MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Is it possible to “unshrink” clothes that shrink in the dryer?

We’ve all been there… that sweater or shirt you love comes out of the dryer looking like a toddler outfit. The worst! But is there a way to “unshrink” something? Luckily there it. Using a product you probably have in your house already.

This is going to sound wacky, but apparently all you have to do is soak the item in warm water with hair conditioner. Yes, the same stuff you use in the shower. Mix it in gently, then stretch the fabric back out. The conditioner actually helps loosen up the threads and expand it out to a normal size again.

You’re welcome.
