Hi beauties!
If you're like me, then you've had a lot of issues finding jeans that fit at the waist and down the leg at the same time. This hack is a great quick fix that helps take in the waist of your denim and easily downsize your jeans! It helped me quickly alter my favorite Zara jeans with the tools I already have at home. Let me know what you guys think!

It worksss! I've been losing weight lately and my pants are down to 2 sizes, and that shoelace saves me from going to the tailor or buying a new pants 😁 i am still a couple kg away from my weight goal so I will keep using this shoelace before buying new pants. Thank you for this video!

Thank you for saving my life because I almost had to wear pants that didn't fit me to school they were size 14 and I need a size 10
hi! first of all i wanted to thank you for trying this method and make us see if it really works! i just tried and it works great, cheap and fast method, i love it lol a tip for everyone: if you got a crochet hook or knitting tools you can tape an end of the shoe lace to the hook and use that to guide the shoelace through the wait band, it's a lot easier, i don't have bobby pins and this have really work good for me🤗
Yiu sounds like someone who is afraid they gonna judge I think is a good quick fix and the best thing about it is that I’ll feel good I did it my self ❤️
I have a pair of jeans that need this so badly, I'm so happy I found this!
DEF gonna try this. the jeans i’m gonna do these on have so much space in the front and it looks super baggy on me. thank you so much
This hack is amazing!!!!!!! I used this on a pair of pants that just barely fit but I didn't want to sew them and now they don't ride down!!!!!!! God send for weight fluctuations.
I tried it, it works! I'm so happy. i really hated the idea of putting on a belt, I'm glad I no longer have to!
omg it worked!!! thank you so much for this amazing and relatable video haha
I would probably draw it to my waist and then make a knot on each end instead of tying together because sometimes, you gotta get in the bathroom and the knot don't want to come undone and it's an emergency... But otherwise I probably wouldn't even get them tailored.
I need this hack because I want to wear my dad's jeans tomorrow 😂
thank u so much!!! this hack helped me so much & saved me a pair of jeans!! (:

i'm so grateful for this trick, now i can wear all the wrong size jeans that i bought 😂
I just took a hoodie string and used that!!
I'd try it but with wide elastic. Might be less visible and more comfy. 🦋
Omg thanks I don’t have a sewing machine and this was urgent tysm ❤
Life saver right here🖤✌
You are a life saver thankkk you soo much
tysmmmm this was so helpful
Wow ,i will definetly try this
this worked... thank you 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Gonna go get my dads jeans!
This is such a good hack ! Going to use it today thanks 🥰
Thank you so much this helped so much
That's so smart!
Thanks a very useful it works for my jeans shorts too
this hack saved my life
i don't usually need to tie any knots to secure the lace to the bobby pin. maybe because the bobby pins i had were all really tight, all i have to do is simply fold the shoelace 2 inches in from one end, slide the folded end in between the bobby pin, and it's secured. i find it easier to sting a drawstring without any knots inside (at least for men's running shorts, and pajamas). i used to restring the drawstrings a lot when i was little because i was too stupid to just tie a knot at the right place, and oftentimes, the drawstring would slip into the waistband. ironically, i was smart enough to use my mom's bobby pins to get the drawstring out.
Thnk u so much...now it's all fit ...😭😭💕
its 4 AM and i finished at 5… 😪 had some breaks in-between and my jeans have ALOT of stitches that block the shoe lace from getting to the other side so i ended up making barely noticeable tiny holes all over the place but now my jeans r finally wearable and im SOO relived and happy 🤗 i also had a weird gap in the front and it got rid of it
where'd you get that pendant? I have the same one and I think youre the only other person ive seen who has it
how do you take off the stitches/tags from the jeans?
Sure it may look scrunched afterwards but remember you can wear a belt too, to conceal it
This how u put the string of your ballet slippers. I forgot about this hack
I love this hack❤❤❤❤
You can also use a chopstick tapped to the lace
Nice channel and beautiful tips 🎁🤗
THANK YOUUU SO MUCH ❤
Great idea
took forever and my thumb feels like its broken. but so worth it 🙏🙏
I have some sweatpants that are too big in the waist and actually can’t be adjusted, could this hack work them?
I’m in shock that this worked
Wow
Thank you so much 😭😭💕

Okay so people might not trust this video but she really helped me so here’s some things you can do 1. When you are doing this make sure it’s a shoelace. (I used a shoelace from a shoe that I wore last year winter and because the shoe is not so cute.) 2. I wore the jeans on just to see what it looks like before I fixed it. (Literally fell off😭.) 3. I got some cramps on my thumb while pulling the shoelace though the waist part. 4. I put the hole where she put the hole it’s the perfect spot!! 5. After I put it through and pulled a piece out for me to tie I put the jeans on so that I can tie it obvi! 6. The last part when you’re finished zipping buttoning and tying unscrunch the jeans like kinda move the little scrunches to the back part!! 7. YOU’RE DONE!! Enjoy your jeans.
I WORKED AND ITS SUPER CUTE TYYYYYYYYYYSMMMMM

I had an elastic one of those from a hoodie. Kicking myself for not taking it with me when I moved.

I had the same issue with the label, I had to snip the label stitching to give the shoelace enough space to go through!

isn't it hard to get the shoelace all the way through the jeans?
What happens when they're being washed though?
You should make a clothing line like that
would this same method work on cargo’s ?
