Have you ever shrunk your favourite shirt in the dryer, and now it’s your favorite RAG? Well, next time, remember to wash your cottons and wools in cold water. And if it ever happens again, you might be able to UNSHRINK it, using HAIR CONDITIONER! At least for anything made of cotton.
\nHere’s how to do it . . .<\/p>\n
1.\u00a0 Fill a bucket with lukewarm water.\u00a0 Then add a few big squirts of conditioner, and mix it in.\u00a0 You can also do it in the sink.<\/p>\n
2.\u00a0 Toss the piece of clothing in there for 15 to 30 minutes and let it soak.\u00a0 The conditioner should help the fibers loosen up and expand.<\/p>\n
3.\u00a0 Take it out and gently squeeze the water out of it, but don’t twist or wring it out.\u00a0 If it’s full of conditioner, you can rinse it a little, but not too much.<\/p>\n
4.\u00a0 Gently stretch and lay it out on a clean, dry towel and then roll it up.\u00a0 Rolling it should keep it in place, so it won’t shrink back down.<\/p>\n
5.\u00a0 Wait until it’s mostly dry, and gently stretch the fabric again to get it back to its original shape.<\/p>\n
6.\u00a0 Lay it out on another towel until it’s fully dry.\u00a0 You might need to roll it up or weigh it down with something again, just to make sure it doesn’t shrink.\u00a0 But hopefully, you’ll end up with a shirt that fits again.<\/p>\n
