thank u very much! im currently still a kid (under 13) so i would need this info for the future when i do end up making a fursuit and you guys prob are like “why dont you commission one?” its a skulldog fursuit so technically you r forced to make it
Kuromi, can I just say, for someone under 13, you sound like a pretty responsible person for actually looking into these things so you dont do something wrong, miss a step, or endanger yourself and or others in attempting to make a fursuit, or just have one in general. I respect you. Not even teenagers are always that responsible, nor always think ahead before trying to do something, and I say that as a 14 year old.
Yeah, maybe one could fold the suit and pick it up with both hands instead of just dragging it with one. I don’t have one so this is just an idea, if this is incorrect, please tell.
Fascinating. Didn't realize how much maintenance is required to maintain cleanliness for all fursuit parts. Btw, love your thumbnail, which is both funny and fact. XD
i learned of someone who made the japanese style, multi layered eyes that he just pops out of his suit. he 3D printed brackets that are sewn inside the head
@@ann6442 You don't need to do anything special, just shove a whole bunch of paper towels in the eye sockets and take care to not douse them completely in water
Hot tip for more delicate pieces: Invest in mesh washing bags! It'll keep long fur from snagging anywhere and ripping, it'll protect your seams, and overall, it's just a good thing to have, even outside of fursuiting.
If I ever get a fursuit this cleaning always intimidates me because I never know what's washable and what isn't and the extra steps to keep them super fluffy and clean. Thank you for making a well detailed cleaning video.
@@MixedBeauty01 If I didn't have a life I would have responded 4 hours ago, I had school, and I will have school till June of 2022 then I'll be off for a few months, then I'll go back.
...Okay, I need to ensure that my eventual corset that holds extra arms can have the arms removed - and have the "skin" removed from the arms - so that everything can be washed. I was going to have the arms permanently attached to the corset for strength, but I forgot about the hygiene angle. Thanks for this information, I'll be sure to include "How To Clean And Care For This Costume" in my calculations as I make my stuff. (That's an easy thing to forget in all the hype of "How To Make This Costume Look AWESOME".)
Yes it is so very important to keep them clean! Helps with the longevity of the suit but dirty suits are very gross lol. I do pretty much the same process as you as my handpaws and bodysuits are machine washable. I make my tails machine washable too as I have a hidden zipper so you can take the stuffing out and wash.
I only have a partial and haven't properly washed my pieces yet (i plan to closer to con time, though), but I use a detangling brush instead of a slicker brush to brush out the fur on my pieces. It seems to give a similar result with less loss of fur. :3
I always use my bathtub, and every time I wash my fursuit in the tub, my arms hurt! But when you do it in the tub most of the time, it's not that bad. I also have a Honeywell fan that I got for free, it's amazing.
I'm not even a furry and never will be, I just wondered how yall are supposed to keep those beautiful wearable pieces of art clean XD Pretty character ^^
Im very sad your tt was banned, but great to see your active again on yt!! Always loved your work, hope your still open to commissions when im older so i can buy a fursuit! Ive loved you since i was 8. Stay safe!!
@@Neffertity i agree! Also I’m having a mini celebration you replied- 😂 I’ve mostly preferred youtube over tiktok, because its a greater platform and a bit less toxic than tiktok.
ty your video was super helpful! Especially the part with cleaning with the bissel inside the head I was curious about that. Thanks again for the helpful video
Thank you so so much for this video! I was relieved how thorough your instructions were, and that you covered each part of the suit. Once I get my Partial pieces, I can keep them nice and fresh after wearing them for a good long time :D
I've been SO scared to put my suit in the washing machine as mine also has the agitator (however you spell it) in the middle, I've heard mixed things about whether or not if it'd be a safe process! But after seeing this video, I think I have the confidence to wash my suit in the washing machine versus the tub! I've always used my little green machine!
@Neffertity The stitching has been really good and I've had the suit since 2017 or 2018 without any issues! I've always used the little green machine to wash it, but now I'm gonna try the washer!
Hey Neffertiti! Could you maybe do a tutorial on the easiest/best way for a beginner to make a fursuit head? Please and thank you! (BTW I love your fursuits, they look so good!)
This is so helpful, thank you! Would it work to use a front-loading washer as well? My washer also automatically loads the soap after the stuff is inside, so I'm not sure if it's too risky to do it that way
great information, cant wait till i have enough for my own. but its gonna be a while until leone is actually made because its probably gonna cost around $1000-2000.... fursuits are surprisingly expensive and hard to keep clean
It's all cause you was suiting in central Florida which is basicly as hot as the surface of the sun ,but it's on fire. It was very nice meeting you in the headless lounge (I was the tall protogen with the shark tail)
@@Neffertity Realistically suiting in Florida is a different game cause even our winters are like most others places summer. I see so many really awesome full suits and all I can think is "that's a fur oven". Anyhow thanks for so many useful tutorials. Hope you come back next year.
For your body suit, I highly recommend a wet suit dryer to blow air inside your suit for faster drying (if you didn't already know) happy to send ya what I use :)
1:35 what about people with front-loading washers ? its not possible to put the detergent first on these, as they have a drawer to put it in unless you use a pod.
When you were removing the wings and stuff from keaanu I noticed behind you the blue mermaid fins I have the exact same things, same color, except mine are in much worse condition (meaning I shouldn’t still have them they’re like 5 years old)
@@Neffertity huh! Well i couldn’t see it very well but it looked a lot like my old one I love your suits by the way you’ve inspired me a lot in making my own ^^
I just have one question I am Farley new to the furry community i started about 2 years ago I have just gotten a head base that is not made out of foam and would like it if you could show how to clean and sterilize that as well. also i just wanted to say i have been watching you're videos for quite awhile now and love how you go along with what you are doing so i just personally wanted to say that you have personally inspired me to be a furry and fursuit maker in the future i hope you continue to make awesome how to content cause i love learning new techniques from you so thank you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So basically: Flat or mostly flat pieces: washing machine on delicates, cold, with gentle detergent and optional fabric softener & scent, then brush backwards and hang to dry. Pieces with foam: little green with diluted gentle detergent, then place over fan to dry if necessary.
Do you have any tips on tail cleaning without using a little green machine? I like keeping my Vaporeon tail nice and spotless, so I use basic H spray and a little bit of water for small marks. I have one coat of Trinova Stain Guard on the lowest underside and on the fins. Scarborough Fair is coming up, so I was just curious.
@@Neffertity Hm! Got it, thanks! I basically did the same with a basic h, soap, and water cleaning after the con and lord of blow-drying. Would machine mash work for super-motion tails?
It's just a question I really wanted to ask, even though it's not related to this. Do you have any pointers on making much more thin dragon fursona gloves?
Thank you for this! Just wondering, how do you make your wings removable? How do they attach to the bodysuit? I’ve made a foam base for wings similar to your wing tutorial, but I’m not sure how to smoothly transition the wings into the bodysuit
Thanks for the nice tutorial! I really liked that you talked about every part of the Fullsuit at a time. Will you be uploading compilations of your TT Tutorials to RUclips as well so they‘re still available? They all were extremely helpful! ♡ But I understand that it might be too time consuming to find and upload them all.
Hey neffertity! I dont know if you remember me but i played creatures of sonaria on your private server with you i was Giawolf1. :D Anyway, i just wanted to ask where do you get the green machine? Also i love your method of cleaning your suits and how the gradiants are still there and never come off :).

