Does anyone has any easy tip on making the collar and the end sleeves of your shirt stiff? After several wash, the collar of my shirt becomes soft. =( I had heard of using starch during ironing, but I am not sure how.

my suggestion is to use the iron every day.what's more,you'd better not wring it at full tilt after washing,just sun it and let it be dry naturally.

I iron my clothes everyday. With just normal ironing, will it harden the collar? I don't think so, or at least it is not working for me. =P

You can get factory made starch in a spray can from the supermarket, just spray it on and iron.
Or the traditional way my mom does, mix one tablespoon of cornstarch with half cup of water. Stir over fire till mixture is translucent, fill spray bottle and use like commercial starch.
