Sleeves first, then one side of front, back, next side of front and finally collar.
Used to be all shirts ironed whilst watching a programme, now wear them so infrequently, its just one and there is a huge pile waiting accusingly! |

"Collar first, then the front followed by the back then the sleeves.
Yeah thats how i roll. And sometimes a quick press over each shoulder yoke. "
Oh always the shoulders and don't forget between the buttons and both sides of the cuffs |

"Funny how most start with collar. I do front half, back, other front half, sleeves and shoulders and finish with collar  "
I'm with you on this one. It's very rare I do it though as they are my sons and he only wears shirts when going somewhere dressy, he's more of a t-shirt type normally. |

"Collar first. Then one side of sleeve then the other.shirt unbuttoned,one side of the front,then the back in three parts,then other front side. Job done  "
More or less standard procedure though I do the yoke after collar and before sleeves |

"How do you do your shirts? "
One should always do the fiddly bits first - collar, shoulders, cuffs. Then sleeves, back and onto the two front panels so they remain pristine.
Always best done when slightly damp, lots of steam. |

Both sides of the sleeves first, them the front, flip it over, see there's a crease on the back as a result of ironing the front, spend 10 minutes trying to iron that out, give up and hope no one notices |

Hahaha. Wouldn’t exactly say dangerous, just slightly disturbing. It’s not pretty when I breathe out. Don’t let the pictures fool you.

All you 'collar firsts' are talking crazy.
It's cuff, sleeve, other cuff/sleeve, half the front, side, back, side, other front half, shoulder, shoulder, collar. It's like the shirt rotates your ironing board.
Bish, bash, bosh and over in 7 mins! |
