How can I get the smell of smoke off my clothes fast?
I'm 14, and I have been smoking for a while now. I have always had the problem with smelling like smoke, so usually I just wear 2 shirts and take 1 off when I smoke, and I use to put cologne on after smoking, but that sticks out too much. So I'm wondering if there are any other ways to get rid of the smell, fast?

I know you don't want to hear this, but please quit. You're only 14! My sister started smoking at 13 years old, and she's still smoking now at 45 years old. It's no longer "cool" for her. She can't quit. She's tried more times than I can count. She can hardly even remember being a non-smoker...she was only 12 years old the last time she didn't smoke...and that was over 30 years ago.
The younger you are when you start, the harder it is to quit.
If you really want a product that removes smoke smell, use "Smells BeGone". It's a clear spray available at Aco and Ace Hardware. It looks like water, and it works like magic. My sister uses it...even in her hair.
Here's what the bottle looks like:

Smells BeGone doesn't have a smell at all...it just eliminates smells.
But please...quit smoking. You're the same age as my son, and it breaks my heart that you're smoking. You're just a baby.

Sometimes you come home from a night out and your clothes smell of smoke and various other odors. All you want to do--short of fumigating your clothes--is rid them of the smell. But how, short of washing them? A few quick and easy steps....and before long, presto, the smells are gone from your clothes!
Step 1
Hang smoke filled clothes on a hanger as soon as you get home.
Step 2
Buy an odor removing spray that you can easily purchase at any travel item store or home supply store like Bed, Bath & Beyond.
Step 3
Cover the clothing with an odor removing spray and let it soak in for a few minutes. The lemony scent of the spray will cling onto the smoke infused piece of clothing and absorb it, leaving only the lemony scent to dominate.
Step 4
Spray the item a second time and leave it to dry if the smell lingers. These sprays are usually quick drying and very effective on the first try. However, peskier scents may take a little more effort and a little longer to remove.
Step 5
Leave the item of clothing still hanging and let it air dry.

I would first suggest you to wash your clothes immediately so that it won't give it anytime to set in. Aren't you a little young to be smoking. Since you're wondering about your clothes, so i guess your bed things and other household items smell like smoke as well, so i would keep febreeze on hand for the car and everything.

I don't smoke but know abit about the science lol!
Im reasonably sure the smell kida 'clings' to the fibers in your clothes, so the quickest way to get rid of it is actually to wash it! The next best thing is to air them, so move around in the fresh air.
I don't wanna preach or out but smokin is pretty bad esp. if ur 14! I do know that it's hard to stop when u start though, lots of my mates are 15 and sum of them smoke and just cant stop!

febreeze?, pick some up from the shop on your way to meet them. and spray it over your clothes. Dont try spraying deodrant or anything on your clothes it will just make the smell worse. Other than that washing would be your only option, but if its a really important meeting. Buy some a new shirt and trousers? and change in a bathroom somewhere

Child, stop smoking. You have no idea what you are doing to yourself.
Your lungs are still growing. The cells in your lungs are reproducing as your lungs get bigger. ANY error that you write into one cell is going to be amplified because that cell will divide and redivide and redivide and redivide.
I know a friend. He started to smoke when he was twelve. Now he is grown up. He has two beautiful boys. He is dying of cancer. He CANNOT stop. He has tried everything. He is really sick. He is dying and he CANNOT stop.
You can.
Do not do this to your future child. Do not take their parent away from them. Do not be this cruel.

Quit smoking. If your parents don't smoke, they will smell it on you no matter what you do. I am a non smoker and I can smell a smoker across the room.
