A very common mistake a beginner makes when learning how to tie a tie is that once you get that first knot done right, you would never even think about untying your tie at the end of the day. Instead, you would probably prefer to make the loop just big enough to pull your head out and hang the tied tie on a clothes hanger or over the back of a chair.
Unfortunately, that is the most damaging thing you could ever do to your tie. What you should do is to properly untie your tie. However, this is where half the nation - yes, beginners and folks who have worn ties for quite some time alike - commit the second gravest sin when it comes to untying any tie. That is to just rip it off by the time you get home. Paying a little attention is key here, though, as doing the opposite will definitely ruin your tie - rather sooner than later. Instead of hastily tearing and yanking a tie from your neck, repeat all of the steps you followed to tie your tie but now do so in reverse order! Step #7 becomes #1, step #6 becomes #2 and so on... While this process might not save you extra minutes each evening, it will definitely save you, your precious tie and your hard-money, that you would have to spend on new ties every couple of weeks. Remember that as with all things precious, it is going the extra mile to make it last, to keep it coming, to keep happening! "Instead of hastily tearing and yanking to remove your tie from your neck, take the time to repeat all of the steps you followed to tie your tie but now do so in reverse order!" |
