Avoid certain materials – If you’re particularly susceptible to static, you should avoid synthetic clothing, as this is usually the worst culprit.

Buying clothes made of natural fibres helps, as it can retain moisture better.

Don’t skip fabric conditioner – fabric conditioner really helps as it reduces friction between fabrics, so there’s less static build-up.

Alternatively, you can use a splash of white wine vinegar in your wash alongside your normal detergent, which will also help reduce build-up.
