Wear under your suit:
- Even though my suits heads are lined, I recommend wearing a balaclava underneath the head to stay cool and dry.
- You may also choose to wear cooling athletic underwear, such as Under Armour, under your clothing. You will still get hot despite not wearing a bodysuit!!
- I recommend a strong, wide belt to hold up the tail. Especially if it is a floor-dragger!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transportation:
- I recommend getting a storage bin for taking your suit to conventions or travelling.
- A large hard suitcase is also a very good option!
- Keep in mind the dimensions of your suit's head, and try not to get something that it will be squished in. My suits are very durable, but are not meant to be squished for long periods of time.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Use this method when the suit has only been worn for a short period of time!
- Use a fursuit disinfectant spray (1 part rubbing alcohol, 1 part water) inside and outside the head and parts. Avoid the eyes.
- Brush head and fursuit parts with a slicker brush.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Use this method after conventions, outdoor wear, or any other long-term suiting!
- Handpaws, arm sleeves, and feetpaws, and tails can be washed in the washing machine on the coldest, most delicate setting with a delicate laundry detergent. Place each part in a pillowcase with the end tied off to avoid anything getting tangled up and stretched. After washing, they can be laid out on a towel in a bathtub to dry after being gently brushed out in the correct direction. DO NOT USE DRYER FOR YOUR FURSUIT PARTS!!! THE FUR WILL MELT AND CLUMP!!
- The head can be gently washed inside and outside by hand with BARELY warm water with a washcloth and gentle detergent. Be extra careful around your suits eyes and try to avoid getting the eyes wet. Rinse soap out by wiping down with a clean wet washcloth until there is no soap left. DO NOT SUBMERGE YOUR FURSUIT HEAD IN WATER!! Follow the same drying instructions for machine washable parts.
- For stains, scrub with a washcloth and gentle stain remover, like Folex. It may take multiple tries to get stain out.

*Tip: use water that is neither cold nor hot, just about the temperature of your body.*
*Please note that a lot of my work is HAND SEWN! Be gentle!!*
