Hey Jillee, I have a question. Do you know what a good substitute for baby shampoo and conditioner? Could i use vinegar?

I always "unshrink" my cotton, rayon, cotton blend etc. clothes. I wash them cold and dry them on medium and if they shrink I dip them into my sink ful of just warm water and then hang them on my hanger from my shower rod and pull them gently and reshaped them that way. I push the item behind the shower curtain and let them drip. Later on I pull on them and see what else they need to be the length I need them to be and let them dry there. I have clothes that I have to do this process to just because they twist and are not fitting the right way, you know the sleeves or sometimes a legging leg etc. I hate when the seam is all twisted. I never use anythink other than warm water. It always works but it never works on jeans and like the lady said it doesn't work on wool. I saw a product on TV once, a solution, that worked to unshrink wool by softening and relaxing the wool fibers. I'm not sure how is called.

This totally worked! I shrunk my wife's cashmere sweatpants and this helped unshrink them. A million "thanks" for posting this video.

Don't rinse it out. stretch back to shape. You may have to put something heavy in areas to hold the shape. If you don't get big enough the first time, try again. Good Luck!

A tip for wool sweaters if they shrunk. Plunge them into very (very) hot water and when (very) wet grab it by the collar swing up and down (while hot) until the size you want. Then, while it's very wet and heavy (from the water) hang them and let the water weight do the rest. My mom done it a lot o f times and it works. Hope you like the tip and it helps.

@SolidGoldHedgehog

Жыл бұрын

How hot is 'very (very)' hot? And I thought that heat was the reason for shrinking in the first place? Or is that only once it dries or is spun? Does the high heat momentarily loosen the fibers? And as for swinging, I worry that it would unevenly stretch, more where I'm holding on to it. And how would it affect the sleeves? Thanks.

This method really works!!! I've tried on cotton T-shirt and it came back to normal! Thank you Jillee for posting it!

This is a quick way but if you happen to have washed your clothes, take them out as they are out of the washing machine without drying them. Stretch them out at the edges you want. Make sure the garment is still wet but not too wet. This has always worked for me. Your idea is very helpful though

Okay the shirt is now dry and still shrunk. It looked bigger but when I tried it on it's the same. =( Edit: I figured something out. Forget the water and all the hrs of waiting for your shirt to dry. Just slide your arms up your shirt into the sleeves and make a vigorous outward motion like a bird trying to flap it's wings. Rotate the shirt to do the same thing to unshrink the stomach and back. It works if you yank the neck as well. Don't go to crazy because you could rip your shirt. Not sure how that applies to other types of clothing though.

I wore my new favorite silk blouse (only one time) on Thanksgiving. It has been in the hamper with light colored clothes waiting to be washed since then. (I wash silk in my front load washer, but never dry) Well, since it has been so long, I forgot it was in there and I washed and dried it. Do you think this will work for silk? Thanks for your tip!

hello i'm scott Harvey from Australia I love wearing sarongs they are woven cotton Ikat fabric from bali and it gets slightly shrunk sometimes and it upsets me because I'm slightly chubby around my waist I don't wash my sarongs in hot or warm water only cold ..after it is dry I iron it as i'm doing this I stretch it gently to I hope is back to the length of my sarong I love all my sarongs are long which I wrap as a skirt..on me can woven cotton shrink in cold water and is slightly stretching my sarong putting it back into its same length thankyou ps I wear and collect sarongs I own 162 sarongs in my collection they are from bali ...

Great tip.thanks for sharing. Buy wouldn't you have to wash it again to get the shampoo out?

I recently bought a shirt from PacSun it was 100% percent cotton my mom ended up throwing it in the dryer and it got like 6 inches short! So I went online found her I used her method but I used conditioner. It worked ! I stretched a lot cause I wanted it bigger and it's perfect!

This worked for me. I had some gloves that shrank in the dryer, and after treating them with the baby shampoo and warm water, I was able to upsize them to around 75% normal size.

I just shrunk my favorite jumpsuit😭 I’m not sure what the fabric is so idk if it will work

I've seen this video from others (to stretch sweatshirts, t-shirts that are too small) and this is the first time I've heard baby shampoo! Mostly it's fabric softener or hair conditioner

Can you use this method to make normal unshrunk clothing larger? 🤔

How long does this technique last? What happens after the next wash?

