How To Unshrink Jeans?

Fill a bathtub, sink, or large basin with lukewarm water

Add a small amount of hair conditioner or baby shampoo

Soak the jeans for 20 to 30 minutes

Remove the jeans and gently squeeze out excess water

Lay the jeans flat on a towel

Roll the towel with the jeans inside to absorb more water

Put the jeans on while slightly damp

Gently stretch the waistband, thighs, and legs by hand

Walk, squat, and move around to help reshape them

Use your hands to pull the fabric outward in the areas that shrank most

Let the jeans air dry while wearing them or while stretched flat

Repeat the process if needed

Wash jeans in cold water and air dry in the future to help prevent shrinking
