The following scenario might sound familiar: you put your favourite dress in the washing machine without paying too much attention to the settings.
Half an hour later, you go to take it out when you completely freak out after realising it's now half the original size.
But fear not because all is not lost. The truth is you can actually un-shrink your shrunken clothes. Yes, really.
So before you throw that gorgeous jumper into the charity bin pile, try this clever hack that we came across on Pinterest first:
All you need is some baby shampoo (or conditioner) and a sink. Here's what you have to do.
Fill your sink up with lukewarm water, make sure it's lukewarm and not hot - hot will make it shrink more.
Add 1/3 a cup of conditioner or baby shampoo to the water mixture, and soak your shrunken clothes in the mixture for half an hour.
Drain the sink, and squeeze excess water out of your sweater.
Pull your sweater out to the size you want it to be, and let it dry, once it's completely dry rinse the mixture out and let it air dry again.
And voilà your clothes will be as good as new. Finally, we now have a way to fix those little laundry mishaps. *Checking the care label is always a good call too.*
