To begin, fill a container with warm water and add a small amount of baby shampoo or conditioner. Stir the mixture gently to ensure the product is well-dissolved. Next, immerse the shrunken item of clothing in the solution, allowing it to soak for about ten to fifteen minutes. This soaking process helps to relax the fibers of the fabric, enabling them to stretch back to their original size.
After soaking, carefully remove the clothing and pat it dry with a towel to absorb excess water. Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric, as this can cause further damage. Instead, lay the item flat on a clean, dry towel or a drying rack, allowing it to air dry horizontally. As the fabric dries, the fibers will gradually flatten and return to their initial dimensions.
