This pro life tip brought to you by The Irritation of Removing Uncomfortable Tags.

Use a seamripper to remove the stitches that attach a tag and the garment itself. See attached picture for a demonstration of this. Seamrippers are cheap (~1 USD is typical) and available at any store with even a token sewing section, such as walmart or target, and some grocery stores as well. Using a seamripper lets you remove the tag entirely, while cutting the tag off usually leaves behind a sliver of the tag fabric that can be uncomfortable.

    Nope… I’ll deal with the hole in the neck of the shirt way better than i will deal with the tag. I prefer to use a seam ripper, but I’ve just violently torn out many a tag when I didn’t have an alternative.
