# How to Get Lumps out of Pillows
Synthetic pillows and feather pillows can develop lumps. Moisture and dirt are sometimes the culprit, and lumps may also develop during washing the pillows.
These lumps are unsightly and uncomfortable to sleep on. It may seem the lumps are permanent, but there is an easy way to remove the lumps from most pillows without having to remove the pillow’s feathers or stuffing.