Another tip: be cautious when lifting a wet body suit - the water makes it heavy and could pop a seam!

@@roboteacat yeah thats smart! squeeze as much water out as possible then fold it :)
Is nobody gonna talk about the way it looks like the tail actually looked like it was taken off the body? Like wow the detail
Yup! Little details. ^_^
Ye that's her signature for tails it's really cool
She always does that! 😻
I know right it’s amazing! ✨✨✨
@@Neffertity the green machine I like that
Fascinating. Didn't realize how much maintenance is required to maintain cleanliness for all fursuit parts.
Btw, love your thumbnail, which is both funny and fact. XD
I have known most fursuit owners that they have to cover up the eyes so it doesn’t damage or wetting the eyes paint design.
Yes, that helps avoid the paint bleeding. :)
i learned of someone who made the japanese style, multi layered eyes that he just pops out of his suit. he 3D printed brackets that are sewn inside the head

How do you use it? Do you just put the suit inside and then wash like normal?
pillow cases work too :)

Smokey you shouldn't wear those cardboard heads. They aren't actually safe. (There are some videos that explain why if you search youtube)
same but I do want one lol

The amount of effort you put into your suits is amazing!! I love your work so much :) so talented
Thank you for appreciating it. ^_^
Having a dehumidifier near your air drying space is also a good idea
This is highly satisfying to watch. I can imagine how fluffy and nice smelling it is afterwards!
ADORABLE CAT ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love to watch these~ It really helps people like me who plan to get a suit one day thank you soo much uwu
I’m currently making a new fursuit and I didn’t know how I was gonna wash it- but when i saw this I was super relieved

This is super helpful and easy to follow! It would also be cool to know how to wash raptor masks with feathers on them.
I can probably do a video on that in the future

Yup!
The Mermaid Linden one
thank you i needed one of these videos thank you Neffertity^^!!

hi !! this was a great video, but is there a way to wash a head or tail without a green machine ? and if someone explain it to me ? thank you !
Wow I think you helped.
However my washer is different, ours is a front loading washer. Would we be able to still put a fursuit though it?
It should be similar enough, just always ask your maker if your suit is washing machine safe.
Great tutorial!
very helpful!
So is it the when u wash a protogen ( not the head Ik )
Tysm
So basically:
Flat or mostly flat pieces: washing machine on delicates, cold, with gentle detergent and optional fabric softener & scent, then brush backwards and hang to dry.
Pieces with foam: little green with diluted gentle detergent, then place over fan to dry if necessary.
Do you have any tips on tail cleaning without using a little green machine? I like keeping my Vaporeon tail nice and spotless, so I use basic H spray and a little bit of water for small marks. I have one coat of Trinova Stain Guard on the lowest underside and on the fins.
Scarborough Fair is coming up, so I was just curious.
I usually make my tails machine washable, but I have found oxiclean and a microfiber rag with a LOT of elbow grease helps get out those tough spots.
@@Neffertity Hm! Got it, thanks! I basically did the same with a basic h, soap, and water cleaning after the con and lord of blow-drying. Would machine mash work for super-motion tails?
