How to remove smoking smell from clothes? There are a few ways which will be listed. Firstly, if you have a mode on your washer like “hand wash” or “ultra hand wash,” you should put the piece of clothing in cold water with Woolite, not regular detergent. You may also do that by hand and in either case, hang the suit up to dry. This ought to work without leaving any damage. You may also hang the suit in a well ventilated area and spray it with Febreeze and let it air out for about one day or two. As you may have realized already, cigarette smoke smell is really hard to get out of clothing. Secondly, you could wash them thrice in a row with color safe bleach and hang dry them and do not wear them until you are done. Note that you should not place them into an actual dryer until you have finished this.

Or, you may follow these steps, for if you have spent many consecutive hours around cigarette smoke, regular washing of the clothing items may not get rid of all of the cigarette smoke smell. By applying white vinegar before you wash, you can get rid of the cigarette smoke smell from your clothing. Fill the sink with cold water and between half a cup to one cup of white vinegar. How much vinegar you add should hinge on how many clothes you are washing and how much the clothes reek of cigarette smoke. Next, soak the clothes in the mixture for fifteen minutes. Then, hang your clothes in the bathroom, suitably in close proximity to your shower. After that, set the shower to the hottest possible temperature. Turn the shower on and shut the bathroom door so the room is engulfed with steam. Turn the shower off after around five minutes, and let the clothes hang in the steam-filled room for about thirty minutes to an hour. Then, rinse the clothes completely with cold water. Wring the clothes out and rinse them again many times. Next, place the clothing into the washing machine. Add liquid laundry detergent and liquid fabric softener to the clothes. Set the washer to run as normal. Finally, place the clothes into the dryer. Add two dryer sheets and then let the dryer run as normal.
