a lot of time, but it also causes creases when I go to wear the clothing. Hanging the garment up and steaming it takes additional time I’d rather save and it causes the clothes to be slightly damp for a bit unless I let it dry for an hour or two.
Give me your laundry hacks please 🙏

Hair care advice? Hair looks dull. What can I do?
So, some background.
I’m a 29M with blonde hair. It’s on the fine side, and probably getting worse due to some thinning. Most of my thinning is in the front with some minor recession. I keep things short and then kind of brush it to the side.
My routine is:
Shampoo and conditioner daily, which is R+Co hydrating line. I then blow dry it on medium/low heat and style with Aveda Men’s Performance Clay. This gives me decent results, but my hair is also very matte/dull looking. This may be because of the thinning, the properties of the clay paste, the shampoo daily, or all of the above.
I guess I’m just looking for advice on having less dull looking hair. I don’t want to shampoo daily, but because I have fine and thin hair, things get greasy and clump up faster. Also, the clay paste doesn’t wash out well with just water, and using only conditioner doesn’t seem much better.

Help with color coordination, please. I’m too stupid to grasp color theory.
I recently got a new job in sales, and I have to start doing customer visits. I currently have three branded polos with the company’s name on it, and need to find good pants AND shoe/belt colors for each of them. I asked ChatGPT, and this was its response:
1. Royal Blue Polo:
Pants:
- Light Khaki/Chinos: These are classic and safe for a business casual setting.
- Grey: This would work as well, just ensure it's not too light of a grey to maintain a professional look.
Shoes & Belt: - Brown or tan: These earth tones will balance the vibrancy of the royal blue and keep the look professional. 2. Navy Blue Polo: Pants: - Light Khaki/Chinos: This would look professional yet approachable. - Grey: Light to medium grey will provide a nice contrast.
Shoes & Belt: - Brown or tan: Creates a classic, put-together look. - Black: It can work well for a more formal appearance. 3. Black Polo: Pants: - Grey: From light grey to charcoal, all would work well. Charcoal might be especially good for maintaining a professional tone. - Khaki: Lighter shades can provide a nice contrast, but stay away from very light shades to maintain a professional appearance.
Shoes & Belt: - Black: Matches the shirt and creates a sleek, cohesive look. This is a safe choice in this context. In any case, avoid very bright or contrasting colors and stick with more muted, professional tones. Remember, fit is just as important as color – you want your clothes to be well-fitted but comfortable for you. It will reflect positively on your appearance and leave a good impression. Are these good recommendations? Any additional/better ones you can think of? I’m selling machines, so I don’t need to be in a suit or blazer.
