Though she was disappointed by the results from using Bobble Off, Becky decided to have a go removing them with a razor.

She was so impressed by the method that she took to Facebook to share her findings with others.

Writing on the Facebook group , Becky explained, "I have 2 sons aged 5 & 9 and their uniform still fits from last year.

"It’s not discoloured, just bobbly. I bought the JML Bobble Off and it took me over an hour to do one and to be honest it didn’t look great after.

"So my partner suggested to shave it using a razor! It’s so quick and looks so much better.

Just thought I’d share to see if it can save anyone else some money too!

"The price of uniform seems to go up and up every year!"

Others quickly chimed in, agreeing that running a razor over bobbles was the most effective way to make clothes look brand new again.
