How to Unshrink a T-shirt?

Ahhhhh! Doing laundry is exhausting.

Do you know what happens if you don’t pay attention to the exact amount of heat needed for the clothes?

Make it too hot and you’ll kill all the moisture inside the clothes, leaving them shrunken like a zombie. Ooo0...maybe these Zombie-themed shirts by Yammeya will give you an idea. (Rest assured: only the design looks shrunk, our shirts are really crispy!)

So if after spending a hard day doing laundry, you’ve shrunk your clothes and turned your shirts into crop tops, this is the blog you need to save your life.  

ℹ️ Shhhh! We don’t collect your data to inform companies that you’ve shrunk your clothes so that they can shamelessly target you with annoying ads.

Don't worry. Just read on and follow our instructions. This is how you’ll get your clothes' soul (and size) back.

By using Borax or fabric softener

This is the oldest trick in the book.

1. Take a tub of lukewarm water
2. Buy a fabric softener or Borax from the grocery store (Not if you’re in lockdown, because then you’ll be bringing Corona home too)
3. Add a cup of fabric softener or borax in the tub—use a measuring cup instead of a tea cup for better results
4. Run your hands through the water to foam it up
5. Dunk the shrunken shirt in it

Let it chill for 30 minutes. Start reciting the spells suggested while wearing this halloween-themed shirt for the best magic effect 👻

6. Take it out and squeeze the drenched shirt with your bare hands.
7. Then stretch it out (Don't vent your frustration on this poor one, save some for others)
8. Hang it outside in the mild sunlight or let it air dry.

This method works on all types of clothes like cashmere, wool, denim, rayon etc., so don’t be afraid to give it a try for ALL your clothes.

In case you'd like to shrink your clothing again (because you have lost weight), read how to shrink them.
