Each type of natural fur, be it an arctic fox or a rabbit, has a degree of warmth retention and wearability. So, for example, a product made from rabbit will not warm its owners in the winter cold, and will begin to crumble after a year or two of wear. If with a cheap rabbit there is no question why the fur is shedding and peeling, a silver fox that has peeled off after two months can be a real shock.
Natural fur
Why doesn't the fur hold up?
If seasonal molting is a natural process for animals, thinning fur on a mink coat is a big problem.
The most common reasons for a fur coat coming off include:
- Craftsmanship. Handicraft production that fails to comply with basic technological requirements leads to the formation of bald spots on fur coats or vests. Often this problem results from the fact that the furrier damaged the hair follicles of the skin during the dressing process.
- Poor quality material. Old skins with dry and rustling yellow flesh should not be used in production.
- Painting. The desire to repaint a gray hare to look like an ashy mink will lead to the resulting product peeling off due to exposure to aggressive chemicals.

In addition, the appearance of outerwear can be spoiled due to the fault of its owner:

Is it possible to stop the process
What to do if fur from astrakhan fur or arctic fox comes out? Do not panic. In most cases the process is not a problem. The fact is that the loss of pile between the seams is a consequence of damage to a small number of fibers caught on the cut. To prevent the process from taking too long, you can carefully comb out the cut fibers with a comb.
Combing a fur coat
These recommendations apply to cases where short fur from a fox or astrakhan fur is coming out. Once the long core hair begins to fall out, it is impossible to stop the process. Most likely, it was caused by the lack of finishing treatment, which removes the shortened villi.
What to do if a moth “eats” your fur coat? It is better to acquire special cases for storing fur items in advance. You can purchase covers at any hardware store. The secret of their action is simple - the non-woven fabric from which they are sewn is impregnated with special preparations that repel insects. If covers were not purchased, and the moth managed to feast on a fluffy arctic fox or fox, it is important to eliminate traces of flying pests on the fur as soon as possible. Larvae and adults can be destroyed using special insecticides.
Covers for clothes
Bald spots formed as a result of wearing bag straps on the shoulder or sleeve cannot be restored independently. Such mechanical defects can only be masked with the help of large and voluminous brooches, scarves, and other accessories. Professional fur restoration studios will also help correct the situation.
Defects resulting from improper painting or processing cannot be corrected even in a studio. Such items must be returned to the store.
Caring for Arctic fox fur at home
How to restore arctic fox fur after washing in an automatic washing machine? Frost
With prolonged wear, especially products made from long-pile furs (skin of arctic foxes, uncut sheepskin, fox, nutria), matting of the hair occurs (hair tangling, formation of felt-like “lumps” and “balls”). If after washing you managed to achieve only this effect, then it can be eliminated at home. The processing of the felted area of fur begins from the edge from the top of the hair, holding the treated area in weight with the left hand, and combing the strand from top to bottom with the right hand and gradually penetrating all the way to the skin. You can use an ordinary metal or plastic comb with long and sparse teeth. Long hair should be combed in the direction of the natural inclination of the hair, short hair should be combed in the opposite direction.
Under no circumstances should fur items be ironed with a heated iron, either from the fur or from the skin, since even after a slight temperature exposure the leather structure of the fur is “welded.” This is an irreparable marriage. The skin becomes dense, stiff, shrinks and falls apart when slightly stretched. If the washing took place at a high temperature (and for fur this is even a slight heating), then you could get the same result, and nothing can correct this.
How should you clean fur at home?
For light fur you need starch and a brush. The best friend for a white fur coat or hat is starch. Sprinkle it, sparingly, directly onto the fur, gently knead and rub until the powder collects the dirt. Then the fur coat must be shaken well and combed. If the starch from the fur spills out frankly gray, the procedure must be repeated.
Cleaning dark fur. To bring the fur coat to perfection, we will need ordinary bran (you can buy it at the pharmacy - they are sold as a food supplement) and half a glass of walnut kernels. Heat the bran in the oven or microwave to 60 - 70 degrees (this is quite hot to the touch). Now we will carefully rub them into the fur, simulating washing, until the bran collects all the dirt. Now grind the nuts in a coffee grinder and tie the powder into double-folded gauze. Use this swab to wipe the fur along the pile. Walnut oil nourishes the hairs, and they will have a vibrant, effective shine for a long time. Finally, comb the fur coat with a natural bristle brush.
And finally, what not to do with fur. So, the fur will not live long if you:
- decided to wash it with powder;
- wash it in the shower with shampoo;
- decide to dry it with a hairdryer;
- you will actively knock dust out of it, like from a rug;
- remove greasy stains with gasoline or acetone;
- comb the noble fur with a slicker brush against the grain;
- dry it near the stove or radiator.

How to return substandard
Is your recently purchased silver fox or astrakhan vest falling out? There is a way out - the item can be returned to the store where it was sold. This right of the buyer is stated in the warranty card for the fur product, issued along with the receipt upon purchase. However, under the guarantee, you can return a fur coat only within two weeks.
If the warranty period has expired, and the buyer still has all the receipts for the fur coat that turned out to be of poor quality, you can try to resolve the dispute with the sellers amicably. People who value their reputation will compromise and either return the money or replace the product with one of equal price.
If a compromise cannot be reached, the buyer has the opportunity to submit substandard fur for examination to EXO and UTPP. The results of the examination are indicated in the statement of claim, which the injured buyer files in court.
Just like natural fur, faux fur can also shed. The main reason for this phenomenon in unnatural things is the destruction of the lining of the product.
Rules for choosing fur products
In order to avoid getting into a situation where a fur coat worth several thousand rubles begins to “climb”, you need to adhere to a few simple rules when purchasing it. Firstly, purchase only products that have a certificate and other accompanying documents confirming their quality. In this case, you will buy an item made in accordance with all technological rules, which will not be subject to the described defect.
Secondly, buy only microchipped furs. Microchipping will guarantee their authenticity. As a result, they will serve you for a long time, unlike low-quality fakes that lack such protection.
Thirdly, prefer the fur of those animals that are found in your area. In this case, you will be sure that it will withstand the harsh Russian winter well.