Oh my goodness when you said … “your dear husband put it to the dryer” 😂😂 so true

When I shrink my t-shirts, I just hang them to dry, instead of drying them, and they stretch out all by themselves. Maybe it depends on the fabric??

Thank you so much! It really works ❤️❤️ It helped me a lot❤️

Great video. Thx. Will this work on my new fave rayon dress? It shrunk in cold water in the washer! By one size for sure. I didn't dry it.

I tired this on four of my shirts,it worked fine for me. I used the baby shampoo and lukewarm water, soaked the shirts for about 15 mins, then gently squeezed the shirt to remove the moisture, used the two towels to gently pulled the shirt as mentioned in the video. I have one question, can I now iron them now and wear them or should I wash them again and wear them? and one more thing is it better to give these to cleaners outside or should I hand wash them at home?

I have a really cool adidas cotton pants i love wearing it. After i wash it and dry it, it fits perfect put after couple of hours it starts stretching and a bubbly thing appears in the knee area. How can i stop it from stretching?

Do we have to rinse out the baby shampoo out? I read in the comments about someone asking that too, but I'm wondering if having baby shampoo in the clothing is going to do anything to it after it dries.

Great! I’m going to try this. Can I use Castile Liquid Soap if I don’t have baby shampoo?

I just found out you can use fabric softener or hair conditioners if you don't have baby shampoo. I actually think they're better than baby shampoo. They also relax fabric..

Thank you this helped so much!

Can this method be used to stretch cotton shirts that haven't been in a dryer but are a bit too small?

I accidentally washed a rayon dress. As soon as I took it out of the washer, it was completely wrinkled, so I took out the excess water and then ironed it to "smooth" and "stretch" it out. Have I wrecked it, seeing as I ironed it when it was still damp? In other words, did ironing "set the fabric" so that it can no longer be stretched? This is a rayon dress that does need "ironing" because it is a silky kind of rayon. I can wait until it's dry to iron again but I will have to iron it.

question is there a way to wash your clothes next time after you did this whole process of unshrinking your shirt so it doesn’t shrink anymore?

omg this worked on my pants and im so thankful i found this video

it does work on wool sweaters. Did it, and it works great

I've seen this done with fabric softener could either work?

would this work on cashmere? or would it damage the fabric even more...

Thank you so much! I had just gotten a new shirt and was devastated to see it shrunk :( but this helped so much! Have a blessed day!!

Would this work with a rayon dress? I didn't think rayon would shrink so I dried my new dress that i got for my birthday and it is now really short!

Very good tip...Thank you.

And even after this works how should i handle the 100 percent rayon cloth for further washes in the future? Do they keep on shrinking?

What type of fabrics does this work with? and if it doesn't work on fabrics, can it possibly damage it?

Could it work on dresses?👗 P.s could it work on a item that gas not shrunk but wanna make it longer/bigger?😩😥

Any idea if this works for viscose? I’lll give it a try anyway.

Does this work on 100% polyester?

What else can i use instead of baby shampoo and does this work for jeans. Thanks

After I succeeded to unshrink it and it’s dry, can I wash it again to get the baby shampoo out if it? Because I don’t want to walk around with baby shampoo in the garment.

I have read elsewhere to use conditioner. Could I use that instead of the baby shampoo?

When do you rinse the garment to get rid of the soap?

Will this work if the clothes have been shrunk and re-washed for a long time?

I have a couple dress shirts for work that I can't really button the top button (makes it too tight)... would it work to try and stretch that out with this? The rest of the shirt fits fine

What if you add a little bit of baby shampoo to the wash cycle and wash it on cold and put it in the dryer on the lowest setting? I wonder if that might fix the issue

does it work on rayon also? I have an awesome rayon shirt that got dried by accident and now it looks like baby clothes :( I'd love to be able to get it back to normal.

I'm wondering if I I can use that method for pillow cases

Does it work if there's like a decal imprinted on the sweatshirt or will that cause it to come off??

Would fabric softener work since it's a conditioner and neutralizer?

Will this work on a jersey that you had for a couple years?

Would this work to stretch clothes that haven't been shrunken but are too small? I bought these pants but they are too small and I cant return them but they were expensive.

Does it have to be baby shampoo? Also, thank you for the video!

Does the clothing item need to be washed again in the machine right after it dries from the shampoo water?
