Did you shrink your favorite shirt in the dryer, so now it's your favorite rag. Well, you can save it!
You might be able to UNSHRINK that shirt using something you have in your bathroom - Hair conditioner! It can make the fix for anything made of cotton. Here's how:
1. Fill a bucket with lukewarm water. Then add a few generaous squirts of conditioner, and mix it in. You can also do it in the sink.
2. Toss the piece of clothing in there for 15 to 30 minutes and let it soak. The conditioner should help the fibers loosen up and expand.
3. Take it out and gently squeeze the water out of it, but don't twist or wring it out. If it's full of conditioner, you can rinse it a little, but not too much.
4. Gently stretch it out and lay it out on a clean, dry towel, then roll it up. Rolling it should keep it in place, so it won't shrink back down.
5. Wait until it's mostly dry, and gently stretch the fabric again to get it back to its original shape.
6. Lay it out on another towel until it's fully dry. You might need to roll it up or weigh it down with something again, just to make sure it doesn't shrink. But hopefully, you'll end up with a shirt that fits again.
Good luck!
